Steel Agricultural Building in Canby, Minnesota

Metal Building Outlet supplied this steel building in Canby, Minnesota in January, 2014. This building is used as an agricultural building to store large equipment and was purchased to replace a building which was lost in a fire. This metal agricultural equipment storage building is about 150 miles from both Watertown and Minneapolis.

This agricultural building is 80’x120’x20’ and features three entrances, two large overhead doors (for access by large equipment). These doors are 25’x18’ and 20’x18’. Additionally, there is a 3’x7’ walk door.

In order to accommodate the climate of Yellow Medicine County in southwest Minnesota, this building is rated for wind speeds of 90 MPH and has a high snow load rating of 50 PSF. Keeping the climate in mind the owner added high efficiency R-19 single layer of 6” insulation on the walls and under the galvalume roof (2:12 pitch).

Metal Shop Building in Clearbrook, Minnesota

Metal Building Outlet supplied this pre-engineered metal building for a buyer in Clearbrook, Minnesota, in late January, 2015.

Now functioning as a shop, the durable, low-maintenance metal building is designed with supreme energy efficiency in mind. Crafted from rugged, hardwearing steel components, the building stands 50’x100’x16’ and is covered overhead and protected by a corrosion-resistant Galvalume metal roof with a 4:12 roof pitch. Inside it are (3) framed openings, which include (2) 24’x17’ openings and (1) that houses a 3070 walk door for user access.

Installed in the roof of the building is high-performance, high R-value R-35 building insulation, and installed within the walls is R-19 insulation. In addition to keeping interior temperatures consistent despite Minnesota’s long, sometimes bitterly cold winters, the insulation considerably reduces energy costs while enhancing noise control at the same time. In addition to the insulation package, this building is designed for maximum durability with respect to the typical climate of the area. As such, it boasts a wind speed of 115 mph and a high snow load of 60 lbs. In addition to this metal shop building, the customer purchased components for (2) additional 20’x100’ lean-to structures.
