If your business is needing to expand their usable space, what better way to increase your space than using a prefabricated metal building (or PEMB)? Here at Reel Steel Construction Inc., we offer Florida the very best in prefabricated buildings so you can focus on all the extra room you’ll soon have.
Early Metal Buildings
The first pre-engineered metal buildings of the 1960s were certainly a lot less advanced, offering only a few options dependent on size and width, and not much else. These buildings have certainly grown and become more advanced in recent years, but were still mostly utilized for industrial and manufacturing facilities. Pre-engineered metal buildings have been designed and constructed to utilize already manufactured system components, like horizontal wind girts, roof purlins, and metal roof decks. This makes them more economical and efficient in producing quality enclosed spaces, especially when the dimensions needed are wide and vast. Most people will picture these buildings for airplane hangers, warehouses, and extra storage spaces on people’s property for ATV’s or boats. With the availability of more colors, textures and shapes to choose from, metal buildings are getting a revamp and are becoming a quick go-to for commercial buildings. You may be surprised but these buildings are gaining traction for other uses, commonly seen now for schools, office buildings, strip malls, banks, churches and government facilities, among other businesses.
Prefabricated Metal Buildings
Anyone who has previously used PEMB’s knows how easy and cost efficient they can be. Since their construction is straight forward, repetitive, and uses standard components for each building, they are cheaper than many other standard buildings and easier to assemble. You can easily get a larger model without forking over as much money as conventional construction jobs. And in recent years, these pre-engineered buildings have been increasingly receiving “makeovers”, getting more aesthetically pleasing facades, which can transform them into traditional businesses easier than having to hire a construction company to do the heavy lifting and building, thus making them more versatile in their uses. These buildings come shipped all in one set, ready to be built and fully utilized, making them highly cost efficient when compared to building a physical structure with contractors, where the prices can fluctuate. It also means there’s no construction time, as builders can start constructing the metal building right away, and there’s no need for any welding or cutting in the construction process. The strength of these prefabricated buildings is superb, having a specialty coating applied to its components for added durability and resistance to dirt and corrosion. And if you find yourself running out of space quicker than you thought, they can easily be expanded or added onto so you can get the additional space you need to get the job done.
Setting Up A PEMB
Keep in mind there are some tips and tricks to ensure your prefabricated building gets constructed right the first time to avoid any complications down the road. With limited components and parts involved in the construction makes the process much easier, you still want to ensure everything arrives as it should. It’s important to “shake out” before the actual construction begins, which is when you lay out all the pieces and parts to your building and compare it to what should be delivered to make sure you have everything you need, and all the pieces are accounted for. Alerting your crew to what the purpose of the building will be can better help in its construction, as some fasteners and components will work more efficiently depending on the building’s use, and if the crew is aware of this they can better construct the metal building to fit your needs.
