With Star, you get the ideal blueprint for aesthetic appeal, energy efficiency and economy on your next building project. You’ll never have to worry about structural integrity, because Star buildings are engineered for long-term strength and durability.

Buildings can be engineered to withstand winds in excess of 120 miles per hour, snow accumulations in excess of 150 pounds per square foot, and seismic loads as required by local building codes. Elements such as sprinkler systems, cranes and HVAC systems can be incorporated into the building certification as required.

Star has the know-how to meet tough building challenges. Interiors with wide open spaces, unusual ceiling heights and extreme load requirements are computer engineered to you exact needs.

Star building systems are engineer certified for any of the 50 states to meet the structural provisions of required model codes, as well as state and local codes. This minimizes costly delays when it comes time to get permits and building approvals.

Computer analyzed and tested rigid frame design provided the most economical means of transferring loads into the foundation. Light-weight, high-strength steel allows structural components to be easier and less expensive to assemble. Further savings are realized through built-up plate and open web technology. This reduces costly and unnecessary steel from structural members without compromising strength or load carrying capacity.

When wide open spaces for showrooms, arenas, or display areas are needed, 80’ to 300’ wide column free systems are available. To limit column spacing for large warehouses or manufacturing facilities, a system can be engineered with up to 200’ wide modules and 80’ bay spacing, allowing a 200’x 80’ grid for column spacing. And all systems can be provided up to 80’ in height.

Mezzanines can be added for office areas, classrooms or storage space. To maximize savings in building costs and land usage, multi-story structures are available up to 4 stories tall.

Structures no longer conform to just the traditional rectangle. Star meets the needs of buildings specified in the shape of triangles,pyramids and polygons. Such diversity offers economically creative solutions for unique challenges posed by space or function.

From a single building, to a diverse complex of buildings, individuality in your building’s appearance can be achieved through a wide array of facades, fascias, hip roofs, cupolas and clerestories. Whatever the need, Star Building Systems can meet I with style, speed, economy, function, adaptability, and above all, proven engineering.
