Can a Steel Building Withstand a Tornado?

CAN A STEEL BUILDING WITHSTAND A TORNADO?

Steel-Building_Tornado-900x444

DURABLE AND DEPENDABLE

Severe storms that resulted in tornadoes hit parts of the Southeast April 2020 in the early morning hours of Easter Sunday. The storms caused damage to affected areas, leaving at least eight residents dead and others injured, according to WSB-TV Atlanta. This natural disaster is another unfortunate reminder that Mother Nature is so mighty and powerful. We can’t stop these events from happening, but we can plan for them by equipping ourselves with structures designed to withstand these forces. If you are a steel building owner or are in the market for one, then you may be wondering how these structures stand against tornado force winds. Let’s take a look into whether a steel building can withstand a tornado.

Structural Benefits of Steel Buildings

Many business owners choose steel buildings because they are affordable and can be assembled quickly, making for a fast and low-cost turnaround. While many benefits can be found upfront, steel buildings are great investments because they offer long-term benefits as well—in fact, that’s where they thrive. As low-maintenance structures, steel buildings are durable and offer great protection for your assets for years to come.

The strength of steel is a great benefit for your facility, especially if located in an area that commonly gets high-force natural disasters such as tornadoes and hurricanes. Steel buildings can withstand forces up to 170 mph. Tornadoes, however, cause damage in more ways than just wind—moisture, flying debris, and fires caused by tornadoes may also result in damage. Steel buildings are great for keeping your equipment dry, minimizing mold and mildew, while also being fire-resistant structures. Natural elements are out of our control, but the dependability and durability of steel buildings will help business owners to minimize damage where possible.

Of Course, Safety is the No. 1 Priority

Steel buildings are great for protecting equipment and workplaces, but they also will protect your top assets: your employees. As long as your employees are practicing great workplace tornado safety, steel buildings will do their part in protecting personnel from the forces of nature. We need to take proper precautions when natural disasters come our way, so please review the tornado preparedness and response guidelines as outlined by OSHA.

    What Would an Arco Steel Building for Amazon Look Like?

    WHAT WOULD AN ARCO STEEL BUILDING FOR AMAZON LOOK LIKE?

    warehouse-900x444

    WOULD IT BE A 100 X 300 STEEL BUILDING?

    Online shopping is becoming bigger and more prevalent every year. Per CNBC, online shipping sales for the first time recently have exceeded storefront sales. With online retailers dominating the market, this may not come as a surprise to anyone. That said, corporations such as Amazon need robust warehouses and fulfillment centers, sometimes as large as 1 million square feet. These fulfillment centers have round-the-clock operations and need to accommodate the heavy workload of a huge online retailer like Amazon. That got us thinking, what would an Amazon fulfillment center look like if Arco supplied the steel structure?

    Envisioning an Amazon Fulfillment Center from Arco

    Size: It’s More Than a 100 x 300 Steel Building

    Arco Building Systems is known for its durable and reliable 100 x 300 steel buildings, equipping businesses like yours with the perfect facility for its operations. If Amazon were to utilize one of our long-lasting buildings, we would have to supply a building that has square footage in the hundreds of thousands to fulfill their needs.
    10000-Square-Foot-Building-Warehouse-300x200
    Through its several types of fulfillment centers, Amazon’s warehouses range between 400,000 to 1 million square feet, many centers being about 800,000 square feet. Per Amazon, the retail giant has 110 fulfillment centers in the U.S., surpassing over 150 million square feet worldwide—that’s over 5 square miles total!
    With 250,000 fulfillment center associates nationwide, each U.S.-based Amazon warehouse holds on average more than 2,000 associates—that’s 250,000 U.S. associates helping to deliver your package.

    Equipment: It’s More Than Forklifts and Conveyor Belts

    As a leader in operations and technology, Amazon functions a little differently than your average warehouse. If you’ve ever wondered how Amazon achieves its quick delivery, you might not have considered that some of their “associates” are perfectly designed and programed for efficiency. Worldwide, 26 of Amazon’s 175 fulfillment centers utilize robot help—working alongside human associates.
    100-x-300-steel-building_Amazon-fulfillment-center-equipment-300x240
    Arco’s 100 x 300 steel buildings offer customizable layouts. If an operation like Amazon were to use one of our structures, they would be able to optimize the layout to accommodate innovative practices such as incorporating robots. Whatever your warehouse needs are, we can supply the building. If you want to have your own robot maid like Rosie from The Jetsons, we’re not here to question that—we’re just here to give you a building perfect for your needs.

        Steel Buildings Give Space and Protection for Your Municipal Assets

        STEEL BUILDINGS GIVE SPACE AND PROTECTION FOR YOUR MUNICIPAL ASSETS

        10000-Sq-Ft-Steel-Building_Municipal-900x444

        EXPLORING THE BENEFITS OF STEEL BUILDINGS FOR PARK & REC PURPOSES

        So many people take part in helping our communities run smoothly. We have to acknowledge the hard work of those in the municipal field for what they do on a day in and day out basis. At Arco Building Systems, we have a passion for equipping business owners with the perfect building that fits their daily operations; we want to do the same to fulfill your municipal needs. A 10,000 sq ft steel building will help benefit your operations, especially in the way of providing space and protection for your assets.

        5 Ways Steel Buildings are Ideal for Municipal Equipment Storage

        Durability

        Whether used for storage, as a maintenance bay, or anything in between, steel buildings offer incredible durability. Oftentimes used as warehouses, storage facilities, and more, steel buildings work as hard as you do and will stand the test of time against the bumps and bruises of just another workday.

        Secure

        We take for granted the equipment that helps out municipal facilities run smoothly on a daily basis. In any storage area of maintenance bay, among your top priorities for that space should be stability and security. Steel buildings are sturdy structures that are weather-resistant and will keep your equipment as safe and protected as possible. Also, since steel is a noncombustible material—unlike timber—steel buildings are fire-resistant and offer the best protection against the elements for your heavy machinery and other equipment.
        10000-Sq-Ft-Steel-Building_-266x300

        Low-Maintenance

        Naturally, due to the material and design of the structure, steel buildings are low-maintenance relative to buildings of alternative materials. This is beneficial because you can allocate the time and resources, which would have otherwise been spent on building maintenance, on more productive ventures that will help maximize and improve your municipal functions.

        Ease of Expansion

        With clear span, obstruction-free layouts, steel buildings offer the indoor space you’ll for any function. Additionally, 10,000 sq ft steel buildings can be easily expanded upon, seamlessly adding to your square footage. This makes steel buildings among the best long-term solutions, offering flexibility for when the future calls for expansion.
        10000-Sq-Ft-Steel-Building_Expansion-300x200

        Functionality in All Climates

        Through design and assembly, steel buildings perform well in a range of inclement conditions. With roofs that manage snow retention and insulation that can regulate a temperature-controlled environment, steel buildings are preferred solutions for operations and organizations that have the regular or occasional hurdle of inclement weather.

            What is the Cheapest Way to Insulate a Metal Building for Food Distribution?

            WHAT IS THE CHEAPEST WAY TO INSULATE A METAL BUILDING FOR FOOD DISTRIBUTION?

            matal-building_food-distribution-900x444

            METAL BUILDING INSULATION FOR FOOD DISTRIBUTION CENTERS

            The food distribution industry earns an annual profit of nearly $300 billion, according to Refrigerated & Frozen Foods. It’s one of the largest industries in the world, a line of work that is innovative and ever-growing. Much like the hard work of drivers across the globe push this business, metal buildings are critical to food distributors. That being said, the true unsung heroes of this line of work is the insulation of distribution centers. Keeping food efficiently and properly refrigerated is key—so which insulation is best for a food distribution center?

            Insulation with Cost in Mind

            The Importance of Insulation

            If you’re a homeowner, then you probably have noticed small drafts near your doors and windows. Those drafts can be costly in a temperature-controlled room, compromising the energy efficiency. A thoroughly and properly insulated room will effectively maintain refrigeration while maximizing your building’s energy efficiency. This not only protects products that require refrigeration but also will help minimize energy costs as much as possible.
            metal-building_refrigeration-300x200

            Optimizing Your Refrigeration

            Roughly speaking, a 10×10” commercial walk-in refrigerator costs about $400 in energy per month to run. That cost would increase if the refrigerator were not properly insulated. With this thought in mind, it is heavily advised that you appropriately equip your building with insulation as needed upon installation. Insulation that is under-qualified for your metal building will be costly throughout your years of operation. With poor thermal performance, your building will require your cooling system to work harder and more often, which will use more energy, require more maintenance, and need replacement sooner than a system that works optimally hand-in-hand with insulation.

            The cheapest way to insulate a metal building is to do it right the first time, ultimately saving on otherwise troubling upkeep.

            What Insulation is Advised for Food Distribution Centers?

            Polyurethane insulation is the industry standard for commercial food distribution centers. This material is known for its efficient thermal properties and benefits such as high resistance to moisture absorption. It is a lightweight material that is ideal for energy efficiency, helping your metal building to retain its low temperature as required by your operations.

            Our Specialists Are Here for You

            Arco Building Systems opened to help business owners like you. Our goal is to equip you with the best product possible with your operations in mind.

                PAIRING YOUR STEEL BUILDING WITH GREAT DESIGN

                Steel buildings are incredible structures at their bones. Offering functionality, flexibility, and long-term solutions, steel buildings check all the boxes—except for appearance (or one might think). At their core, steel buildings are not the most attractive structures, but they can EASILY be made beautiful. Steel buildings can be equipped with exteriors and interiors that are appealing to clients, customers and visitors, and those aesthetics are made possible with coverings, trim and great design. Let’s take a look at how 100 x 80 steel buildings can be made attractive for customers and ideal for your daily operations.

                Adding Visual Appeal to Your Steel Building

                Covering

                When investing in a steel frame, you will have to decide what kind of paneling to equip it with. Possibilities include PBR panel or the optional architectural A panel. PBR panel is standard for steel buildings, being used for commercial, agricultural and industrial structures. Coverings are utilized as wall panels or roof panels. Other alternatives, such as brick, can be used as wall panels; this is great for getting the benefits of steel frames while enjoying the attractive look of brick. Designers can use this to their advantage, mixing and matching different panel materials to make the most of the building’s structural integrity and creative visual appeal.
                100-x-80-steel-building_isolated-300x200

                Trim

                Trim for steel buildings is used wherever two ends meet, such as the corner of a building or the peak of a ridged roof. Trim on the roof of a building are designed to maintain airflow, prevent corrosion, add visual appeal and help seal the building. Trim can also be utilized on the sides, gutters and downspouts to regulate moisture on the roof while also acting as an attractive accessory.

                trim-300x225

                Exterior Design

                Steel buildings can be accessorized to have very appealing facades that are attractive to clients, customers, and visitors. Facades and mansards are available for either the sidewalls or endwalls of 100 x 80 steel buildings, available with and without soffit panels. Depending on what your signage needs are, the height of these can vary. To complement the exterior, canopies can be added to steel buildings, adding character and a pop of color. Eave overhangs can be functional, adding covering to a porch storage area where vehicles or equipment might be stored.

                  What is a Clear Span Building and Why is It Perfect for My Business?

                  5 COMMON MISTAKES TO AVOID WHEN CHOOSING A 100 X 60 STEEL BUILDING

                  100-x-60-Steel-Building-900x444 (1)

                  HOW TO PLAN FOR A STEEL BUILDING

                  Investing in a steel building is one of the best moves a business can make—especially considering the long-term benefits of a steel structure. However, just like with any other investment, you have to be diligent and detailed when planning for a new steel building. It’s easy to breeze by the small details with any project, but there are no “small details” when planning a new 100 x 60 steel building. To make sure you don’t make any easily avoidable mistakes during the planning process, count on these tips from Arco Building Systems.

                  Be Cautious of These 5 Mistakes

                  1. Not Carefully Considering the Plot of Land

                  Even if you had a phenomenal piece of real estate, you still need to mindfully plan where your new structure will be.
                  Consider factors such as:
                  • Expansion
                  • Foundation
                  • Ease of Access
                  Since steel buildings can be easily expanded upon, you will want to assemble your structure in a position that could allow for expansion if needed in the future. Build on a plot of land that is conducive to a solid foundation, and also make sure that the location of your building has convenient and practical access for all its functions.
                  100-x-60-Steel-Building_Plans-300x200

                  2. Not Obtaining Proper Permits

                  The permit and zoning process is among the most important when planning for a new steel building. Not only is it illegal to skip this step, but going through this will help you to plan for the safest structure possible by ensuring all regulations are accounted for.

                  3. Forgetting the Essentials

                  The team at Arco is passionate about equipping business owners with steel buildings because they are the best all-around option for any business function. That being said, you will need to invest in some other aspects such as HVAC, insulation and vapor barriers.
                  We can talk all day about the benefits of steel as a building material, but the one downside thankfully can be easily fixed; condensation and moisture can build up on steel walls depending on the temperature and climate of your area, which is where Vapor barriers come in. vapor barriers prevent condensation from accumulating on a steel building’s walls, which almost always makes them a necessity in any steel building investment.
                  Factor in all these costs beforehand.

                  4. Not Considering the Building’s Function

                  Steel buildings are incredibly versatile structures that can accommodate many functions, but keep your company’s operations in mind when designing the layout of the 100 x 60 building. Make sure it’s practical; in other words, don’t make yourself work harder—make your building work for you with a well-thought-out layout.

                  5. Choosing the Wrong Company

                  Who you work with will make all the difference. Start by finding an experienced steel building distributor, one that has passion for the job and decades of experience to back it up. A great distributor will be able to connect you with great people to carry out other parts of the job, such as the assembly process itself.

                    ADDED SPACE TO PRESERVE THE PAST

                    Museums are great contributions to our communities—whether preserving the past, showcasing art or celebrating mankind. As a resource with an objective of conservation, museums need to be housed in buildings capable of protecting its contents just as a curator would. Used in a number of different industries, steel buildings have been proven to be beneficial for business owners, offering valuable features such as durability. Ready to learn more? Let’s take a look at how a 100 x 100 steel building could be the perfect option for your museum’s expansion.

                    An Expansion That Protects

                    Steel buildings are used in myriad industries and are exceptionally beneficial because of their durability, visual appeal, 100 x 100 space offerings and budget-friendly qualities. In the case of a museum, these traits of steel buildings are incredibly fitting for your daily operations.

                    Durability and Climate Control

                    As a museum, one of your main functions is to preserve and protect artifacts. In order to conserve these items, a durable building is necessary. Steel buildings offer the protection museums need. Being weather-resistant, steel buildings are great structures for protecting valuable items. Through insulation, steel buildings are temperature-controlled structures, helping keep the items in your museum at an optimal temperature for preservation.

                    Elegance

                    While the first word that comes to mind when thinking of steel buildings might not be “elegance,” we assure you that steel buildings can be modified to fit your aesthetic vision. Offering durability and functionality first, steel buildings can be easily conformed to impress your museum’s visitors. With inviting facades and appealing interiors, steel buildings can be beautified, making them a great option for anyone in any industry, including museums.

                    Extra Space

                    One of the many perks of steel buildings is that they house a large unobstructed area. With a columnless roof structure, your 100 x 100 steel building can be used without obstructions. This large area can be used to customize a layout for an exhibit, or it can be used as a large storage space. Whether you need an entertainment hall, additional office spaces or an expansion on your current facilities, a 100 x 100 steel building is an ideal option for your museum’s expansion.

                    Budget-Friendly

                    Steel is a very economical building material, especially considering a few factors. Steel structures are quickly assembled, meaning labor costs can be minimized. Additionally, steel is a low-maintenance material, which allows property owners to save on the ongoing upkeep of the structure.
