Steel Indoor Sports Facility

“A steel sports complex offers a cost effective, flexible, low maintenance and energy efficient structure that can be designed to fit almost any situation.”

Most indoor sports buildings require large open spaces. One of the great advantages of steel indoor sports buildings is you can maintain a clear-span of up to 300 ft wide. Having a large space that is column-free, you gain the flexibility to satisfy even the most complex space design needs while still maintaining an obstacle free environment. If you have some flexibility and don’t mind having columns, a multi-span metal building Frame Design can save you money.

Although there are several pre-fabricated steel building companies to choose from, it’s important to know that we are definitely not created equal.

Structural

Purlin Extensions

A purlin extension is an unsupported overhang on an end wall providing protection from the elements as well as adding an architectural look to your building. A standard purlin extension is between 1 and 5 feet.



Canopy

A canopy is the same thing as a purlin extension with the exception that it is on the side wall.



Periput

A periput is a wall that extends beyond the eave height of the building. It is used as an architectural feature as well as to hide roof mounted air conditioning units and accessories. A periput can be accomplished by using structural steel or light weight aluminum or steel studs.


Light Weight Aluminum or Steel Stud Application

Mansurd

Mansurd’s come in many different shapes and sizes and are used as an architectural feature on steel buildings. Below are a few examples.



Point Load

A point load is a structural enhancement on a building that allows you to mount large or heavy accessories to a steel building. A point load is usually accompanied by a structural framed opening. A point load can be from 200 pounds to thousands. Point loads include air conditioning units, steeples, basketball goals, etc. Below are some examples.



Cranes

Both supported and unsupported cranes can be designed into a steel building. There are many different crane companies to choose from. Before a quote on a steel building can be given, we must obtain a specification sheet from the crane manufacturer.



Mezzanine

Mezzanine is another term for a second floor. There are 3 types of mezzanines; stick built, steel frame with a wood sub-floor, and steel frame with a metal pan and light weight concrete floor. Although the cost of a mezzanine is significantly higher per square foot, by going taller as opposed to wider you don’t have the added expense of concrete. When quoting a mezzanine, it is important for us to know the amount of weight per square foot that the mezzanine needs to support. This is usually determined by the use of the mezzanine. For example: office space, machinery, seating, etc. You may want to check with your local building department as to what their requirements for adding an additional floor would be. For example: they may require a wood floor or a concrete floor, elevator, number of staircases, or wheel chair accessibility. See photos below.

Steel VS Conventional

Steel buildings offer a cost effective, flexible, low maintenance and energy efficient structure that can be designed to fit almost any situation.

10 Reasons for Going with Steel vs. Conventional

  1. Cost – Typical conventional construction including (kitchens, bathrooms, etc…) can range from $100-$125 per sq. ft. or higher, depending on your location. Steel buildings normally range from $50-$70 per sq. ft. including (kitchens, bathrooms, etc…).
  2. Clear Span – With conventional construction you can go up to 80 ft. wide and maintain a clear span. The wider you go the more expensive it becomes. Steel buildings can go up to a 300 ft. wide and maintain a clear span.
  3. Warranty – You typically get a 1 year warranty with conventional construction. Our steel buildings come with a LIFETIME warranty on the structure and 25 year warranty on the paint.
  4. Maintenance – Using conventional construction methods requires a great deal of maintenance, such as paint, shingles, siding etc. With steel buildings, you simply power spray once a year.
  5. The Elements - The elements affect conventional construction and steel buildings very differently.

    Wind: Our buildings can be designed to withstand a 160 mph sustained wind.

    Fire: You can burn a conventional construction building down with one match. You can take a flamethrower to the side of a steel building and do little more than harm the paint.

    Water: We have a red oxide coating on our steel that acts as a rust inhibitor. Steel will not soak up water or have mold problems that are found in conventional construction.

  6. Pests/Termites – Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent on conventional construction buildings each year due to termite damage. No problem with steel. We have yet to discover a termite that can chew through a main frame I-beam.
  7. Flexibility – Expansion on conventional construction buildings can be expensive and sometimes impossible. Steel buildings allow you the flexibility to expand in almost any size or shape in a very cost effective manner.
  8. Pre-Engineered – Using a Pre-Engineered steel building provides a fast, economical and efficient way to construct your building. Our buildings are precut, pre-punched, pre-drilled, and pre-welded virtually eliminating human error. Show me the straightest 2x4 you can find and I will show you a bent piece of wood. With a pre-engineered building you simply line up the holes and bolt it together. A conventional building can take several months to complete. A pre-engineered building can be put up in as little as a few days.
  9. 6 sets of Engineer Stamped Blueprints - We provide 3 sets of permit drawings and 3 sets of construction drawings. All sets are engineered and stamped for your city, county and state building codes including snow, wind, seismic and exposure ratings.
  10. Exterior Options - As with conventional construction buildings, steel buildings can be designed to support any exterior such as brick, stone, stucco etc.
