Benefits:

Flexible design providing for maximum utilization of interior space.

The benefit of the quality fabrication practice is the reduction in building assembly labor, and subsequently lower erection cost.

Wider buildings are feasibly more economical

Saves erection time and increases the overall stiffness of the building

Reduces the amount of purlin roll experienced under heavy loading

Improves the appearance of the building and helps to speed up erection process, and no more rusted bolts to contend with

Eliminates costly field work needed to "customize" the frames for specific building configurations
