Structural Designs to Meet the Most Demanding Needs

Each SSBC structural system is designed by professional engineers to provide truly exceptional choices in form and function. You are certain to find a structure that is right for your needs. More economical to build because they require less time and labor to erect at your construction site. These high quality structures are remarkably energy efficient and have significantly lower maintenance costs than comparable structures made from more traditional building materials.

Rigid Frame Clear Span

• Provides a large area of clear, unobstructed space.
• Excellent choice for sports arenas, aircraft hangars, gymnasiums, showrooms, and other uses that need wide, column-free interiors.
• Suitable for structures from 30' to 160'+ wide.
• Eave heights from 10' to 35'+.

Rigid Frame Multi-Span

• Suitable for large manufacturing facilities and warehouses where interior columns do not impair function or traffic flow.
• The columns allow for the use of shorter or lighter rafter-beams and this can result in a reduction in frame cost.
• Depending upon the number of columns this system can be used in structures from 80' to 300'+ in width.
• Eave heights typically range from 12' to 30'+.

Lean-To

• Perfect for an add-on to give additional space in existing facilities, some types of agricultural applications, and for wing units to a larger central building.
• This structure can be used with any other framing system with the roof line at the eave of the main building or below.
• From 10' to 50'+ in width.
• Eaves from 10' to 30'+.

Tapered Beam

• Perfect for offices, retail stores, and agricultural uses.
• Provides straight sidewall columns and flat bottom rafter members that allow for easy interior framing and finishing.
• With its uniform depth side columns it provides constant vertical and horizontal clearance across the entire width of the structure.
• Widths from 20' to 60'+.
• Eave heights of 10' to 16'+.

Single Slope

• Typically used for shopping centers and office complexes where clean structural lines are important.
• Suitable to a wide variety of architectural treatments and finishes.
• Provides a single direction of roof slope that not only looks attractive, it gives control over rainfall drainage and runoff.
• For structures from 20' to 60'+ in width.
• Eave heights to 30'+.

Single Slope Multi-Span

• Exceptionally clean profile and single slope for rainwater runoff control.
• Excellent when more size is needed and interior columns will not interfere with the building's function.
• Uses include manufacturing, retail shopping centers, warehouse complexes, and office parks.
• Widths from 50' to 150'+.
• Eaves to 30'+.
