The Maine Department of Transportation’s location in Fairfield, Maine was in need of a custom structure without traditional steel gable ends to serve as a salt shed.
In 2010, the DOT decided to purchase a 60′ x 83.3′ NV structure with 9.84′ sidewalls on a concrete foundation. The building also has a 20′ x 20.9′ overhead door which was installed along with a wooden gable ends supplied by the customer.
The structure is designed to accommodate an 80psf ground snow load and 90mph wind speed with three second gust.
