Large, open column free spaces for freedom of movement and placement of racks and conveyor systems.
Excellent facility lighting with substantial energy savings in daylight hours.
Ease of facility expansion to accommodate increased demand.
United Airlines East Boston, Massachusetts Aviation Project
The nearly 69,000 sf, hangar measures 255 ft. wide by 270 ft. long and has 30 ft vertical sidewalls. 850,000 pounds of hot dipped galvanized steel comprised the framework of the new hangar with a white translucent membrane for the roof area. Insulated metal cladding for the walls increases the efficiency of the new facility.
The hangar is fully equipped featuring a state of the art overhead high expansion foam fire suppression system, improved radiant heating, aircraft power stations, offices and 64 foot-candle metal halide lighting system. These lights are not necessary during the day time hours as the highly translucent membrane allows nearly 300 foot candles of natural light to reach the floor on sunny days.

United Airlines, Inc. Miami, Florida Aviation Project
This 101.7' (63m) by 400' (122m) long twin link structure is similar to the two previous United Airlines air cargo facilities at JFK International Airport and Honolulu International Airport.
The 82,400 Ft2 (7,686 m2) facility with 32' (10m) sidewalls features a well engineered hot dip galvanized steel frame over which is tensioned a PVC coated polyester membrane. This combination of steel frame and membrane provides an ideal weather tight shell. Utilizing a translucent white membrane for the roof means that the interior space will be a light and airy work environment.
