The AVS structure type is a modified version of the AVC with a single pitch roof. The design originated in the US and features a vertical sidewall.
The AVS features vertical lattice frame sidewalls and a single lattice roof pitch per span.
This allows for more interior clearance over the full width of the building, making it the ideal solution for bulk storage facilities and specialized hangars.
The AVS can be adapted in a variety of ways. The leg height can be extended for additional interior clearance.
