Windy Valley

Project Overview: Steel Frame Industrial Unit for Mechanic’s Workshop

​

In one of our most challenging and exciting projects to date, BES Steel Buildings successfully erected a steel frame industrial unit in the midst of 90+ mph winds from Storm Dylan. This build, designed to provide a fully equipped workspace for a mechanic, stands as a testament to our expertise, adaptability, and dedication to quality.

Understanding the Customer's Needs

 

Following an initial consultation with our customer onboarding manager, we arranged a site visit to better understand the client’s needs and assess the locational challenges. Situated in a valley with significant exposure to high winds and harsh weather, the site presented unique demands for structural resilience and longevity.

 

Armed with this knowledge, we worked closely with the client to design a solution tailored to their needs. The final plan included structural bracing for increased wind loads, a robust concrete floor with a fully equipped service pit, and durable 200-micron plastic-coated cladding to protect the building from the elements.

Versatility of Steel Buildings

​

While this building was tailored for use as a mechanic’s workshop, its adaptable design makes it suitable for a variety of applications, including warehouses, agricultural storage, and manufacturing units. Steel frame buildings offer unparalleled flexibility, allowing for future expansions or modifications to meet evolving needs.

Cost-Effective Strength and Longevity

Steel buildings are one of the most cost-effective construction options available.

  • Strength: Steel’s inherent durability ensures the building can endure harsh weather and heavy use.

  • Value: The quick construction process and low maintenance requirements make steel an economical choice for businesses.

Key Features and Benefits of the Build

 

  • Structural Bracing for Wind Loads
    Recognizing the high winds at the site, we incorporated advanced structural bracing into the steel frame design.

    • Enhanced Strength: The bracing ensures the building can withstand extreme weather conditions.

    • Safety: The additional reinforcement provides peace of mind, even in challenging environments.

  • Concrete Floor with Service Pit
    The workspace features a reinforced concrete floor and a fully equipped pit, ideal for the client’s needs as a mechanic.

    • Durability: Concrete is long-lasting and capable of withstanding heavy equipment and vehicle loads.

    • Functionality: The service pit enhances productivity by providing safe and efficient access to vehicles.

  • 200-Micron Plastic-Coated Cladding
    The building is finished with high-performance cladding designed for longevity and protection.

    • Weather Resistance: The cladding provides superior protection against rain, wind, and UV exposure.

    • Low Maintenance: Its durable coating reduces the need for ongoing upkeep, saving time and money.
