Column Profiles for Rigid Frame Metal Buildings
These illustrations show various column profiles for the primary framing columns used in rigid frame metal building systems. The appropriate column will depend on your building's size and its intended use.
Straight Column Profile
Vertical interior and exterior.
Taper Column Profile
Vertical exterior with a tapered interior.
Reverse Taper Column Profile
Tapered exterior with a vertical interior.
CLEAR SPAN FRAMES
Clearspan frames are frequently utilized in structures that necessitate expansive interior space without obstructions. Typical applications encompass aircraft hangars, arenas, tennis centers, soccer facilities, equestrian arenas, manufacturing plants, warehouses, office complexes, and retail establishments. The absence of interior columns additionally facilitates the accommodation of material handling equipment and crane systems
MULTI-SPAN FRAMES
Multi-span frames are frequently employed in constructing layouts that incorporate interior columns. The distance between these columns can be uniform or adjustable to fulfill specific needs. These structures facilitate expansive floor areas by minimizing the number of columns, enabling seamless movement of equipment such as forklifts. Typical applications encompass manufacturing facilities, warehouses, distribution centers, and retail outlets.

LEAN-TO FRAME
Lean-to frames are primarily employed for expanding or extending existing structures, providing additional space economically. They are commonly used to extend larger buildings with extra office or storage areas. Typically characterized by a single-slope profile without a ridge and supported by straight sidewall columns, lean-to frames require attachment to another frame for support.
