If you have been looking into building a structure or even buying a residence, you have probably heard the term "barndominium" used.  There are even Facebook pages and entire companies dedicated to designing and building these structures.  

​

We, here at Southeast Steel Solutions, are happy to work with you and your contractor to provide a pre-engineered metal building (PEMB) to suit your needs!   A PEMB can be designed, engineered, fabricated, delivered and erected in as little as 3-5 weeks! Much less than the traditional stick-built home.  There are very few cons to working with a PEMB structure for a residential structure.  All this in addition to the peace of mind of a structurally engineered building specific for your wind and snow loads. 

​

Pre-engineered metal buildings allow for a quick way to get a project in the dry very quickly.  There are a few nuances and particulars that are different from typical "stick-built" structures.  Keep in mind these are metal buildings and have columns that are used for main framing. 

​

This means there are specific house plans that need to be used in order to appropriately accommodate a metal building.  Two websites that we recommend are Metal House Plans and Buildmax.  Both of these have floor plans and designs specific to metal buildings and basic barndominium structures.  Don't see any hear that you like? We are happy to work with you and design a structure specific to your needs.
