The arched hangar is a reliable structure built on the basis of a metal frame covered with sheet metal. Most of the external coatings of arched hangars are protected by galvanization, which significantly slows down the development of corrosion processes and prolongs the life of the building.
Design Features
The arch-type hangar is distinguished by its geometrically adjusted arched shape. That is why structures of this type have greater stability, size, and capacity compared to other types of similar buildings.
The basis of the arched hangar is a solid metal frame. Each of the arches is separately fixed on the foundation. Therefore, the length of such hangars is limited only by the available space, the capabilities and needs of the owner. Thanks to the installation of a cover on the racks, a significant increase in the height of the hangar is possible.
The load-bearing structural elements of the arched hangars are fastened with purlins made of a specialized metal profile. As an alternative, the use of wooden impregnatedantiseptic profiles.
Construction based on arch technology with a galvanized roof coating provides an impressive service life of the arched hangar, which reaches about 50 years or more.
Mobility
Despite the above advantages, the arched hangar has one obvious drawback. We are talking here about the extremely limited mobility of such a structure. In fact, the construction of an arched hangar is the installation of a capital structure, which is difficult to move from place to place. Therefore, if it is necessary to liberate the territory, it is better to limit ourselves to the design of a mobile collapsible frame without fixing the arches to the foundation.
Reliability level
Reliability indicators are the main requirement for most hangar owners. Arched structures, due to their exceptional design features, have an impressive margin of safety.
In the case of arched hangars, it is possible to erect a structure that will meet any load. In other words, giving preference to high-quality arched hangars, you don’t have to worry about the likelihood of a structure collapsing under the weight of precipitation or strong gusts of wind.
Ease of erection
As they say, everything ingenious is simple. The same applies to the construction of arched hangars. Any experienced construction team is capable of understanding the features of assembling a metal frame for an arched hangar. At the same time, there is no need to search for and use expensive specialized equipment. In general, the construction of such a structure can be compared with the assembly of a designer on a large scale.
Internal volume
One of the main advantages of the buildings under consideration is the presence of an effective geometric shape. Most of the arch type hangars are a hexagonal structure covered with a semicircular roof. This feature contributes to the most productive filling of the internal space of the structure, if necessary, warehousing and storage of products.
Costs and construction time
Technologies of arched construction make it possible to build an arched hangar, the price of which can be truly democratic due to the absence of the need for significant personnel, material and technical costs. The construction of an arched hangar with an area of about 1000 m22 will take no more than 3 weeks. And this is not surprising, because the basis of the structure is a prefabricated frame and galvanized rolled steel. Thus, the construction of a full-scale functional facility takes only a few positions of materials.
Arched pre-fabricated hangars are often built for the purpose of doing business. Given the short installation time of the structures of such structures, the payback of the budget spent on construction will come earlier, and the money spent will be returned faster.
Insulation
Modern arched prefabricated hangarsthey are easily insulated with any kind of heat-insulating materials, be it polystyrene, polyurethane foam, polystyrene foam or mineral wool. At the same time, arched structures, where capital supporting structures are not provided, are insulated with materials that are applied directly to the inner surface of the roof by spraying.
