Anyone here have experience on building metal buildings? My work is having a small garage/shed built using nothing but c purlins and steel roofing panels. It seems like a simple way to build, but I have a few questions.
They are welding a lot of the c purlins to each other with a mig welder and seemingly no prep work. Do c purlins come coated in a weld thru primer? It doesn't seem to be causing issues with the welding.
What kind of costs versus wood are we talking about here? I sure would like to build a large carport/shelter for my motorhome using the same materials.
