Pre-engineered aircraft hangars

PK VESTA offers design and construction of turnkey pre-fabricated aircraft hangars. We build modern, functional and reliable buildings based on Rigid Framing and LSF technology. We are a manufacturing company, we carry out a full range of works, from design to after-sales service and offer prices that are among the best on the market.

Design and construction of aircraft hangars

Aircraft hangars are being built to protect aircraft from vandalism, external influences and precipitation. This is not just a place to hide the aircraft, but a multifunctional complex, which is being inspected and repaired. Proper design of aircraft hangars makes it possible to adapt the structure as much as possible to the needs of the customer, provide appropriate storage and maintenance conditions for equipment, and increase its service life.

Today, reinforced concrete structures are practically not used for the construction of aircraft hangars. They were replaced by prefabricated hangars, which are practically not inferior in terms of strength characteristics, but are much cheaper and faster to build. It is also important that the steel buildings are mobile - such structures can be dismantled, moved to another place and reassembled, which is impossible for reinforced concrete structures.

On average, it takes 2-3 months to build a hangar from LSF, from design to commissioning. The design is carried out taking into account the requirements for buildings of this type, the wishes of the customer and the budget. Structural elements are manufactured at the factory according to the project, after which they are delivered to the facility where they are erected.

Dimensions and structural features

The aircraft hangar system is widely used in the aviation industry for aircraft maintenance, repair and parking. It can be a small facility for small, private jets, or a large facility for large airlines. They build modern steel hangars from Rigid Framing or LSF. Such shelters are durable, energy efficient, and provide reliable protection.

In order for the hangar to meet the requirements, it is necessary to determine its parameters:

1. a permanent or temporary structure is planned;
2. what degree of anti-vandal protection is needed;
3. climatic features;
4. what equipment will be stored;
5. what operations, technological processes are planned to be carried out in the hangar.

The area and dimensions of the hangar depend directly on the size and number of aircraft that will be stored in it. For this type of equipment, as a rule, projects are developed individually.

Inside the hangar there should be no columns or internal supports, while the span of such a structure should be wide enough. An important requirement is fire safety. The materials from which prefabricated hangars are built are not combustible. But, given the specifics of the operation of the building, it is necessary to provide for powerful and efficient ventilation, which will not allow fuel vapors to accumulate inside and increase the risk of fire.

It is also important to control indoor humidity and temperature to ensure the long life of the equipment. Given the large dimensions of the structure, wind and snow loads should be taken into account when calculating the strength.

Aircraft hangars

A pre-fabricated hangar is a steel building with a metal frame installed on a concrete foundation, sheathed with a special facing coating (sandwich panels, insulation, cladding, etc.). The metal parts of the base are attached to each other with the help of special elements. If necessary, the structure can be quickly dismantled and moved to another location.

One of the most common structures is straight-walled hangars. This is the most cost-effective type of hangar. The cost of a structure depends on its size, type of foundation, materials used and other factors. If necessary, you can carry out insulation, organize water supply, heating and other communications.

We can order the design and construction of hangars for aircraft of any type in Moscow with delivery to the regions of Russia, countries of near and far abroad. Our company has been on the Russian construction market since 1991, we carry out a full range of works. You can familiarize yourself with standard steel building projects on our website or design a hangar yourself using WebSteel®. The service is free, available online 24/7/365. With it, you can create sketches, visualize an object, calculate its cost and order delivery to anywhere in the world.
