Building Types

Warehouse & Distribution Buildings

Metal building construction for storage, distribution and logistics operations. Plan the building and the surrounding site together so trucks, inventory and people can move efficiently.

Plan the Building Around Its Use

The following decisions help establish a clear scope before design, procurement and field work.

Storage and Clearances

Define storage methods, rack layouts and operating clearances with the owner’s equipment suppliers. These requirements inform column spacing, building height and fire protection coordination.

Truck Access and Loading

Review trailers, dock positions, turning movements and staging areas alongside the site plan. Loading operations can shape the project as much as the building footprint.

Floor Requirements

Communicate forklift traffic, rack loading and floor tolerances before concrete is priced. Joint planning and embedded items should be coordinated with the intended storage system.

Supporting Spaces

Offices, restrooms, battery charging and maintenance areas need defined locations and utility requirements. Including them early helps avoid changes after the shell is ordered.

Define the Construction Scope

SiteworkAccess, grading, drainage and preparation for the proposed building.

Foundations and ConcreteProject-specific foundations, slabs and related concrete work coordinated with the design documents.

Metal Building ErectionDelivery planning and erection coordinated with the supplier drawings and construction sequence.

Related ConstructionIdentify enclosure, utility and interior requirements so included work and exclusions are clear.

Planning your project

Common Questions.

Send the project location, intended use, approximate dimensions and any available plans. Include the scope you need Bolt to perform, whether that is erection, foundations and concrete, or a broader construction package.

Share the supplier drawings, delivery schedule and proposed construction scope. We can review the information to determine what is needed before pricing or scheduling the work.
