Steel Structure Aircraft Hangar Building
Aircraft hangar uses to protect and maintain small and large aircraft. It provides ideal solutions to meet the needs of personal aviation storage, commercial aircraft, and private jets. Steel is the best building material for aircraft hangars due to its durability and weather resistance. Although metal is known for its strength, other factors make steel advanced building material.
Steel Aircraft Hangar Building
Steel Structure Aircraft Hangar is large-span single-story buildings used to store and maintain aircraft.
Depending on the number of aircraft and requirements of the plane layout, building height, and structural form of the hangar building also differ, mainly depending on the following factors:
1) Simultaneous maintenance of aircraft type and quantity, maintenance items, and the maintenance required;
2) Requirements and restrictions on height and plane layout of hangar structure ;
3) Requirements for the hangar door and crane and working platform in the hangar;
4) Configuration requirements for fire protection facilities inside and outside the hangar;
5) Site conditions and future development trends.

1. Structure of the aircraft hangar:
The plane layout and height requirements of the aircraft hangar are unique, which directly affects the structure of the building.
Due to the vast span of the hangar, the weight of the roof structure in the total load is significant. The steel structure has the advantages of high strength, lightweight, small cross-section. Therefore, steel structures generally used as load-bearing roof systems for large-span buildings, which can reduce the weight of the roof structure and reduce costs.

2.The door of the hangar building
The hangar door has a unique structure due to its large size and weight, and it needs to be easy to open. To make it easier for planes to enter and exit the hangar, the door usually designed according to the full height of the aircraft hangar. The total length divided into several fans, each of which is about 10-20 meters wide. There is a dedicated guide structure on the top of each door, and the bottom track wheel supports the door leaf, the door leaf made of a steel frame covered with a thin steel plate, the thickness of the door leaf about 500-700 mm.
3.Fireproof design
The hangar has ample space, and many aircraft often maintained inside the building. So there are various maintenance equipment and working platforms accompanied by explosive sources of oil and gas combustion. There should be strict requirements and perfect facilities for fire and explosion protection. Currently, high-foam foam fire extinguishing systems mostly used.
