Insulated Metal Panels Information
Premium Insulated Metal Panels
Insulated metal panels (IMPs) are one of the premium products that National Steel Buildings specializes in. Insulated metal panels are ideal for many wall and roofing applications, including architectural, commercial, industrial, and institutional markets. NSB’s insulated metal panels offer excellent R-value and improve energy efficiency, while also having many exterior coatings and colors to meet your architectural and design needs.
Cost-Effective Solution
IMPs cut costs across the entire design and construction cycle because they deliver the functionalities of several different products in one pre-assembled piece. IMPs contain their own thermal and moisture barriers, and they’re available in a wide variety of colors, widths, profiles, and finishes.

Steel construction is significantly faster than conventional building. After drawings are approved and materials delivered, installation typically runs weeks rather than months, depending on size and site work.
Steel goes up far faster than conventional construction. Once drawings are approved and materials delivered, installation usually runs weeks rather than months, depending on size and site prep.
Because components are pre-engineered and fabricated off site, steel hangars go up far faster than conventional construction. Timelines vary with permitting, site work, and size, but prefabrication removes most of the on-site cutting and welding that slows traditional builds.
The construction timeline for a steel building depends on several factors including the size and complexity of the building, site preparation requirements, and weather conditions. Generally, pre-engineered steel buildings can be constructed much faster than traditional buildings. The manufacturing process typically takes 4-8 weeks after order approval, and on-site erection can often be completed in 3-12 weeks depending on the size and complexity of the building. Smaller buildings may be erected in 3-4 weeks, while larger commercial or industrial facilities may take 8-12 weeks. Our experienced erection crews at ProTrades, LLC, an NSB Company, work efficiently to ensure your building is completed on schedule.
Timelines vary with size, complexity, and permitting, but a typical steel warehouse moves from design and engineering to delivery in a matter of weeks, with installation once your site is ready. Because we handle engineering, manufacturing, and installation in-house, there are fewer handoffs and delays than a multi-vendor project.

Common hangars range from roughly 40×40 for a single light aircraft up to 60×60, 80×80, and much larger for business jets and multi-aircraft storage. Door width and clear height are driven by your largest aircraft’s wingspan and tail height.
Gyms and courts, riding arenas, indoor sports, event and community venues, and more. Clear-span framing gives you full-size, column-free floors with the ceiling height active uses need.
Equipment and machinery storage, hay and feed, livestock, workshops, and multi-use barns. Clear-span framing means no interior columns, so you get the full width to work with.
Steel buildings are incredibly versatile and can be used for a wide variety of applications. Common uses include agricultural facilities (equipment storage, livestock stables, hay storage), commercial buildings (retail space, corporate headquarters), industrial facilities (warehouses, manufacturing plants), garages and auto repair shops, aviation hangars, boat storage facilities, churches and religious buildings, recreational buildings (gyms, sports facilities, riding arenas), and residential applications (workshops, barns, and even homes). The flexibility of steel building design allows for customization to meet virtually any need, from small personal storage buildings to large commercial and industrial facilities.
The most common systems are bifold doors, hydraulic one-piece doors, and sliding or bi-parting doors. We engineer the hangar structure around your door choice so it opens reliably for the life of the building.
An aircraft hangar is an enclosed building used to store, protect, and service aircraft. Steel hangars use a clear-span frame, so the interior is completely open with no interior columns to work around when moving planes in and out.
National Steel Buildings stands behind the quality of our products and services. We offer comprehensive warranties on our steel building systems. The specific warranty terms depend on the components and materials used in your building. Typically, our steel building systems come with manufacturer warranties covering materials and workmanship. Paint and finish warranties are also included, often ranging from 20 to 40 years depending on the coating system selected. We recommend discussing warranty details with your sales representative during the quoting process to understand the specific warranty coverage for your building. Our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction means we work to resolve any issues that may arise during and after construction.
We design clear-span steel warehouses from small storage buildings up to large distribution facilities hundreds of feet wide. Clear-span construction means no interior columns, so the full width stays open for racking, equipment, and vehicle movement. Tell us your required square footage and ceiling height and we will engineer it to fit.
Clear-span framing keeps sightlines open in the sanctuary and leaves room for fellowship halls, classrooms, offices, and nurseries, all without interior columns in the way.
Steel buildings offer numerous advantages over traditional construction methods. They are highly durable, resistant to fire, pests, and extreme weather conditions. Steel buildings are cost-effective with lower construction costs, reduced insurance premiums, and minimal maintenance expenses. They also feature quick construction times due to pre-engineered designs, meaning faster delivery and installation compared to traditional buildings. Additionally, steel requires minimal upkeep and resists rot, mold, and corrosion for years to come.
Steel is durable, fire-resistant, and low-maintenance, and clear-span interiors give you more usable working space than post-frame or wood-framed shops.
Steel delivers wide clear-span interiors, stands up to heavy snow and wind when engineered for it, and needs little maintenance, making it a durable, cost-effective choice for large open spaces.
Steel resists rot, fire, and pests, holds up to heavy snow and wind when engineered for it, and needs far less maintenance over its life. Clear-span steel also gives you wider, column-free interiors than post-frame.
