Superior Structures Pre-Engineered Steel Buildings

Building designs will meet local codes and loading

Superior can design, provide, erect, and build the project from start to finish. The buildings are for any type of application. Aviation, Agriculture to Commercial and Residential, send us your drawings and ideas and we can design and build to your needs. 

Pre-engineered Steel Buildings Frame Designs

Clear Span Double Slope

Main Frames / Secondary Framing

Solid I-Beam construction for optimum strength

 Building material used is minimum 50,000 p.s.i. yield strength (some manufacturers use 36,000 p.s.i. yield strength material, which is not as strong). By using a higher yield strength material, a smaller web can be utilized which means a space saving design.
Steel building frames are single bead; continuous arc welded by automatic welding machines (this helps ensure quality control). A factory primer coat is applied to help protect them during the building erection process. End Wall Frames and Columns are either cold formed, mill-rolled or built-up "I" sections depending on design requirements. 

Secondary Framing Girts & Purlins

Secondary Framing Girts & Purlins are 8", 10", or 12" to meet design requirements.
Cold rolled Z-section, 13 to 16 ga. ASTM A-570, 55,000 p.s.i. yield material is used to provide maximum strength. 

Girt System

 Bypass girt system overlaps at sidewall columns forming a continuous "beam" for extra strength. 

Purlin System

Purlins are top-mounted on the rafter with a varied lap of 2' to 6' for strength and cost savings in erection labor. Maximum purlin spacing is 5' on center. 

Eave Strut

Eave Strut is a cold-formed C-Section that is rolled for the appropriate roof pitch, to help insure weather tightness at the eave. 

Base Condition

Sheeting angle is a continuous sheeting angle supplied for the attachment of the sheeting at the rake of the steel or metal building for ease of installation.
Base angle is a continuous angle, supplied for the attachment of the base of the sheeting to the concrete. It is attached to the concrete with ram-sets and/or equivalent anchors by others.

Base formed trim is an option also when a sheet notch is not available. It is included in the trim package when needed.

Base girt can be added also when the building has no floor and is added to support the base of the wall sheet.

Bracing Condition

Bracing diagonal rod or cable bracing may be supplied for roof and walls to remove longitudinal load from the structure.
Angle Flange Bracing is provided for the connection of the rigid frame to the purlins and girts. This ensures that allowable compression levels are adequate for any combination of loadings. Purlin bridging angles may be provided at each mid-bay to assure consistent purlin spacing and stiffening.

Portal framed are used in conditions when the bay requires open area, doors, windows or other building products that can not be blocked by diagonal bracing.
