Roof Pitch.  All standard VersaTube structures are manufactured to a 3:12 pitch.  Other pitches available for custom and special order structures.

Ground Snow & Wind Loads.  The VersaTube framing system and structures are engineered and configured to address local area ground snow and wind load requirements.  Ground snow PSF (pounds per square foot) and wind velocity & exposure level (MPH @ B or C exposure) help determine the appropriate size and configuration of a VersaTube building package.

Consult your local building permit department for local loading requirements.  In most cases, a VersaTube structure can be customized to accommodate higher snow loads (reduced on center spacing, truss bracing, etc.) and anchoring can be increased to address higher wind load levels.

All standard complete building kits are designed and configured to be code compliant.  Many will not require stamped engineering drawings, but they are available at an additional cost if needed.  Use an Engineering Package Order Form for ordering stamped plans with calculations and/or stamped engineered drawings if required for permitting.
