15 Ft. Tall!

Posted on May 29, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Promotions

When we refer to tall buildings, it’s because we’re talking about tall buildings. Prior to customization, we can make your buildings as tall as 20 feet, keeping in mind that they will be engineer-certified.

 

We can always work with your desired dimensions, and we offer skylights, insulation, and bigger roll-up doors to enhance your building. The idea is to customize your metal building to your needs. Whether you need a workshop or a garage, American Steel Carports will be there to help you build the structure of your dreams.

 

One of our customers from Arizona came up with this magnificent idea for a building that’s 15 feet tall. Check it out:

 

• 24’W x 41’L x 15’H

 

• 12-Gauge Galvanized Tubing

 

• A-frame Vertical Roof

• 8×8 Roll-Up Door

 

• 36″ x 80″ Walk-In Door (on the side)

 

• 4 – 3×8 Skylights

 

• Diagonal Bracing (support)

 

• Concrete Anchors (90-MPH Wind Warranty)

 

*Disclaimer: interior designs may vary by state or region*

Amazing Metal Buildings Come from Amazing Ideas.

Posted on May 2, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

Most of our designs come from our customers’ most valuable ideas—the ideas that complement the very idea of what a metal building is. Customization helps us implement these ideas.

When it comes to customized metal buildings, our clients’ biggest fear is that our units won’t withstand harsh weather. To verify your specific local wind rates, you’ll have to contact your city’s building department. But the main protection we offer is the addition of anchors. We do offer rebar anchors (temporary anchors) for free, although they don’t come with any guarantee. Much better are our asphalt and concrete mobile home anchors, which have a warranty for winds of up to 90 mph.

What happens if the winds are stronger?

If the winds are stronger, we start by adding more trusses. In some cases, we add bigger peak and corner braces.

American Steel Carports does not do any concrete work, but we do offer our customers recommendations for concrete foundations. This a good example of one of our customers in Portales, New Mexico:

• 22′ x 26′ x 10′

• A-Frame Horizontal Roof

• 14-Gauge Galvanize Tubing

• 3 – 9×7 Roll-Up Doors (2 on left side, 1 on right side)

• 36×80 Walk-In Door (front end)

• 12′ x 26′ x 10’/8′ Lean-To

• Continuous Roof

• 25′ Double Bar Header (for Lean-To)

*DISCLAIMER: Headers may vary upon county regulations or snow loads. Prices are subject to change at any time without notice. Please contact our sales department for our latest prices.*

If you have any specific requirements, don’t hesitate to let our sales representatives know. Together we can develop your ideas and make them come true. We can create sketches to help you fully visualize them and make sure that every little detail has been taken care of.

We also offer financing! Click here to check the requirements and see our applications, or give us a call to get more information. You can keep up with our most recent installs if you click on our blog section.

Simple, Small, but Resistant

Posted on April 25, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Questions, Steel Structures

 

At American Steel Carports, we want our buildings to meet all your needs and expectations. We can accommodate your specific requirements, especially when it comes to building permits. We can add as much material as it takes to get the unit fully protected and certified to the requirements of the city.

It is important that you talk to your local building department to verify all the state codes, because not all states or even cities within a state have the same ones.

 

 

What if you need extra spacing on the sides?

 

Our buildings come with specific numbers of legs to withstand the wind and other elements. But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing we can do to customize to your needs. Here is a notable example of a carport for a customer who decided to add two headers to the sides for extra spacing or to park a small vehicle:

 

• 10’W x 21’L x 8’H

• 12-Gauge galvanized tubing

• A-Frame Vertical Roof (Earth Brown)

• 2 – 9′ Header (one on each side)

• Concrete Anchors (90-mph wind warranty)

 

 

The outcome was beautiful, and the colors matched the house and the environment. Please be aware that headers will reduce the side opening height by approximately 6″ – 24″ depending on state codes and length of the header. We will have to reinforce the structure with extra material in order to provide durability.

 

You can come up with your own ideas. If you have a project in mind, don’t hesitate to give us a call! A sales representative will go over the project with you so that we can find just the metal building you’re looking for. We can also draw sketches to ensure that customization and features, such as doors, windows, gables, siding, and headers, are in the right places before you make your final decision.

Custom Metal Building From Arkansas

Posted on September 15, 2016 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

We want to make sure that we meet all your expectations and provide you with high-quality products, most importantly with certified buildings that will last for years.

 

Many of our customers add lean-tos to their structures, and the way they use them varies with their specific needs. This 30’W x 61’L x 12’H metal structure built in Arkansas is a perfect example of how our buildings can be adapted to a residential style. It also uses our new deluxe windows, and has the A-frame vertical roof style on both the structure itself and the lean-to.

 

• 2 – 10’x8 Roll-Up Doors (front and back)

• 6 – Windows

• Walk-In Door (on the side)

• 12’W x 61’L x 11’/8’H Lean-To

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• Gable End

 

 

 

A-Frame Vertical Roofs allow for easy maintenance because the panels are all siding, from the peak to the eaves. They let water, snow, and dirt run off easily.

 

Impressive, isn’t it? And we can change the building’s dimensions to suit your needs. This is just a small preview of what we can offer you. Remember, it’s your ideas that make the difference with your metal buildings. And with thirteen (13) colors to choose from, you can add your personal touch.

Hexagonal Barn in New Mexico

Posted on August 25, 2016 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Product Reviews

 

American Steel Carports takes pride in having happy and satisfied customers when it comes to building their own creations. Because steel can be easily customized, we can transform any kind of design into a reality, not to mention that we will certify your creation to last for many years.

 

 

Do you have any drawings? No problem—our engineering department will take care of turning your drawings into a unique design.

 

 

Take, for example, this incredible building with a hexagonal roof and a lean-to. Our customer didn’t mention what the structure would be used for; however, the unit can be used as a barn to store farm equipment, hay, and animal feed.

18x26x9 Hexagonal Roof Vertical Siding, with a Lean-To of 10x26x7. 2 Windows, 10×10 Roll-Up Door, 36×80 Walk-In Door

 

 

The structure was made with 12-gauge tubing, which automatically gives the building a 20-year warranty on rust-through of the framing. In addition, the hexagonal roof is in vertical style; this kind of roofing is the most recommendable when it comes to maintenance. Because the sheets are placed vertically, water, snow, leaves, or dirt will run-off very easily without the need of a constant care.

 

This kind of vertical style on a horizontal roof makes the structure a unique American Steel Carports feature.

Steel Wide Span Buildings

Posted on July 15, 2016 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, News/Press

American Steel Carports has been the leading steel carport manufacturer in its industry time and time again, serving over 30 states and specializing in steel structures such as garages, lean-tos, and mini storages. It’s no wonder why customers recognize our steel buildings all over the United States. American Steel Carport’s is constantly pushing steel buildings to the next level—but did you know that American Steel Carports has the skills and manpower to build industrial-sized steel wide buildings? Our industrial-sized steel wide buildings are standard-built in widths of between 32-40 ft. and lengths of up to 50 ft. However, our steel wide span units can be built up to an impressive 80 ft. wide and a sky-scraping 20 ft. in leg height, most often requiring the use of machinery.* If that wasn’t impressive enough, our wide spans can be made to meet almost any length specifications. Because of our wide span framing systems, we make it easy for you to add future extensions to your steel buildings as your needs grow.

 

 

American Steel Carports’ metal wide spans are made in both our 12 and 14-gauge acrylic-coated galvanized C/Z tubing, ensuring that they have the strongest frames possible. They are built with our heavy duty A-frame vertical roof as an only option. When enclosing a wide span unit, you will notice that the side and end panels are also installed vertically. This style will give your structure maximum strength.

 

 

When a customer decides to place an order for a wide span building, however, there are a few things that they should know. First, all wide spans must be installed on concrete piers, slabs, or footers. There are a number of reasons why this is required, but the main one is to ensure the durability and longevity of the structure’s placement. Although American Steel Carports does not pour concrete or do any concrete work, we staff the most educated engineers in the industry, and they will always be happy to assist you with any questions as well as offer recommendations regarding your foundation. In addition, from our experiences with installing large units, customers who purchase wide span buildings will most likely be required to obtain construction permits. Although American Steel Carports leaves the responsibility of contacting their local code enforcement to its customers, our company will make it easy for you to obtain a copy of the generic plans or certified blueprints of your structure.**

 

 

From steel mini storages to metal wide spans, no size is too small or too big. Let American Steel Carports be your number one choice for your next project. Protect your heavy duty equipment or expand your business with an American Steel wide span unit today.

*Customers will be charged an additional fee for the rental of heavy duty equipment.

 

**Generic plans are offered to customers at no charge once a deposit has been made. However, certified blueprints will have a fee for their composition and calculations.
