Storage buildings must conform to relevant code requirements, meet business needs and serve a practical and functional purpose for operations. US Chemical Storage provides standard and customized storage building designs that match your specific requirements.
Fire Rated Chemical Storage Buildings
Fire rated storage buildings are designed to meet UL fire rated construction requirements for the compliant storage of flammables, combustibles, and other hazardous materials.Two-hour fire rated storage buildings are available in both uni-directional and bi-directional designs. They meet requirements for storage of flammable and combustible materials located within 10 to 30 feet of an occupied building or property line. Fire protection is provided by multiple layers of fire-resistant gypsum board encased in galvanneal steel sheets.
Four-hour fire rated storage buildings have the additional fire resistance provided by mineral wool insulation. These buildings meet requirements to be located inside or within 10 feet of an occupied building and are explosion proof.
Non-Fire Rated Chemical Storage Buildings
Non-fire rated storage buildings are used to store hazardous at locations 30 feet or greater from occupied buildings or property lines.Built-in containment sumps form an integral part of the solution for non-fire rated storage buildings, ensuring any spill can be contained inside the building and will not contaminate the environment.
Sturdy construction provides security and protection from natural hazards like temperature extremes, high winds and even seismic activity.
Corrosion Resistant Chemical Storage Buildings
Corrosion resistant coatings can be applied to steel and is used in areas where there is a high risk of corrosion. Shelves are available in both galvanized and stainless steel. These shelves have a 2-inch lip to provide spill containment at this area of storage, in addition to the spill containment located within the building. Fiberglass floor grating is available, as well as HDPE spill containment liners, for resistance to corrosive hazardous materials stored within our buildings.
