Pre-manufactured steel military buildings provide safe and secure shelters to protect our uniformed men and women and valuable military equipment from attacks, severe weather, and other natural disasters. Clear-span, military metal buildings with no interior beams or posts create 100 percent usable interior space for troop barracks, military sheds, workshops, garages, portable shelters, educational and training structures, multi-use facilities, Quonset huts, and more.

Quick-to-install military steel buildings or army Quonset huts, like those built with Allied Steel Buildings, provide durability, strength, design flexibility, efficient construction, and portability.

Military Buildings Must Be Tough – Look No Further Than Steel

The integrity and strength of a well-maintained metal building effectively stands up to extreme loading conditions, severe weather, and attacks better than non-metal construction. Long-lasting, low-maintenance steel buildings save the military time and money on costly repairs and replacement construction.

Sheer Durability and Strength

Steel buildings stand up to fire, high winds, earthquakes, and moisture, to protect and preserve our country’s substantial military investments and personnel:

• Fire-resistant steel traps flames to prevent the spread of the potential disaster.
• Can resist wind up to 180 mph, to protect our soldiers and save on costly repairs or replacement.
• Ductile buildings will absorb earthquake energy and bend without breaking, which prevents the structure from collapsing.
• Steel does not contract and expand if exposed to moisture
• Prevents the growth of structurally destructive mold

Protect The Military Base Against Pests, Biohazards, and Weather

Military steel buildings protect the base from costly and damaging pests, dangerous biohazards, and severe weather events:

• Naturally resists damaging pests, like termites, which can be a significant expense for wood buildings
• Provides a safe and quick storage solution for environmental control of biohazardous materials

Allied Steel buildings meet the codes for most communities for the safe and efficient storage of biohazard material:

• Noncombustible or fire-rated for 2- or 4-hour fire resistance meeting minimum
• Snow load resistance (typically 40 pounds per square foot)
• Wind speed resistance (typically 177 km per hour or 110 miles per hour)
• Resistance to seismic force
• Allied offers insulated panels for temperature-sensitive chemicals and ventilation systems to reduce the concentration of hazardous vapors and dust

Weather-Resistance

• Lightning-Resistance: If lightning strikes a properly grounded steel military building, the lightning will flow through the framing, passing safely into the ground.
• Snow Loads: Experts at Allied Steel can help you design code-compliant steel military buildings to withstand heavy snow of 120 lbs per ft2 , cold temperatures and thick ice, examining the walls, roofs, gables, material quality, and main ridgelines.

Metal Buildings Provide Incredible Flexibility for
the Military

The flexibility of pre-engineered steel buildings makes them ideal for endless types of military structures, including hangers, barracks, shelters, garages, workshops, firehouses, and storage buildings. The Allied Steel Building clear span design provides unobstructed interior space while the modular construction allows for seamless and easy expansion and renovation.

Hangars

Protecting our military’s aircraft requires durable, spacious, and secure hangers. In addition, the hanger should have low-maintenance and energy-efficient features to control long-term costs.

Allied Steel Buildings prefab aircraft hangars provide the military with the perfect solution for building column-free structures, with wide floor space, high ceilings, and eaves, to accommodate the largest military airplanes. In addition, to meet exact specifications, Allied Buildings has an in-house engineering team that can factor fire protection, energy efficiency, ventilation, crane systems, door systems, and even office space into the design.

Barracks and Shelters

Long-lasting steel buildings create lightweight, versatile barracks and shelters that can withstand severe winds and earthquakes. In addition, easy to transport buildings assemble quickly without the need for large teams of skilled laborers. The half-dome style of building provides significant durability and strength at an affordable price compared to other steel building types. A military building made by Allied Steel Building can last for decades with the correct setup and maintenance.

Garages, Workshops, and Fire Houses

Two-story steel buildings offer an economical way to create garages tall enough to store large military vehicles and fire trucks. It can also provide extensive-vertical storage space. The inherent strength of steel permits clear span constitution for wide-open spaces and door openings required for the massive military vehicles, tanks, and trucks.

Storage

Allied Steel building warehouses provide military bases with a cost-effective, safe, durable, eco-friendly storage solution:

• Steel prefab warehouses save the military money with quick construction, low material costs, minimal maintenance, durability, and lower energy bills.
• Durable Allied Steel warehouses provide several vital safety benefits to protect those occupying the building and the military’s expensive inventory: fire and disaster resistance.
• Energy-efficient, non-toxic steel buildings use less energy, do not require harmful chemicals to protect against rot, and use mostly recycled content. Precision-cut Allied PEB steel building components also minimize waste.

Metal Buildings Offer Efficiency in Construction and Even Portability

Allied Steel Building Kits provide the military with all the design flexibility to construct any type and size building, whether temporary or permanent, from Quesnel Huts to training centers or massive shipyard facilities. Steel building design also includes an endless variety of accessories, colors, and panels depending on the end-use of the structure. Steel buildings will allow for easy expansion as the military’s needs change. In addition, servicemen and women can quickly relocate steel structures with less than 10,000 ft2.

Allied Steel Buildings for Military Use is the Superior Option

The design flexibility of Allied Steel Building offers the military a superior option for quickly building affordable, low-maintenance hangars, barracks, shelters, firehouses, warehouses, workshops, garages, and more. In addition, our clear span construction provides safe and secure, wide open spaces required to store the military’s large vehicles and equipment, protecting soldiers and costly inventory from natural disasters and attacks. Allied Steel Buildings create long-lasting and energy-efficient military steel buildings that can be easily transported from location to location.
