Description:
Built for Air Castle, an executive jet charter company, this 23,000 sq. ft. hangar was the first of several expansion projects at the Millville, NJ airport.
The 196' clearspan hangar was designed and supplied by Butler Heavy Structures and utilizes a reverse-frame design. A 17' deep “supertruss” spans the width of the building above the hangar doors. Seven-foot deep parallel-chord trusses are supported by the supertruss at the front of the building and by mill columns at the rear. The building slopes from front-to-back, eliminating the standard gable-roof appearance.
The building is clad with Butler’s MR-24® standing seam roof and Shadowall® panel system. A single-story shops building and single-story office with a drive-through canopy complete the complex.
