  1. Industrial Storage Buildings The use of fabric is changing the face of industrial storage buildings across North America, as new technology makes it possible to create structures and features that were only dreamed of previously. Thanks to advancements in fabric building technology, there are now many new features and options available that meet a wide range of needs and demands. For many types of industrial storage buildings, form follows function, meaning that the building should be designed around the operation. One example of this is how collateral loads are placed in a building. For example, bulk storage, manufacturing, and light industrial work are more efficient if collateral equipment is supported from below. This saves valuable square footage that is put to better use on revenue-driving activities. Fabric buildings with steel frame support can be customized to meet your individual needs, without costing extra for any unnecessary building square footage or additional items. Thanks to new technology, fabric buildings built on a rigid steel frame have straight sidewalls, which frees up more usable space in the building than previous fabric buildings. Materials can be stored to the edges of the building and it improves the amount of space available to operate equipment. With straight sidewalls, industrial storage buildings made of fabric can be any height that is needed. Some activities require additional overhead space, which makes fabric an ideal choice. Another consideration is accessibility, not just for workers, but also for equipment and machinery. Fortunately, fabric buildings can have multiple doors to allow for quick entry or exit, or implement a separate entry path for people and machinery. In some industrial storage buildings, interior support columns can create concerns. They are typically always in an awkward spot and difficult to navigate around. Thanks to the latest technology in fabric buildings, the rigid steel frame doesn’t require interior supports and can be up to 300 plus feet wide without any support columns. The fabric buildings of today are safe and long-lasting, built to meet the needs of the people that are using them. Look for frames that offer excellent resistance to corrosion. Low temperature silicone-bronze welding in conjunction with pre-galvanized steel is one of the gold standards for long lasting frames. Some buildings have a life expectancy of up to 50 years in general use, even in corrosive environments. No matter what type of building you are looking at, every building must be on budget, while providing the right space for the building’s purpose. Before designing a fabric industrial storage building, reach out to an expert for feedback and advice. The right builder will guide you through the process of planning, design, engineering and construction, so that the successfully completed fabric building will fully meet all your needs and expectations.
