Flexibility of Lifespan

Norseman buildings can be designed and installed as either a permanent or temporary structure. Build your structure to last a lifetime or choose a foundation option that allows you to move your building to a new location for future use. Only need your building for a short time period? Rental and lease options are also available. ShelterSolutions are always designed with your needs in mind.

Fabric Buildings for Construction

During construction projects, crews often work around the clock in various weather conditions. From extreme heat to freezing snow and wild rainstorms, the climate can be challenging, and construction sites need shelter for their workers and equipment.

Fabric buildings for construction are ideal ShelterSolutions due to their durability, quick construction time, ability to dismantle or relocate, and clear span space. These structures can be customized to fit your project’s needs from a 50’ peak high clearance to movable buildings on rails. With a steel truss frame designed for strength and durability, you can have peace of mind that your people and your operations are protected. Norseman Structures has manufactured fabric buildings for construction companies all over Canada and the United States. From shelters that protect workers from the outside elements to warehouses and storage buildings for materials and equipment, these structures have a wide variety of uses on any construction site.

At Norseman Structures we are committed to designing construction fabric buildings around your project needs. Your construction site may have limited space and you may need a building that can be operational within just a few weeks. Fabric buildings for construction and infrastructure are designed specific to your site requirements. Whether it is a structure for rail line repairs, for constructing an LRT system, for curing concrete during construction of a bridge or highway, we’ve done it. We are a fully integrated company making us agile and experienced to deliver fabric buildings for infrastructure in all parts of the world.

Compared to a traditional building solution, a fabric structure for construction projects is far more beneficial in many aspects, including:

Quick Installation – Weeks instead of months
Flexible Design Options – From basic buildings to fully integrated custom solutions
Temporary and Relocatable – Built to last a lifetime, and designed to be easily dismantled and relocated if necessary
Clear Span Space – Able to freely maneuver equipment and materials
Bright, Airy Environment – Translucent fabric brings in natural light and creates an ideal workspace

Application Highlights

Concrete Curing

You will hear us say, ShelterSolutions are More than a Building – and here is one of the reasons why. Many construction projects don’t just need a building; they require a temperature controlled environment for concrete curing and a solution for moving the components after they are cured. This “building” is definitely more than a building; it’s part of the quality control process. Norseman Structures has designed many concrete curing ShelterSolutions for some of the most quality-minded companies in North America, including eight structures on rails for the construction of Champlain Bridge in Montreal, QC by SSLC. The quality standard was to ensure the bridge would last twice as long as the previous one, meaning the quality of concrete was essential to the project’s success. But how do you cure a 50’ pier within a temperature-controlled building and then somehow move it by crane into the river? Hint: You don’t move the pier; you move the building. Learn more about this story and how a fabric building for construction might work for you.

Workshops

During construction, you need your team working as quickly and as efficiently as possible. This means providing them with an environment that is protected from rain, wind, snow, and extreme heat. Norseman Structures has the experience and expertise to design structures that provide ideal working conditions, and can be dismantled and re-purposed once the project is complete.

Warehouses and Storage Facilities

Every construction project requires materials that need to be quick to access and stored in a secure environment. The site may not have access to an existing space suited for this need. Norseman Structures can have warehouses and storage facilities up within a matter of weeks and can work around your site environment. Select a foundation option that works for your space and reduces ground disturbance.
