Need Some Shade for Your Livestock?

Posted on June 18, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

If you own a farm with livestock, you know the importance of providing a shaded area to protect them from intense heat. Some farms might have soil rich enough in nutrients to increase the chances of trees growing there. But like us, trees can take 30 years to be fully grown, and not only that, a tree must be able to be establish itself with the area; and keep in mind the harsh conditions the tree might be exposed to.

 

A more beneficial option might be to install a multipurpose metal building that can protect your livestock as well as your belongings, such as farm equipment, from unpredictable weather. American Steel Carports specializes in the production of custom metal buildings to fit our customers’ needs and priorities.

 

When it comes to the length of our buildings, there’s no limit. Take a look at this 18′W × 61′L × 7′H building:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• 3′ Horizontal Sides

• Mobile Home Anchors

 

 

Side note: We highly recommend our customers opt for a vertical roof once the length of the building passes 30 feet. This will prevent future leaks, due to the sheet panels running from the peak of the building toward the eaves.

 

If you have questions about any of our metal buildings, feel free to contact us! Let one of our experts help you customize that metal building of your dreams. Remember, all our buildings are engineer certified! Don’t forget to ask about our financing options.

Big Enough Plus Additional Space!

Posted on June 11, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Product Reviews, Steel Structures

American Steel Carports provides customized metal buildings that will fulfill your special needs and expectations. Whether you’re planning on storing your vehicles, heavy machinery, or any of your belongings that might need protection from the harsh weather, American Steel Carports will have what you need! And with so many different designs, sizes, and colors to choose from, you can add your own personal touch!

 

When you’re planning to put up a metal unit, the first thing we always recommend is to know the size that you want. This will allow you to play around with measurements; whether we’re increasing length or width, it’s best to have additional space. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean that you need an extremely wide building to park your vehicles. Lean-tos are a smart option if you want to extend the width protection of your building for a lower price. Here is a clearer representation of what we’re talking about:

 

• 54’W x 31’L x 12’/8’H

• 30’W x 31’L x 12’H (center unit) 14-Gauge

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• Horizontal Sides

• Horizontal End

• Gable End

• 45 Degree Cuts

• 2 – 12’W x 31’L x 10’/8’H Lean-Tos

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

 

 

 

This metal building, more like an agricultural barn, is 54’ wide due to both lean-tos that are connected side to side. This is what we’re talking about when we refer to extending the width of your building in a smarter way.

 

 

*It’s recommended to keep lean-tos under 12’ wide. Once a lean-to overpasses 12’ wide, additional support and material will need to be added for an additional price. *

As a company, we know exactly the need of protection for our heavy equipment, and sometimes is not that easy to find something with the right amount of height and clearance in order for your toys to be well protected. Another reason why customers might get turned down, is because our flyers go all the way to 12’ tall. However, that doesn’t mean that we cannot go taller than 12’. In fact, the tallest we can go on ay metal building, is 20’ tall.

 

Since we’re talking about tall buildings, take a look at this 24’W x 26’L x 14’H metal building with the following features:

 

• 12-Gauge (20-year limited warranty on rust through of framing)

Metal Building with a Lean-To

Posted on April 17, 2017 by - A-Frame Horizontal, ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Questions, Steel Structures

Additional Extensions to Your Metal Storage Building

Lean-tos are very handy when it comes to additions. They don’t just offer protection—they can also serve as extra space or a small carport for your vehicle! Most of our customers prefer a 3-foot or larger drop on their lean-tos, but remember that it’s your choice how to enhance your metal building!

Types of Lean-Tos:

We offer two different styles when it comes to lean-tos. The first one is the regular drop lean-to. As explained earlier, this lean-to has a gap from the original height, coming down to whichever height you prefer.

The second style is a continuous lean-to, which means that there’s no gap in between the first height from the second one. You can see the sample of a continuous lean-to below:

What Makes American Steel Carports Different?

Unlike other companies, we provide the right number of trusses in order to protect our metal buildings from the environment. However, we also recommend that you acquire our concrete, mobile home, or asphalt anchors in order to avoid disastrous situations. Another of our features is that we count with a variety of sizes when it comes to roll-up and overhead doors.

Here is a great example of a metal building with a continuous lean-to.

  • 26’W x 31’L x 11’H
  • 14-Gauge Galvanized Tubing
  • A-Frame Horizontal Roof
  • 36″ x 72″ Walk-In Door (on the side)
  • 18 x 9 Roll-Up Door
  • 12 x 30 x 8 Continuous Lean-To
  • A-Frame Horizontal Roof
  • (1) Full Side
