EXCELLENCE IN DESIGN
EXCELLENCE IN DESIGN
FROM CONCEPT TO COMPLETION, YOUR
BUILDING IS A REFLECTION OF YOUR DESIGN
CAPABILITIES AND MONTHS OF HARD WORK.
American Buildings Company salutes the winning entries in the 2013 Excellence in Design competition.
These award-winning projects represent buildings in 14 categories, from agriculture to retail, from auto
dealerships to roofing. Each one highlights the diverse applications of metal systems construction.
More than just a collection of photos, the Excellence in Design competition is a compelling vehicle
for inspiring new designs and illustrating the many ways metal building systems can meet varying
construction needs, regardless of size or complexity. American can work with its Builders and Roofers to
transform ideas into reality and expand the boundaries of metal building systems construction.

THIS STATE-OF-THEART WASTE TRANSFER
FACILITY WAS DESIGNED
TO MEET LEED® GOLD
CERTIFICATION. The unique design
incorporated two bypass tunnels under the building’s
tipping floor to allow for the efficient loading and removal of
debris from the main tipping floor. The exterior shell of the
structure was designed with four different types of poly and
translucent products to allow filtered natural light into the
structure’s main tipping floor.
ONCE INSIDE THE STRUCTURE,
THE MASSIVE FRAMES SPAN
135’ TO A CENTER RAFTER 57’
IN THE AIR, which supports the 20’ tall, 40’
wide single slope spine structure. The spine is accessed
via a custom manufactured catwalk system. Eight large
mechanical fans located in the sidewall of the spine
structure allow for 100% air transfer every half hour within
the facility. When flying into Seattle at night, an incredible
view of this structure is visible due to the light escaping
through the translucent systems, which creates a glow that
can be seen for miles.

REPRESENTS THE
BEAUTY OF AN AMS

SYSTEM FOR NEW
CONSTRUCTION. While long-term
performance remains paramount to the success
of metal roofing, this new installation focused
on providing aesthetically pleasing roofing
solutions. The Loc Seam 360 panels give the
building a distinguished, modern appearance
with clean architectural lines, without sacrificing
performance or quality. The Slate Gray panels
offer a traditional look that will remain appealing
for many years to come.
