Engineer-to-Engineer Guidance.
Get technical specifications, 3D structural models for trade coordination, and delivery confidence.
Engineering Rigor Matters.
Every project carries professional liability. Specifying unproven materials or working with suppliers who can't deliver creates risk—schedule delays, cost overruns, or performance failures that impact your firm's reputation and your PE license.
We help you mitigate that risk. Our engineering team provides value-engineering analysis to meet your performance requirements within budget constraints. You receive 3D structural steel models compatible with your coordination workflow, so your mechanical, electrical, and civil teams can identify conflicts before construction begins. Our installation methodology encloses the building shell quickly with minimal on-site labor hours, maintaining your critical path while other trades proceed without weather delays. You get sealed calculations, third-party testing data, and clear scope documentation that withstand technical scrutiny.

Technical Specifications
-
Structural System
Rigid steel I-beam framework delivers clear spans up to 300+ feet without interior columns. Unlike cable or truss membrane systems, our structural approach supports collateral loads including overhead cranes, process equipment, conveyors, and specialized HVAC systems. Steel structure is fully detailed in 3D model (TEKLA) allowing for complex trade integration with your multi-discipline design team.
-
Load-Bearing Capacity
The steel frame system accommodates heavy hanging loads critical to industrial operations. We provide load tables, connection details, and foundation requirements for your engineering review. Buildings are designed to support equipment integration requirements specific to your project.
-
Lateral System Design
Our approach to lateral loads, diaphragm design, and collector elements follows standard engineering practice. We can walk through our structural calc package and PVC cladding load transfer methodology engineer-to-engineer.
-
Corrosion Protection
EpoxxiShield™ epoxy coating frame finish provides corrosion resistance superior to hot-dip galvanizing in harsh environments—documented through independent testing protocols. Unlike hollow steel sections that corrode internally, solid I-beam construction allows visual inspection and maintains structural integrity. The building envelope will not rust, corrode, or require periodic recoating.
-
Material Performance Data
ExxoTec™ PVC cladding specifications: tensile strength (warp and fill directions), tear propagation resistance, thermal expansion coefficient, fire rating, and UV resistance engineered for 20+ year service life. All performance data is backed by third-party testing, not manufacturer claims.
Single-Source Accountability
Defined Scope & Interfaces
We provide detailed scope matrices showing exactly what Legacy delivers versus what you provide. Foundation loads, anchor bolt requirements, grounding specifications, and utility coordination are documented clearly—no grey areas that create disputes during construction.
Schedule Commitments with Consequences
Our ability to control all aspects of the building shell (design, manufacture, install) provides confidence on maintaining critical path schedule tasks. Legacy's unique system gets the building under roof much quicker than other construction types.
Design-Build Integration
Our in-house engineering team works directly with designers and manufacturing, resolving potential issues before they become costly delays. This coordination means faster approvals and fewer change orders, protecting your budget and schedule.
Quality Control & Inspection
Shop fabrication inspection protocols, field installation hold points, and material testing procedures are defined upfront. We document acceptance criteria, substantial completion requirements, and punch list processes before work begins.

FAQs
-
Can you provide sealed structural calculations for our review?
Yes. Every Legacy building includes a professional engineer's stamp and sealed calculations. We can provide our full structural calc package from similar completed projects so your team can evaluate our methodology before moving forward.
-
What contract structures can you accommodate?
We work with lump sum, guaranteed maximum price, cost-plus, and unit price contracts. We understand EPC contract requirements and can structure agreements that align with your project delivery method and risk allocation preferences.
-
How do you handle equipment integration and coordination?
We provide structural loads, connection locations, and access requirements for your process equipment, HVAC systems, and electrical installations. Our team coordinates with your mechanical and electrical engineers to ensure seamless integration and avoid conflicts during construction.
-
What happens if site conditions differ from what was assumed?
Our contracts address changed conditions upfront—rock excavation, groundwater, soil bearing variations. We define the change order process, pricing methodology, and approval requirements before work begins to avoid disputes.
-
Can Legacy work in remote locations with limited site access?
Yes. Our structures are designed for deployment in rugged, isolated sites. Components are prefabricated off-site for efficient shipping and rapid installation with standard construction equipment. We've successfully completed projects in locations with minimal infrastructure.
-
What warranties cover what, and for how long?
Structural frame, membrane, and EpoxxiShield™ coating each carry specific warranty terms. We provide complete warranty documentation during proposal, including durations, exclusions, and transferability, so there are no surprises.
