Clear Span Buildings

What is a Clear Span Building and What Kind of Roof Does It Require?

Our clear span buildings at Global Carport are so popular because of their versatile design. By designing them without interior columns or other obstructions, we create a wide-open space that’s simple to manufacture and easy to install. The durable steel frame structure is supported by a secure truss system, and the open design also allows for a higher ceiling, creating even more space to use for whatever you need.

Some of the most common applications for our clear span buildings are in the agricultural industry as metal barns or farm buildings, but they also make excellent aircraft hangars or warehouses. With no interior columns for support, the roof of a clear span building does the heavy lifting in terms of support and stability. This design is also more vulnerable to the accumulation of snow or debris if a flat roof is installed. That’s why we only use the superior vertical roof design with our clear span buildings. It has panels which are vertically-aligned to provide excellent protection against extreme weather conditions and additional framing components to enhance durability.
