Description:
The structural steel and cladding systems for this 74,000 sq. ft. expansion to Bombardier’s business aircraft service and maintenance center was designed and supplied by Butler Heavy Structures.
A series of jack trusses ranging in depth from 11'-6" to 15'-0" span widths up to 242' to provide a virtually column free interior space. Flat-bottom in-fill trusses and mill section columns complete the primary structural package.
A series of 30' tall sliding hangar doors expand the width of the building on the front and back walls. The by-pass door systems accommodate a variety of “open” conditions up to 120' clear.
The exterior is clad with Butler’s MR-24® standing seam roof system, and Shadowall® panel system. A 10' deep fascia system creates a parapet around the building perimeter.
