Many Activities Under One Roof – Big Post Frame Buildings

Thinking of one of those big post frame buildings for a multi-use structure? Designers at Sapphire Construction can guide you to the most cost-effective solution for your many activities. Some clients choose to connect two or three separate buildings, but others prefer one enormous roof-sharing center. These pole barns may include lofts and second levels to accommodate storage.

Sapphire Construction involves the experts in every decision. Clients are primary experts; they know what they want to do. During the planning stage, our clients describe their specific activities, purposes, and needs. Often, they expand the size of the facilities accordingly.

Sapphire Construction builds facilities like well-oiled machines now. Every aspect, down to the nails and bolts, add worth. The foundation must be engineered correctly, the materials and fasteners must perform, the wall and roof panels must perform well. And we take the time to get it right through many careful steps such as:

• Idea phase and discussions
• Site study
• Engineer calculations for force and stress
• Architectural e-plans
• Perfecting e-plans with clients
• Improving flow and interior workspaces
• Choosing design elements and add-ons
• Improving indoor elements

Going Big with Care

Every large indoor arena and multi-purpose building must be done right. Only then will the owner be happy and we, the post frame builder, be proud. Our largest buildings really show off the amazing ways modern building techniques, technology, and engineering have advanced the post frame building industry. These huge metal buildings must perform, especially given the weather patterns in Colorado. Nature continually changes and we must factor in the wind, rain, ice, and snow loads.

Samples of Large Multi-Use Pole Buildings

A commercial operation may be more efficient if it stages the offices close to manufacturing, equestrian activities, or a car dealership and shop. The interior of a rectangular building can be partitioned, for example, to include business offices, parts and supplies, service department, auto shop, and the windowed sales floor.

An equestrian facility may include boarding stables and an indoor arena, plus an office, tack rooms, lockers, washing bay, etc. Just the same, rural airport may include offices, a service hanger, and a restaurant under one roof with several hangers closer to the runway.

After gathering the information, our designers, engineers, manufacturers, and builders coordinate with each other to produce a building with superior qualities. To come up with our engineered systems, each detail adds value. The technical specifications will drive our selection of high-quality materials and components.

From the foundation and framing – using engineered lumber – to the steel panels and selection of Uni-Rib steel, the best choices of materials add up. We only incorporate top-quality doors and windows. Important details such as the protective substrate coatings and paint systems as well as insulation and vapor barriers contribute to the excellent quality. Our team determines every fastener and connector. Over three-quarters of a century of experience guides our craftsmanship.
