Understand the full structural system

The frame, roof members, columns, connections, base plates and anchoring work as one system. A quotation should identify the intended use and site rather than treating each component independently.

Compare dimensions with the intended layout

Span, length, eave height and bay spacing affect capacity, circulation and equipment clearance. Reference drawings are most useful when compared with an actual floor plan.
