1. LET US STEEL YOUR BUILDING 586-468-8972 nationalheirloombuildings.com Telephone Welcome to the National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ Construction ProcessS L I D E S H O W

2. ›› Beginning the construction process with the foundation in place and the first steel members laid out. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 2OF19]

3. ›› Assemble the X-Braced bay first. Review the instruction manual for various ways to erect frames. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 3OF19 ]

4. ›› Plumb and square the X-Braced bay. Once the first bay is plumb and squared, it’s just a matter of measuring distance to put the other frames in place. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 4OF19 ]

5. ›› Run a row of purlins down both sides of the peak and another near the eave to tie the frames together. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 5OF19 ]

6. ›› Finish installing the purlins based on the purlin spacing specified by the engineered drawings. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 6OF19 ]

7. ›› Frame all exterior sidewall and endwall girts along with window and door openings. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 7OF19 ]

8. ›› Install the roof insulation and roofing. Our roof fasteners are applied through the high ribs of our roofing sheets. The special threads allow for superior performance against leaking. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 8OF19 ]

9. ›› Install all windows and entry doors. Trim them out with trim kits. It’s very easy to work with light gauge steel if you have the right tools. Ask our building consultant to include them in your kit. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 9OF19 ]

10. ›› Steel siding is extremely popular. It’s strong and requires little maintenance. AND, National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ are simple to finish with other materials to match existing structures too. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 10OF19 ]

11. ›› In a building which includes a mezzanine, the joists must be installed before the endwalls are applied. This is a very clean building system with lots of usable space. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 11OF19 ]

12. ›› Once the mezzanine floor joists are installed and the ends capped, you are ready to place the floor decking. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 12OF19 ]

13. ›› It’s back outside to finish installing the endwall sheeting. Various roof pitches require the builder to cut the sheeting angle at the gable. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 13OF 19 ]

14. ›› Safety is critical! This is not the OSHA approved method for installing tall sheeting. If you are hiring the work out, check references and for proper licensing, bonding, and insurance coverage. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 14OF19]

15. ›› Install trim pieces, outside corners, ridge-caps, and gable flashings. Extended eaves add value and are worth the expense where aesthetics are important. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 15OF19 ]

16. ›› The overhead doors are installed after the opening is framed, trimmed and pre-measured by the installer. It’s a good idea to have the installer inspect the opening just after framing. National Heirloom Buildings Of Steel™ [ 16OF19 ]
