frequently asked QUESTIONS
WHAT IS A POST-FRAME BUILDING?
Post Frame is a type of construction method that utilizes large, widely spaced vertical posts or columns embedded in the ground. Along with roof trusses, these posts serve as the primary structural support for the building, with horizontal framing components, such as strapping, to provide additional support to the walls and roof. The building is typically finished in steel cladding.

What are the advantages of post-frame construction?
Post-frame construction is an efficient and cost-effective way to build various types of structures including agricultural buildings, commercial buildings, personal shops, riding arenas and storage buildings.
The advantage of post-frame construction is that due to the building’s simplified design and repetitiveness of post spacing and strapping, the construction process is relatively quick. Post-frame construction is also very cost-effective, especially for very large buildings such as machine sheds and riding arenas. Post-frame buildings allow for flexibility in design so you can create the building that will meet your unique needs.
What are the typical uses for post-frame buildings?
Post-frame buildings are versatile structures suitable for a wide range of applications, including residential, commercial, agricultural, equine, shops and storage, and industrial. If you can dream it, we can work with you to build it.

What are the key steps in constructing a post-frame building?
From initial design to completed construction, your Integrity Post Structures sales representative will be with you every step of the way. The first critical step is site preparation, which includes levelling the construction site and ensuring proper drainage. Once the site is prepped our team will initiate construction starting with drilling for the wood-post or perma-column foundation. Upon completion of the structure, including exterior walls, roof, windows, doors and cladding, you can work independently, or with a General Contractor, to complete your additional requirements that may or may not include electrical, heating, concrete and finishings. Integrity can quote and perform your exterior wall and ceiling insulation.

What factors should I consider when designing a post-frame building?
Design considerations can vary widely depending on the intended use of the building, local building codes, environmental factors, and personal preferences. Common considerations include size and layout, window, egress and large door requirements, exterior metal colours, aesthetic features and insulation packages. Integrity can also include mezzanines and stairs for 2nd-floor use, as well as partition walls to create interior separation.
