 FEATURE    BENEFIT
1 Designers have the capability of arranging sidewall columns that are straight or columns with the more economical tapered section.   1 Flexible design providing for maximum utilization of interior space.
2 NCI fabricates all main framing in accordance with the company's strict AISC quality certification guidelines.   2 The benefit of the quality fabrication practice of NCI is the reduction in building assembly labor, and subsequently lower installation cost.
3 Interior support columns available as either pipe sections or H sections.   3 Wider buildings are feasible more economically.
4 NCI frames come with welded subassemblies. Roof purlin support plates and wall girt support plates are factory welded to the main frames.   4 Saves installation time and increases the overall stiffness of the building.
5 Purlins are supported laterally by the welded plates.   5 Reduces the amount of purlin roll experienced under heavy loading.
6 NCI furnishes all structural bolts with a corrosion protective plating.   6 Improves the appearance of the building and helps to speed up installation process, and no more rusted bolts to contend with.
7 Frames are prefabricated as much as possible.   7 Eliminates costly field work needed to "customize" the frames for specific building configurations.
8 Endwall frames can be simple post and beam type construction, or can be built with a full interior type main frame to accommodate future expansion.   8 Endwalls are furnished in a variety of configurations, again with the flexibility to meet any need.
