Easi-Span Clear Span Concrete Buildings Benefits
Durable
- Impact resistant: two-way prestressing or post-tensioning creates a monolithic roof diaphragm and greatly increases “punch shear” capacity.
- Weather-tight: see below
- Maintenance free: will not rust, warp, corrode, rot or burn and retains finish without maintenance.
- Heavy-duty construction: galvanized insulated doors, deluxe door hardware and aluminum threshold.
Versatile
- Expandable length: the only precast building in the industry with the ability to be lengthened as needs change and still maintain the original monolithic structural roof.
- Ultra-large sizes: modular expandable precast concrete buildings are available with 20’, 24’, 30’ and 40’ clear spans with lengths up to 200’ in 10’ increments.
- Exterior-finish choices: many options offered to blend with surrounding architecture.
Secure
- Vandal resistant: steel-reinforced precast concrete construction, tamper-proof hinges, deadbolt locks and steel doors.
- Bullet resistant: UL 752 —Level 4 bullet resistant.
- Fire resistant: standard fire rating of 1.5 hours with additional protection available.
- Earthquake resistant: rated Seismic Zone 4.
- Hurricane resistant: withstands up to 150 mph wind loads standard.
- Blast resistant.
Water-Tight Features
- Turn-Down Roof: Prefabricated turn-down roof caps the walls with an architectural ribbed edge. This design protects the roof joint from direct exposure to driving rain and provides a drip edge which prevents moisture penetration.
- Above-Door Rain Guard: Drip edge protection.
- Galvanized Door & Frame: Specially reinforced for high quality with mechanical hold-open arm.
- Raised Aluminum Threshold: Extruded aluminum threshold with integral neoprene seal provides unsurpassed moisture, dust and pest resistance.
- Step-Down Floor: Perimeter of floor is recessed so that the wall joint is below top of floor.
- Expandable: Additional sections can be attached to existing structure.
Practical
- Gets your site operational fast: quick installation and simple site preparation. Buildings can be site-assembled using precast floor sections or placed on a pre-poured concrete slab.
- Reduces maintenance expenses: durable and vandal resistant with lifetime finishes.
- Saves money: costs much less than comparable built- in-place construction.
- Relocatable: can be disassembled and relocated when needs change.
- Pre-engineered: sealed calculations and drawings.
