Excalibur Steel Structures offers virtually any type of structural design required. Depending upon your building square footage, local codes and wind-rain-seismic requirements, we can fill your needs.
Standard metal building bay lengths are 20’ and 25’ between main steel frames (optional bay lengths up to 40’ available). A variety of endwall designs are available depending upon specific steel building demands. Post and beam endwalls are standard. Optional “rigid steel frame” endwall designs are also available when there may be a need to add to the metal building in the future or perhaps a need for a total opening such as an aircraft hangar door. One of many standard steel building features we offer include overlapping purlins over the main roof beams. As opposed to flush bolting methods, this technique insures greater strength and structural support for your commercial steel building.
We make it easy to purchase a quality pre-engineered steel building. Our building specialists can assist in taking your initial concept and developing the structural design, and accessories that best accommodate your metal building needs. In addition to the materials, you receive a complete set of prints for your commercial steel building, stamped by an engineer licensed in your state.

Metal Building Components
|
|
Panels
PBR roof and wall panels (26 gauge high tensile steel) are standard in our metal building kits. PBR panels feature extra overlap for increased strength and water resistance. Other prefab metal buildings use "R" panels with shorter overlap and less metal to metal contact. See our steel building options page for panel color choices.

Ridge Caps
Our die formed ridge caps conform to all standard panel configurations and provide a much tighter seal at the roof seam of your metal building. This contributes to more metal to metal contact for a tighter seal and better pest control.

Weather-Proofing
at Base, Eave, and Roof
Another of our standard steel building features includes all materials necessary to seal your steel building from the elements using specially designed foam rubber "closure strips" at all eaves, base and roof.

Formed Base Trim
The base trim, employed at the bottom of the wall panels, features a colored steel edge that the wall panel rests on resulting in two major benefits. This eliminates the need for a 1 1/2” notch in the concrete around the perimeter of the slab. Thus, your panel will not rest on the concrete which may later cause rusting. It also will typically save an average of 4 yards of concrete on a 5,000 sq. ft. building...an average $300 savings.
