Gable Unsymmetrical
<<back to productsA ridged (double slope) building in which the ridge is off-center
Gable: The triangular portion of the endwall from the level of the eave to the ridge of the roof.
Finish: Red Oxide Primer (standard), Grey Primer (available upon request)
Usage: Low rise construction
Limitations: Supports widths from 10' to 600' or more, heights from 10' to 100', clear spans up to 250' or more, and roof slopes of 1/4 : 12 up to 12 : 12
Features:
Designers have the capability of arranging sidewall columns that are straight or columns with the more economical tapered section
Fabricates all main framing in accordance with the company's strict AISC quality certification guidelines
Interior support columns available as either pipe sections or H sections
Frames come with welded subassemblies. Roof purlin and wall girt support plates are factory welded to the main frames
Purlins are supported laterally by the welded plates
Furnished all structural bolts with a corrosion protective plating
Frames are prefabricated as much as possible
End wall frames can be simple post and beam type construction, or can be built with a full interior type rigid frame to accommodate future expansion
Asymmetrical shape
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
End walls are furnished in a variety of configurations, again with the flexibility to meet any need
Economical savings on material costs and allows the end user to save on heating and cooling costs.
