NOTE: Metal building systems may be economical
solutions for providing a usable structure if this
type of system is acceptable to the user. Interior
finishing of metal buildings will be held to a
minimum, and siting of metal buildings in areas
inconsistent with their architectural appearance
will be avoided.
In order to fully benefit from the inherent savings
in utilizing acceptable components which are
standard with the building manufacturers, items such
as doors, windows, and ventilators will not be
specified by reference to other sections based on
the guide specifications for these items, unless the
number of buildings required or the performance
requirements are such as to make the references to
other sections necessary.
Designs of acceptable metal building systems vary
widely regarding such features as roof slopes, panel
configurations, fastener types and spacings,
