Frame Systems

Either clear span frames or frames with interior columns are available.  Widths of more than 80 feet are more economical with an interior column.  Most, but not all, sidewall columns are tapered but may be ordered straight upon request. In most cases, a tapered column is more economical.  Frame Details (Adobe Acrobat file).

Frames are finished in red lead or other color primer.  Endwall frames feature a beam and column design unlike the rigid frame used on the interior of the building.  Optional rigid frames to be left open or for future expansion may be ordered for the endwalls.
