2019 Johnson County Junior Livestock Show and Youth Fair

American Steel Carports recently had the opportunity to attend the 2019 Johnson County Junior Livestock Show and Youth Fair. As a locally-based company, it is extremely important to us to support our local community as often as possible. We especially appreciate the chance to support the kids and young adults in the community because they are our future generation. It was truly our pleasure to donate a check to the Johnson County Livestock and Agricultural Association, and it was great to be there in person to support and congratulate these youth on all their hard work.

Most people do not realize how much hard work, time, and money goes into raising these animals in order to show them at a livestock show. These Future Farmers of America (FFA) students are entirely responsible for buying the animals and taking care of them. Some of their responsibilities include fencing, feeding, watering, cleaning troughs, grooming, cleaning pens, and observing the animals daily to watch for sickness and disease. FFA projects help our kids learn basic life skills that will eventually help them become better citizens by teaching them responsibility and helping them set goals, all while teaching them the knowledge of livestock production.

While showing support on behalf of American Steel Carports, I was able to interact with the FFA students and their livestock. These FFA students compete in 12 different divisions with animals such as chickens, goats, lamb, cows, turkeys, pigs, and rabbits. The goats were my personal favorite. As I was talking to one of the students, she introduced me to her goat, Ranger. He was so sweet and loving, but very hungry. Ranger tried to eat everything he saw, including my fingers. It was so sweet to watch Ranger interact with his owner. There was a bond there that really opened my eyes to these kids and raising their livestock.

It was our pleasure to donate to the Johnson County Livestock & Agricultural Association (JCLAA) because of all they do for the kids of this community. This association gives out over $28,000 in scholarships every year to the students who participate to further their education. This scholarship money helps them protect their current assets as well as invest in future ones.

Like JCLAA, American Steel Carports wants to protect our customers’ current and future assets by not only donating to this community, but also by building strong, durable, versatile, and engineer certified buildings. We proudly provide loafing sheds, agriculture barns, and storage units that protect their precious livestock through every season. It was our pleasure to attend the Johnson County Junior Livestock Show and Youth Fair. We hope to see them again next year.

 

Standard Barns With a Modern Look

When we say that our metal buildings are versatile, we’re not kidding! We can take the design of a building and transform it completely into your own personal structure. With twenty years of experience in the carport industry, we build all our metal structures to last for many years.

This next agricultural building might surprise you, since it doesn’t look like a typical barn, and the standard roof and lean-tos can be misleading because the roof curves on the sides, unlike in our A-Frames. The connections on both lean-tos makes them look astonishing, and the color combination stands out from the background.

Main unit: 30’W x 51’L x 12’H (12-Gauge), full horizontal sides & ends, a 10’x10 Roll-up door, (2) walk-in doors, (4) windows, and (2) 12’W x 51’L x 8’H Lean-Tos. 

If this kind of building is something you might be interested on, you’re on the right place! We offer a great variety of sizes, designs, and color combinations to suit your preferences.

Please keep in mind that our customer decided to pour a concrete slab to place this building; this isn’t required. As long as your land is level, we can anchor the building with mobile home anchors and add our 90-mph wind warranty, which is completely optional.

Don’t wait too long and give us a call to speak with one of our representatives! We can help you envision the metal building that you’re looking for at the right price. Don’t forget to ask about our financing options!

Did you know our concrete anchors are INCLUDED?

If you’re planning to have a metal building on a concrete pad, our concrete anchors will be included, which means that our 90-mph wind warranty will be included too! Be aware that some restrictions apply: if your concrete pad is the same size as the frame of the unit, we will have to include “L” brackets to anchor the building without chipping the edges of the slab.

Cold Season Is Coming Soon!

Are all your belongings protected from this coming winter? Are you ready for the low temperatures? It’s been rumored that this year’s temperatures are going to be really cold. At least here in Texas, the temperatures haven’t dropped—if anything, they’ve been high. However, let’s not underestimate Mother Nature, and let’s be cautious when it comes to protecting our important possessions.

Many of our belongings tend to sit outside in our backyard, leaving them exposed to the elements. That’s especially true for farm equipment or tools, which can be very expensive. If you own machinery, farm tools, or multiple vehicles, this 44’W x 31’L x 12.8’H vertical barn might be beneficial for you:

 

This agricultural barn comes fully vertical and fully insulated, main unit (24’W x 31’L x 12’H), two (2) 10’W x 31’L x 10’/8’H Lean-Tos, four roll-up doors (two 10’ x 10’ and two 8’ x 7’), a walk-in door, and eight windows. Remember, insulation is optional.

We can customize any metal building according to your needs and preferences! Talk to one of our sales representatives and get started with a FREE quote. Your future metal building can be one call away! Don’t forget to ask about our financing options.

Agricultural Barn

 

Metal agricultural buildings offer great protection for farm equipment and even livestock, but these traditional units are not only for farm use. In fact, many of our customers opt to construct a metal agricultural barn for their vehicles. Since these lean-tos can be open or closed, there’s always the advantage of enclosing your lean-to and transforming it into a little storage room.

 

Here is a good example of a metal agricultural building being used alternatively than the traditional farm use:

 

18’W x 31’L x 12’H (Main Unit)

• A-Frame Horizontal Roof

• 2 – 10′ x 10′ Roll-Up Doors (one on each end)

 

12’W x 31’L x 10’/8’H (Lean-To’s)

• A-Frame Horizontal Roof

• Double Walk-in Door (right lean-to)

• 9′ x 7′ Roll-Up Door (left lean-to)

• Concrete Anchors (90-MPH Wind Warranty)

 

 

Please note that American Steel Carports does not offer any type of concrete work and your surface must be level in order to get the unit installed.

 

This metal unit is fully enclosed with our double walk-in doors and our A-frame horizontal roof (boxed eave), which give it a unique look.

 

You can order yours, too! Give us a call and let one of our sales representatives help you customize your metal agricultural barn today. With the variety of options we offer, there’s so much to choose from. Don’t forget to ask about our financing options or click here for more information.

Ready For the Summer with Your Future Metal AG Barn?

Let the summer season begin!

 

Today can be the appropriate time to start looking for a metal building that will protect your livestock from the burning sun. Most southern regions tend to be affected by high seasonal temperatures, so it’s very important to keep your livestock safe and protected from that heat.

 

What about strong winds?

 

We can certify your metal building to stand against inclement weather. The pricing will vary depending on your area, since some regions might receive stronger winds than others. However, we believe that it’s better to add protection and be safe at all times.

 

How can a unit get certified for winds?

 

As mentioned above, it all depends on which region you’re located in. To ensure the specific wind rates, it is necessary to contact your city or visit your local city building department. Moving forward, the main protection is the addition of extra anchors. Remember, we do offer rebar anchors (temporary anchors) for free, but they do not offer any type of guarantee. For security against up to 90-mph winds, it’s far better to get our mobile home, asphalt, or concrete anchors. If you expect winds that are even stronger than 90 mph, we can add more supports and anchors to engineer certify your building up to 120 mph.

 

With all of this valuable information, you don’t have to worry! You can choose the type of carport and design that you like the most without having to think about the weather. This customer in Loving, New Mexico decided to get a 48’W x 31’L x 12/7’H  agricultural metal building:
