Component Finishes
Galvanized finish to last a lifetime
Engineered for location
Components are engineered specifically for the building location
HiTen Buildings come with a galvanized finish. The galvanized finish comes direct from the steel mill and is an integral part of the steel. The galvanized steel won’t flake, rust, or require painting and it will last a lifetime.
HiTen’s components are engineered specifically for the building location. The main frame steel will vary from 4” to 24” in depth and 2 ½ to 5” wide, the gauge varies from 16ga to 10ga.
HiTen’s main frame is typically both bolted and screwed together using pre-drilled plates. HiTen Buildings can require some cutting/coping and drilling of braces on site.
Foundations
Engineered foundation plans are supplied
Save on concrete
Save 20-25% less concrete
HiTen Buildings bolt to the foundation (slab, piers, strip) using steel base plates and drill in anchors supplied with the building.
Anchors are installed after the concrete is complete. Engineered foundation plans are supplied with the building.
