Tension Fabric Buildings With Rigid Frame, Structural Steel

Legacy buildings utilize a durable rigid frame in place of the hollow-tube, open web truss framing traditionally used for fabric buildings. Unlike hollow tube steel, Legacy’s solid structural steel beams are not vulnerable to unseen corrosion originating inside a tube.

South Haven, MN — Combining superior quality rigid frame engineering with the proven benefits of tension fabric, Legacy Building Solutions offers the industry’s first line of fabric buildings to incorporate structural steel beams instead of open web trusses. This engineering concept provides a high level of flexibility for a wide range of applications, including commodity storage and commercial and industrial warehousing. Legacy buildings utilize a durable rigid frame in place of the hollow-tube, open web truss framing traditionally used for fabric buildings. Unlike hollow tube steel, Legacy’s solid structural steel beams are not vulnerable to unseen corrosion originating inside a tube. Additionally, the structural steel has multiple coating options, including hot dip galvanizing, red oxide primer and powder coat paint. The strength of the structural steel frame provides several engineering advantages, most notably the flexibility to customize buildings beyond the confines of standard sizes to the exact width, length and height required. The design allows for much wider doors than possible with web truss, and adding side doors is simple as well. Structures can be modified to provide desired eave extensions and interior columns. They can also be engineered to handle additional loads for conveyors, sprinklers and even commodity loads on the sidewalls.
