When it comes to the decision between an Arched profile VS a Gable profile, there’s more to consider than just aesthetics.  The shape of your structure will have several effects that informed owners will want to know about before making decisions on purchasing a fabric building.  It is always best to begin with an inventory of what your project objectives are – what does your building need to do for you?  Matching those objectives to what the Apex Series offers can make your vetting process much easier.

Geometric Significance and Quality Attributes of the Apex Series

Understanding the impacts of the geometric shape of a building has on the total project outcome isn’t difficult, but needs to be explored.   Britespan, with industry-leading vision, has seamlessly integrated essential design elements to present the Apex series. This “gable-shaped” structure first provides the traditional aesthetics that many of our customers desire.  Visibly symmetrical, this traditional shape design offers profiles that match other structures on or near the property.  The benefits don’t end there – below are leading reasons why the Apex series profile buildings are selected:

The gable-shaped Apex series offers exceptional interior clearances both in the center of the structure as well as at the sidewalls where some arch profiles do not.
In regions where heavier snow or wind loads are present, the Apex series can manage higher physical climate demands while preserving maximum truss spacing than some arch profiles do.
Apex series structures can have up to 20-feet wide truss spacing – reducing foundation costs in concert with many foundation designs.
When fabric buildings have very wide spans, the Apex in many cases can provide better pricing selections than similar arch shape options.
Apex series buildings have a truss depth starting at 24” and as deep as 51” deep, and can carry additional collateral loads such as fire suppression or conveyors better than arches can in many cases.
Credentials? The Apex series comes with ISO 9001, AWS/CSA/CWB, Galvanizing Certificate of Compliance, and JIS certificate, providing proof of quality and adherence to strict global standards.

Why Choose the Apex Series?

All Britespan Buildings are engineered specifically for the site you will build it on.  The trusses receive a post-production hot dip galvanization. This gives them the ultimate armor inside and out, against the unforgiving forces of nature. Concerned about longevity?
