COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS

Introduction of Curved Trusses

Dairy Tech was one of the first dairy construction companies to use Duragal™ RHS Steel (a lightweight, medium tensile rectangular hollow section) for portal frames (studs and rafters) to span greater distances at less cost.

Frames

By using Duragal™ RHS Steel in commercial buildings, Dairy Tech can efficiently construct rolled, clear span trusses up to 32 metres that reduce the cost of construction when compared to UB section structures.

Walls

Outside walls between the portals can be of colour-steel cladding or pre-cast concrete panels up to full boundary height height with the option of a surface pattern and coloured overlay for external visual appeal. Polycarbonate sheets are fitted to the top sections of walls to allow natural light.

Roof

Coloursteel® long-run iron sheets are are positioned over the rolled roof structure and screw-fixed to Duragal RHS steel framing.
