Metal Frame Gauge

Metal buildings, barns, carports, garages and other structures from Carport1 are built with a metal frame using either 12-gauge or 14-gauge steel. Both of these options are premium metals which can withstand severe weather and wear or tear.
Gauge is the the thickness, size, or capacity of something, especially as a standard measure. In the case of our all-metal buildings, steel gauge means the thickness and strength of the steel components of that structure. Hence, the thicker the framing, the greater strength and the value.

14-gauge Framing
The 14-gauge steel frame from Carport1 measures 2 ½” x 2 ½” inches diameter. The 14 gauge frame tends to be more economical than the 12-gauge frame and has a lower tensile strength. So, metal carport or metal building kits with 14-gauge framing are cost-effective and are recommended in areas with a mild climate.
12 Gauge Framing
The 12-gauge steel frame measures 2 ¼” x 2 ¼” in diameter. It is thicker than the 14-gauge frame and is the strongest Carport1 option available for metal buildings. The 12-gauge framing features higher tensile strength and is more useful for the carports in the areas with heavy snows and winds.
Carport1 recommends that strong concrete foundations are used when constructing metal carports, buildings, barns and other structures in areas prone to tornadoes, hurricanes or hailstorms.
For the areas which receive heavy rainfall and snowfall, Carport1 recommends installing a 12-gauge metal frame and 26-gauge roof panels. For the areas with hot and humid temperature, installing a 14-gauge premium metal frames and 29-gauge roof panels should suffice.

Metal shelters in Oklahoma are mostly influenced by fluctuating weather throughout the year. With such a changing weather pattern, it is essential that you determine what sort of metal structure will withstand harshest of the weather and fits your need.
Oklahoma state suffers from weather extremes, tornadoes and precipitation. We offer 12-gauge and 14-gauge tubing options in order to stand harsh weather conditions in Oklahoma such as tornadoes, precipitation and extremes.
For the roof panels, we offer 29-gauge default for small metal buildings. The option to upgrade to 26-gauge panels is more practical for large metal buildings and commercial units.
The areas with drier and hot temperature can choose to install 29-gauge panels for roof and 14-gauge tubing for the structure.
The weather of Oklahoma is extreme some of the months. Hence, we recommend that people of Oklahoma install a thicker tubular framing, probably 12-gauge steel frames. They would also require stronger 26-gauge roof panels. Boxed Eave or Vertical styled roof works most excellent in these areas.
The areas with intense weather and wind should install stronger metal structures with a stable concrete base. The vertical roof is the suggested roof style option. Furthermore, if you’re still dubious, you can add more features such as anchors and so forth. Anchors help your building to not get blown away by the wind.
In the Southwest of Oklahoma, the temperature rises, and in winter, it falls extremely. For more protection, in the areas of Oklahoma with the highest rate of a tornado, one can fully enclose their metal structure.
Roof Styles Recommended for Oklahoma Residents.
Carport1 offers three styles of strong and attractive roof design, all of which are permitted in Oklahoma. When customizing your Carport1 steel building, carport, barn and other structure, consider which roof best fits your requirements for weather, use, property and protection. The style of the roof also determines the dead load and live load of the structure. Anyone in Oklahoma can consider installing a metal building with either of these 3 roof styles.

VERTICAL ROOF STYLE – BEST
Vertical roof style is an A-frame design that works best for harsh climate conditions, such as, heavy snowfall and torrential rain. The vertical roof panel allows snow and water to slide easily off the roof with zero residues. In vertical roof style, the panels on the roof are oriented in a vertical orientation along the width of the structure.
BOXED EAVE STYLE – BETTER
Boxed Eave style, also an A-frame design, is the roof style which has roof panels that are laid horizontally along the length of the carport. This is a more affordable than vertical roof styling. The roof style works best in the moderate climate with the occasional heavy winds or gust.
REGULAR – GOOD
Regular style roof is the most common and economical choice for carports and metal buildings. These metal roofs tend to be lighter than other roof styles. The corrugated ridges run from end to end and they work great in an area with mild weather. This roof style is perfect for protecting your vehicle from direct sunlight or mellow rain/snow.

Additional support

Gable ends
Gable ends are a design feature that increase coverage to your metal carport and building. Triangular in shape, Carport1's attractive all-metal sheet is tightly attached to the roof and provides additional structural support.
Metal carports and metal buildings with gable ends are recommended for many parts of Oklahoma where harsh weather occurs. Ask about the Carport1 difference.

Panels
Carport1 offers optional all-steel panels on the sides of steel frames for added structural support and strength in our metal and steel carports, garages, barns, RV Covers and other structures. If you live in a section of Oklahoma that encounters heavy wind and rain typical of tornadoes and hurricanes, we recommend adding panels to outdoor metal structures.
Bows and trusses
Carport1 uses architectural bows and trusses to strengthen and stabilize the roofs of its quality metal buildings. Generally, metal structure with a width size of 24 ft. will include a bow, and those wider than 24 ft. will feature a truss. These features are important for residents of Oklahoma who experience heavy snowfall or heavy rain.
