What is a shed?
An industrial shed is a metal structure with a sloping roof that usually has large entrance openings and is used for industrial, commercial, and sports applications. These structures are considered one of the most common choices in large projects due to their speed of construction, adequate strength, and economic efficiency.
In terms of roof form, sheds can be designed with two sloping sides, one sloping side, crescent, or arch, and are used in various spaces such as airplane hangars, warehouses and parking lots, industrial workshops and garages, livestock and poultry farms, sports halls, and factory production lines.
Types of sheds based on structural weight
In terms of weight and type of structural design, sheds are divided into two general categories: heavy sheds and light sheds.
Heavy shed
A heavy shed is built with more materials and parts and has very high resistance. For this reason, its final cost is relatively higher and is usually used in large projects or structures with special technical conditions and specific loading.
Lightweight Shed
A lightweight shed is lighter and therefore more economical. This type of shed is easily transported and installed, and while lightweight, it has standard and reliable resistance. Lightweight sheds are most commonly used in sports halls, warehouses, and even temporary structures, and are designed and manufactured in various models and dimensions to suit the needs of the project.
Advantages of Lightweight Shed
Many employers prefer lightweight sheds to heavy sheds due to reduced construction and installation costs, high speed of implementation, and easy movement. These structures have good resistance to different weather conditions, and they also have high design diversity and provide customization capabilities based on the needs of the project.
Conclusion
The right choice between lightweight and heavy sheds plays an important role in the efficiency, durability, and economic efficiency of the project. Both types of sheds, if designed and implemented correctly, can meet industrial and commercial needs.
At Sabat Sanat Shomal Industrial Group, all types of sheds are designed and manufactured in accordance with current engineering standards and are offered in accordance with the needs of various industries.
