The Challenge
Why This Product Exists
Aircraft hangars require the most demanding structural engineering in steel construction: clear spans exceeding 60 meters, door openings of 50+ meters, and heights accommodating aircraft tail sections, all while resisting extreme wind loads and meeting strict aviation safety regulations.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Using truss and space frame systems, we can achieve clear spans exceeding 100 meters, sufficient for wide-body aircraft such as Boeing 777 and Airbus A380. Standard portal frame hangars support spans up to 80 meters.
We design structures compatible with all major hangar door types: bi-fold (vertical lifting), horizontal sliding, stacking, and bottom-rolling doors. Door selection depends on opening width, wind loads, and operational requirements.
Yes. We design aircraft hangars for all seismic zones using moment-resistant frames and bracing systems that accommodate the unique challenges of wide-span structures in earthquake-prone regions.
Coastal hangars receive Sa2.5 grade shot blasting followed by hot-dip galvanizing at 400–600 g/m² (50–70 μm coating thickness). For extreme marine environments, we add a multi-layer paint system over the galvanized surface. All critical welded connections undergo 100% Non-Destructive Testing (NDT).
