A new Butlerib II metal roof on a large steel structure will lengthen the life of the building

A Butlerib II Roof for Longevity & Strength

A recent client of ours realized it was time to extend the life of their steel building with a Butlerib II metal roof and a few additional upgrades.

Extending the Life of a Building with a Buttlerib II Metal Roof

The largest piece of the project was re-roofing the entire 60’ x 120’ structure with a Butlerib II metal roof.  The Butlerib II is one of the strongest roof systems in the industry. It offers 1 ½” corrugation, factory-slotted holes that allow roof panels to expand and contract as needed with changes in weather, full side-lap corrugation for extra support, a UL Class 90 wind uplift rating, and more.

Our team also removed and replaced some of the building’s sidewall material and replaced the gutters with 7” box gutters and 4×5 downspouts, all to further strengthen and improve the structure.

The result is a building that went from living on borrowed time to having all the time in the world!

Feed storage building at a Red Bud grain elevator that was updated in time for harvest

Much-Needed Feed Storage Building Updates

When you think grain storage, you might think about the tall shaft or storage bins of a grain elevator. But there are other important pieces to the puzzle, including a well-constructed feed storage building.

New Roofing and Siding for a Feed Storage Building

Our team recently worked with a client in Red Bud to outfit the 40’ x 63’ storage building and attached 14’ x 56’ lean-to at their grain elevator with a brand-new steel roof and siding.

The roofing and siding are rated high for wind uplift, snow load, hail, and fire resistance, helping to protect the variety of products, trailers, pallets, and more that are stored in the building.

These improvements were completed just in time for harvest, and the durable building is sure to last our client for years to come. Read more on our blog.

No Worries With a Metal Roof

We recently had the opportunity to replace a standard shingle roof that was causing the wood underneath to rot with a 1.5” SSR standing seam metal roof. This metal roof is designed to last for over 50 years and hold up to all kinds of weather and environments.

6,000 Sq. Ft. of Roofing Steel

Our team took on a 6,000 sq. ft. roofing project and installed a 24-gauge steel roofing system onto our client’s building. This system not only features unmatched strength, but was also outfitted with specially designed snow and ice guards to protect both the building and those entering or exiting it.

Metal Roof Does What Traditional Roof Couldn’t

Earlier this year, FS Construction Services helped a client whose brand-new barn roof began leaking. Rather than stick with traditional shingles, our client sought us and the reliability of a metal roof to fix her problem. We installed a Fabral Horizon S Series roof onto her barn to create an attractive, weatherproof building.

New Roof in Time for Winter

Just in time for the winter to come, we installed a brand-new metal roof onto our client’s home, preparing him not just for the winter, but for decades to come. The Fabral Horizon S series roof is made of strong steel and features extreme weather, fire, and impact ratings.

 

Brand-New Roof Liner

During the course of 9 days last December, we installed a brand-new roof liner and batt insulation on a steel building used for a variety of agricultural applications. The Mighti-Rib fastener panels carry Class 4 impact, Class A fire, and wind-protected qualifications and also come in a variety of perforation and color options, so our client got to choose the exact look and function needed for the building.

 

Old Barn Made New with Metal Covering

This barn was starting to show its age until brand new Fabral Strongclad steel panels went up on its roof and sides.  This durable metal covering not only updates the look of the structure, but greatly improves its strength, adding fire and hail resistance, ensuring its owners will have many more years of use out of this barn.
