The Crossover, the Original Tension Fabric Structure With a Rigid Steel Structural Frame

  • Posted on February 2, 2012 at 10:21 am

MilestonesBuildingand Design advises the CROSSOVER, the original tension fabric building using structural, rigid steel beams instead of open web trusses is now in manufacturing.  A remarkable engineering idea created and developed by the owner/engineer of Accu Steel Inc., the newest era in tension fabric structures.  A design that ensures  the strongest  fabric structures available.  The CROSSOVER makes use of the confirmed framework  of a “steel” building, and all of the advantages of tension fabric structure.   High wind and snow loads  are no longer problems.   This is a proven structural steel system already established with engineering departments and local jurisdictions, which translates into stronger buildings and easier permitting.

The strength of the rigid steel, built-up beam, structural steel frame provides several engineering benefits.  One being the variable dimensions: Width, height, leg heights, inside center height and roof slope.  These dimensions are dtermined by the customer and application requirements.  Another nice benefit, not possible in fabric structures before now,  is ability to put in eaves, dormers, gutters, standard windows, standard doors, extra wide side doors, insulation, and liners.  Plus, we can engineer the fabric building for additional loads, i.e., conveyors, sprinklers, lighting fixtures, heaters, air conditioning and fans.

The CROSSOVER by Accu Steel Inc., is the original and the preferred tension fabric building of those with structural, rigid steel built-up beams in place of hollow-tube, open web truss frames traditionally used for tension fabric buildings.  Solid steel, structural steel beams do not lend themselves to corrosion that commonly originates inside the open web hollow tubing. Hot dip galvanized steel makes the Crossover’s rigid steel structural frame virtually corrosion resistant.  Plus, they are hot-dip galvanized in a lead-free facility; no lead is added to the zinc in the galvanization process.

The CROSSOVER is a phenomenal choice in fabric buildings; a multi purpose,  speedy, sturdy, affordable solution for manufacturing, warehousing, and mining facilities, the bulk storage business  and the commodity storage industries.  Industrial, commercial and agricultural businesses  alike recognize the advantages provided by fabric covered buildings, including the low cost, quick turnaround, green construction and sustainable design.

The CROSSOVER features:

Made in the USA, produced with awesome quality, world class customer service and an unequalled 20 year guaranty.   Acquire direct from the manufacture, Accu Steel Inc., through Milestones’ Exclusive Sales Executive.  Phone:  360-366-3077 or visit http://www.milestonesbd.com.

From 30′ to 300′ and wider x any length tension fabric structures are spacious, the entire inside space is useable. There are not any internal columns or supports to interfere with internal plans. utilize the maximum amount of space conceivable for any application.  The dimensions of width, height, length, leg heights, inside center height, and roof slope are chosen by the customer and application requirements.

Utilized in industrial, commercial, agricultural, government, military, state, municipal, and public works operations, these fabric structures are highly flexible.  The CROSSOVER Tension Fabric Structure will ensure any venture meets and exceeds all expectations.

The CROSSOVER is perfect for a variety of  industrial and commercial building solutions: bulk storage, port buildings, commodity storage, plane manufacturing, distribution centers, logistics and delivery buildings, automotive production,  gas and lubrication facilities, equipment washing areas, aggregates storage, railcar staging, maintenance shops}, plane hangars; helicopter hangars; car, truck, and equipment storage; marine and boat storage; compost storage, recycling operations, waste control, industrial structures, manufacturing enlargement, warehouse storage; public works buildings; salt and sand storage, water treatment plants; special  events, conference centers, concert halls, and entertainment stages; indoor sports and recreational facilities; mining buildings and oil drilling shelters; military shelters and aircraft hangars.

It’s equally appropriate for a variety of agricultural building answers: Truck, and farm vehicle storage; compost and fertilizer processing and storage, manure digesting; farm animal barns, beef barns, feedlot covers, dairy buildings, free stall barns, livestock confinement, and dry bed pack barns; animal shelters, goat buildings, alpaca shelters, and calf buildings; grain buildings, hay storage, wheat storage, and feed storage;  commercial warehouse storage.

Variable height side walls allow for the height needed to provide extraordinary clearance for ease of motion loading and handling and entry/exit.  Enjoy rapid deployment as heavy equipment can drive inside and easily maneuver.

Structural steel frames come in red oxide, prime steel, powder coat, or hot dip galvanized. Our hot dip galvanizing process is done in a lead-free facility; no lead is added to the zinc in the galvanization procedure.  In extremely corrosive applications, the Crossover’s structural rigid steel, built-up beams are coated with 300% more zinc than competitor’s buildings, which lengthens the lifetime of structural steel.

Energy environment friendly, white fabric covers provide an inviting internal environment which increases productivity.  They reduce the need for artificial lighting, reducing energy intake; in addition, the translucent and reflective characteristics of the cover provide indoor temperature stability.  Fabric buildings stay cooler in the summertime and warm winter.  These benefits supply huge energy savings.

Natural ventilation and abundant light provide a fresh clean feel and smell.  Natural light cuts down on moisture and micro organism growth providing a healthier environment.  Superior ventilation options are available.  Unobstructed views, without shadows allow excellent visibility while working within the fabric building.

Fast delivery and fast installation. When a building is required quickly, the CROSSOVER can be manufactured it in just a few weeks. It can be installed in less than half the time it takes to construct a traditional wood or steel building. The design of the Crossover provides prompt unloading from the delivery as well as efficient installation, which saves money.

It is fully code compliant to the present IBC  Building Code, including compliance to wind and snow loads, at the specific property location of the fabric covered building, providing superior structural integrity. Engineered stamped drawings accompany all buildings requiring a permit.

Along with the CROSSOVER tension fabric structures and accessories, Milestones Building and Design offers: Expert project management including permitting, foundations and/or site work, fabric structure install or installation supervision, and complete fabric structures preventive maintenance service packages.
