Rigid Frame buildings are constructed with a skeletal primary structural steel design to carry the structural loading of the building. They are purpose built structures with a variety of wall and roof systems to meet a wide range of unique project requirements.
We offer custom designed steel buildings that are extremely rugged and suited for the harshest of climates. We will offer you a package at an affordable price and treat you in a manner that you would like to be treated. Every building will be custom tailored for the intended use and the location of erection. If it’s a residential garage, we will make sure you have the garage and window openings you require. If it’s a workshop for Vancouver Island we will make sure it is structurally sound for the seismic activity in that area. If it’s for the Gaspe, we will make sure it can take the heavy winds prone to that area. If it’s for the Arctic, we will make sure it is appropriately insulated so that your dog doesn’t freeze. Because that’s what we do – We give people what they want and make sure they get what they need.
How they are assembled
As you can see from the Figure A below, there are many components which comprise a pre-fabricated, pre-engineered Building System.
At VOD Steel Buildings, we are committed to sourcing the highest quality components that will comprise your building.
Each Rigid Frame Building sits on a Foundation (materials not provided) that you will need to prepare prior to erecting the building.
The main support structure for a rigid frame building are the Structural Steel Columns and Beams. Once they have been erected, the next step is to attach the purlins (to support the roof Sheeting) on the roof and the Girts on the walls (to support the wall sheeting)
If you order the high-quality blanket insulation packages, we have available, that gets wrapped around the building like a blanket. The insulation comes with a plastic liner that also acts as a vapour barrier and provides a 100% thermal break all around the building with NO gaps like in traditional construction.
The next step would be to install the exterior wall sheeting and the roof sheeting. You will have a choice of colors to choose from for the walls and Trim. Roof color is also available at a slight upgrade.
Once the building has been fully erected, you will want a door and window installer on hand to seal the building as quickly as possible to keep out the elements and the wildlife.
Our estimating and project management teams are fluent industry standards and will ensure the most cost effective and safe design is proposed.
Rigid Frame Straight Wall - Peaked Roof offers an unlimited number of optional features and is used for an unlimited number of applications. Double slope metal buildings can also be designed to be a-symmetrical, when customers require that the peak be off-set for a specific application.
Rigid Frame Straight Wall - Sloped Roof building is used for several specific applications ranging from agricultural storage, to commercial facilities with solar panel installations. Single slope is well suited in spaces with multiple structures to accommodate snow shadow from existing buildings.
Whether you are looking for a storage shed, a workshop, or any other residential building, we have the solution for you. Additionally, we can handle any of your commercial or industrial building needs.
Mezzanines utilize the unused space in facilities that have high ceilings. Whether it's for additional floorspace, office space, work zones, and overall storage we can be your one stop shop. There are 2 types of mezzanines Free Standing and those integrated into the building columns.
Insulation options from R4 (2”thick ) to R60 (18” thick). Most popular insulation type is WMP line of Blanket insulation which comes in an R-Value of between R4 and R38. It comes in 4 ft x 100 ft rolls and is blanketed over the frame of the building. It comes with a complete plastic lining system and the white sealing tape to form a 100% vapor thermal barrier around the building.
You will receive a colour chart to choose your wall and trim colour (Trim is framed openings, Framed openings, Corner trim, Base Trim and Eve Trim). This is a standard service for our straight wall buildings. Most colours are standard but there are some upgrade colours. Galvalume is the standard colour choice for the roof since it does the best job of reflecting the sun’s UV rays. We can of course accommodate roof colour as well. This is an upgrade to the standard package but well worth it if aesthetics are of primary concern such as in a residential application.
There are walk in door options that include the following standard sizes: 3x7,4x7 and 6x7, with heh 6x7 being a double door option. All walk in doors are available either insulated or non insulated.
The single slope building is used for several specific applications ranging from agricultural storage, to commercial facilities with solar panel installations. Single slope is well suited in spaces with multiple structures to accommodate snow shadow from existing buildings.
They come in basic standard sizes 2x7, 2x6, 3x5, 3x5. We offer any size framed openings so you can always get a custom made window locally to fit any custom framed opening.
