FOUNDATION - Foundations are the basis of a strong building. K Buildings are available with three types of recommended foundations:

  • PIER FOUNDATION - Consist of individual pads for each frame leg. These are typically drilled with an 18 inch auger below the frost line. Above the ground they are formed to 1 foot square. They are reinforced with re-bar. Buildings with pier foundations come standard with a 2 X 10' skirt board.
  • MONOSLAB FOUNDATION - Are poured with the floor in a single pour. The 8 inch wall portion is trenched 24 inches into the ground. This foundation is considered to be 'floating'. It can be used on smaller buildings only (generally 24 feet or 30 feet in width). A 2' X 6' inch treated base plate is standard on the monoslab building.
  • FOUNDATION WALL - Is 8 inches wide and is trenched below the frost line. Then it is formed to the desired height above the ground and reinforced with a series of re-bar. A 2' X 6' inch treated base plate is standard on buildings using a wall foundation.

ANCHOR BOLTS - 5/8" mainframe & 1/2" endwall frame anchor bolts come standard with each K Building.


STEEL MAIN & ENDWALL FRAMES - The strength of the K Building is the use of steel frames. With the combination of steel frames and steel wind bracing rods, the K Building has an advantage in resisting high wind and snow loads. With a steel frame quality and longevity is assured, while, the risk of eroding and insect infested wood posts is eliminated.


SECONDARY FRAMING

  • PURLINS - K Buildings come standard with 2' X 6' X 16' #1 yellow pine purlins. Located 2' on center, allowing the ability to walk anywhere on the roof.
  • GIRTS - K Buildings come standard with 2' X 6' X 16' #1 yellow pine girts, located 41-1/2' on center.

COVERING - 29 Gauge ASTM-A792 Galvalume steel, 95,000 PSI yield-minimum. Painted with a baked on, siliconized polyester paint, which is available in 15 elegant colors and has a limited lifetime warranty.


DOORS

  • SINGLE & DOUBLE SLIDING DOORS - Sidewall and Endwall sliding doors are constructed with lightweight steel girt framework and 29 gauge steel covering.
  • OVERHEAD DOORS - K Buildings can be customized to fit any sized overhead door. Various sized overhead doors are available. Follow-the-roof' door track option can utilize overhead room, limited by standard overhead doors.
  • Bl-FOLD DOORS - Are popular as a cost effective alternative to sliding and overhead doors on large openings. Since a bi-fold door opens on the outside of the building, interior overhead lighting will not be obstructed as with a standard overhead door
