Cold Formed Buildings are a medium duty pre-engineered metal building. They are ideal for light commercial, warehouse processing, residential shops and barndominiums. With the quickest turn around times offered out of our three building systems, cold formed buildings have become our hottest seller. Customers love how detailed and clean the inside of the galvanized steel framing looks. Using our Online Builder Tool will reveal so many options right at your fingertips. Adding a Gambrel Roof Profile, Mezzanine Floor, or Lean-To’s is so easy and affordable. Easily fasten interior finishes to the Cold Formed framing, to make your columns look like wood, fiber cement board, sheet rock, or whatever you decide. What a great way to separate yourself from the traditional look of a metal building! Click the Online Builder Tool below, if you think this is the way to your future metal building project!
Red Iron Buildings are heavy duty pre-engineered metal buildings that are ideal for wide span applications. With Red Iron buildings often being used in Industrial, Commercial, Agriculture, Horse Arenas, Aviation and Government projects, this building system is definitely not limited to residential projects. Home owners find that larger bay widths offer more flexibility for bay door sizes and locations in side walls along with having greater heights. If you could use a 2400sf+ work shop, with plenty of head room for additional rack storage, a Red Iron Building may be the choice that works best for you!
We strongly suggest using the Cold form online builder tool in tandem with your Red Iron quote form below to locate your framed opening locations such as overhead doors, walk through doors, windows, and louver vents.
Carport Style Buildings are light-duty metal buildings that are very popular for customers that need a practical solution to cover their valuables.
Out of the three building options, a Carport Building is the only option that includes installation in the price! Extend your garage space, protect your RV from the sun, store equipment, a tack shed, horse/livestock barn, kennels for boarding. The list goes on!
The tube framing with horizontal siding design gives this option the fastest turn around time, in terms of install, out of all the options. If you’re looking for the most cost effective solution, and don’t mind a lighter weight building, a carport building could be exactly what you’ve been looking for!

This video is to help show another option to install endwall sheeting angle (rake angle) for overhang framing detailing, and endwall girt coping using shears. I also go into details about flush and inset endwall column conditions and what to remember when you have an inset column with any overhang (purlin extension) condition. Always remember to extend your overhang Purlins per building line dimension and not the 2” inset rafter frame!

Final Walk Through Newcastle, Ca Project
Wanted to take a little time to walk you through the finished building. Showing off some of the features we did will hopefully encourage you to work with us and also turn your project into a DIY. The garage door trim step back was something I haven’t done before. Like I said in the video, my stick built home inspired me to try it. It presented a different but clean texture while offering some more shadow schemes:)

Excited to keep this series going! Nor Cal Strong!
Here is a sample of some our projects that we are proud to showcase!
I came to NorCal Steel buildings through a referral with a concept for a shooting range cover. The design team went above and beyond my expectations! Not only for looks but most important, functionality! I highly recommend NCSB!
I needed a simple garage to work on my classic cars. NCSB worked with my budget to maximize my shop space, along with matching my house colors. I only refer my hot rod buddies and friends to NCSB. Plus, their recommended installers' attention to detail and clean up was outstanding!
I highly recommend Jake at Norcal Steel Buildings! He helped me pick out the right metal building for my needs and was with me through the whole process. Thanks Jake!
We were directed to NCSB from an online source that said they were local. I had a concept in mind that we sent over and NCSB got our dream home drawn up and ordered! Easy processing and it was easy for me to build with their institutional package. They nailed it!
Being a custom home builder based out of Nevada county, we often include a metal shop building in our estimates. We have been working with NCSB for a little over 5 years now and the quality of the metal buildings they have provided has never been a disappointment. If anyone asks us about Metal buildings we always recommend NCSB for the job! They will provide for any option you might need.
