Metal Building Designs

At LaClef Construction, our slogan, “Not your Grandpa’s pole barn" means exactly that. We don’t build our metal buildings with solid poles, flat roof purlins, or the archaic double header system. These aforementioned practices have gone by the way-side in the post-frame industry because of their structural inefficiencies.

Our interlocking truss or column design is the industry standard. Our premium laminated columns cost a little more but it’s a small expense for the structural benefit. Laminated columns avoid weak spots and have better treatment penetration. This design also keeps your roof loads bearing directly onto the footings.

Like premium packages, we use treated uplift blocks that are designed to keep the building from lifting out of the ground during strong winds. We can also attach directly to the concrete with brackets if you prefer. Contact us to learn more about our warranties.

We always go above and beyond jurisdictional minimums to ensure you the most structurally sound building investment possible. We always pull permits and comply with local codes and inspections.
