Your new metal building has been engineered to meet local codes and withstand numerous different weather conditions ranging from heavy snow to hail and high winds. As a non-combustible material, steel naturally has fire-resistant properties as well! Steel buildings are engineered to meet or exceed your local snow load to withstand the weight on the roof of the building, so you can assure your steel building will protect your valuables during the next heavy snow fall.When you purchase the recommended number of anchors, you are wind-certifying your steel building to withstand winds up to 120 miles per hour. Here at Wisconsin Carports, all buildings 32’ wide and up are manufactured with vertical roofing and siding for easy run-off. Vertical roofing and siding are engineered with additional framework as well for significant reinforcement. Some contractors may even offer standard packages that are included in your project to help the building withstand water. Wisconsin Carports use steel sheeting that has 40% more resistance from dents caused by harsh hailstorms. Lastly, steel is a naturally non-combustible material, meaning it won’t ignite or burn.
