01 — Why Build With Steel

Built Tougher Than Traditional Construction. Priced to Make the Numbers Work.

Commercial projects demand structures that hold up under heavy use, meet local code requirements, and don't blow the budget before the doors open. Alpha delivers all three.

A1

Durability

Commercial-grade galvanized steel framing engineered for high-load environments. Stands up to wind, weather, and decades of daily use without the maintenance overhead of wood or masonry.

A2

Customization

Clear-span interiors, multiple roof styles, custom door and window configurations, and a full range of colors and finishes. Sized to your footprint — not the other way around.

A3

Affordability & Speed

Significantly lower cost per square foot than traditional commercial construction, with faster lead times. Get your facility operational sooner without sacrificing structural integrity.

02 — Sizes & Pricing

04 — Engineering & Code

Engineered to Outlast Local Code

Every Alpha building is engineered to meet or exceed the wind and snow loads your county requires — and built from steel specced for the long haul, not the lowest bid.

140 MPH
Wind Rating (Standard)
35 PSF
Snow Load (Standard)
20-Year
Framing Warranty

California builds rated to 120 mph / 20 psf. Wherever your local code sits, we meet or exceed it.

Clear-Span Width
Up to 70 ft wide with no interior columns, and as long as you need. Wider footprints are possible with interior support beams.
Support Beams
On buildings 12–24 ft wide, outer-wall beams sit every 5 ft. On 25–70 ft widths, every 4 ft — or go full clear-span. A heavier-gauge truss adds width without center columns or compromising structural integrity.
Framing
14-gauge double-coated galvanized steel. Wider designs step up to 12-gauge trusses where the engineering calls for it. Weight-bearing framing is guaranteed against rust for 20 years.
Truss System
Double-leg builds use Z-shaped or ladder trusses depending on size and state requirements. Any building wider than 40 ft uses a ladder-style truss.
Insulation
Double-bubble and fiberglass R-8 insulation available for temperature control and reduced condensation.
Minimum Width
Buildings start at 12 ft wide. Anything taller than 14 ft uses double-tube or double-leg framing with welded leg-and-truss components.
05 — How It Works

What to Expect, From Quote to Install

No surprises and no runaround. Here's exactly how an Alpha build comes together — and what we'll need from you to keep it moving.

01

Tell Us What You Need

Share your use case, rough dimensions, and site location. Not sure on the size? We work with property owners every day to land the right footprint for the budget.

02

Get Your 3D Model

Before any steel is cut, you'll receive a 3D model of your building so you can see exactly how the interior and exterior will look. Nothing gets built until the design matches your vision.

03

Prep Your Site

You'll need engineer-approved plans and a level concrete foundation in place before we schedule installation. Good plans up front are what prevent expensive structural issues down the road — we'll tell you straight what's required.

04

We Deliver & Install

Our crew delivers and installs. We don't work directly with local inspection offices, but we provide all the documentation you need to get your permit approved on the first submission.

Simple. Transparent. Stress-free.

"From design to finish was 3/4 weeks! Sales was very helpful and the installation crew went above and beyond in some zero degree weather and accumulating snow fall! I got a 30×50×14″ built in 16/18 hours on my ready site! I put it to use the very first day!"
