ECONOSPAN STRUCTURES is a western Canada pre-engineered steel building manufacturer. Any size or style of building can be designed or custom manufactured. Most common sizes from 30' to 100' are stocked so delivery can usually be done 2-3 weeks after approval of the drawings. This is usually, enough time for your foundation to be installed; thus, keeping your project on track, without slowdown. Our head office is located in Chase, British Columbia.

ECONOSPAN STRUCTURES offers three different types of building packages.  All kits are sold with a complete set of building drawings , engineer stamped to suit your building site. These buildings can be added on to in every direction so as to offer the capability of keeping up with the future growth of your business,  These buildings can be designed to take a 3 ton overhead crane system, for very little extra cost.

Type 1
  Steel-wood building combines the strength of steel for the columns and trusses with the cost efficiency of wood for the roof purlins and wall girts to create a sturdy, appealing building for all applications.  This package can be purchased as a complete turn-key or as a partial kit for the do-it-yourselfer.

The kit consists of:

bulletStructural steel package
bulletWood package
bulletCladding package
bulletInsulation package
bulletInterior liner package
bulletDoor and window package

   This building package is simple to put together using the "where there is a hole, put a bolt theory" which makes a very attractive package for do-it-yourselfers to install using their own resources.  The wood wall girts are normally at 2' centers horizontally, so the cladding goes on without strapping.  The wood roof purlins are also running horizontally so the roof deck is applied without strapping.  Fiberglass batt insulation is the typical method of insulating this building.  The R value can be equal to the wood member used for the girt or purlin.  The bay spacing is usually 16' or 20' based on the most cost effective span which depends on the snow load in your area.

  Type 2

    Steel-steel building: this is a conventional pre-engineered building style which uses steel wall girts and steel roof purlins.

We use a truss for the load bearing members at 20' or 25' bay spacing and our columns are straight wall and not tapered.  This adds to the  usable area of your building. This building can be installed on piles or on a standard foundation.

Type 3

   E.P.S. panel building: this building is a steel frame with a styrofoam shell.  The panels are 4" wide by the height of the building.  The panels come in 2" to 10" thick and are R-4 per inch.  The panels are finished with pre-finished metal on both sides, making a very attractive, well-insulated building. This building is easy to put together, making it suitable for self-installation.

   The ECONOSPAN STRUCTURE system is versatile enough to allow the handy man to install himself or a field erection crew can be provided.  Either way, you will have the best field support in the industry!
