Steel Structure Airport Building

The aviation and aerospace industries require metal buildings for many purposes, from R & D to manufacturing, from hangar parking to maintenance and repairs, to complete general aviation operations. To design and deliver these projects, demands a special set of skills and understanding of how to apply construction practices to the airport environments. Constructing aerospace and aviation buildings, be they aircraft hangars or airport facilities, present unique challenges to contractors. Their construction must be compliant with airport security and safety standards. They must take into consideration certain features such as eco-friendly green building practices, energy efficiency objectives and particular foundational conditions.
Because aviation and aerospace facilities require large clearances and have other extraordinary characteristics, the design of these metal buildings is usually customized and given considerable care. In airport construction, security is always mandated. The contractor's delivery must address what tools and equipment are allowed in one area but disallowed in others. Also, airports usually insist on continual operation regardless of ongoing construction, so the construction plan must show how all airport activities will be maintained during the process.
Erecting aircraft hangars has its own set of complexities to be considered in their design and construction. Aircraft dimensions dictate floor plan, clearspan requirements and eave height specifications. Doors are another element of consideration, with section doors, bi-fold doors and rolling doors all viable solutions. Besides these issues, there are fire protection issues, seismic considerations, as well as planning and building codes, zoning requirements and accessibility issues to manage.
