If you are thinking about buying or building a fabric building, then you need the answers to the questions below. Rubb is here to help, with no-cost consultations for new buildings, and complementary in-house evaluations of one of your existing buildings or plans.
The design, production and construction experts at Rubb have listened to direct requests from our customers to provide a check list of essential criteria, which ensure our fabric buildings meet clients’ and end users’ needs.
The building framework will consist of structural steelwork and will be designed to meet local building codes with no exceptions
The backbone of a Rubb building is a well-engineered structural framing system, with the best corrosion protection system in the industry. The steel is hot dip galvanized after the welding process to provide a low maintenance building. All steel components are hot dip galvanized to ASTM A-123
Rubb only uses high-strength, heavy-weight, coated architectural membranes from proven suppliers. Many structures are still in use 40 years after installation.
Rubb buildings are designed for site specific, full code-compliance with respect to wind and snow loads.
The membrane cladding of a Rubb building is sealed to provide a weather-tight shell. The buildings can be insulated, heated or air-conditioned as required. Rubb structures are uniquely suited for use as dehumidified facilities.
The flexible membrane and steel frame design of a Rubb building allows installation on uneven or sloping sites. The buildings will also accept moderate differential settlement of the foundations.
PVC-coated polyester membrane will not propagate flame or sustain combustion when exposed to a fire. The structure is self-venting, allowing heat and smoke to escape, a significant safety and risk management advantage
Our high-quality membrane materials and post-production galvanized welded frames deliver durability over time, making the cost of maintaining Rubb buildings more economical compared to conventional structures.
Our established supply chain streamlines coordination of delivery and installation. Pre-fabricated elements and the ability to construct our buildings in a variety of weather conditions speeds up the construction process.
Rubb personnel are on hand to provide help and support, from initial contact to quotation, installation and beyond. Rubb’s commitment to customer service continues after project completion and forms the basis for long-term customer satisfaction.
