May is Building Safety Month, a time to underscore the importance of resilient and sustainable construction practices with safety standards in mind. At Robertson Building Systems, we are dedicated to leading the industry by delivering custom-engineered metal buildings that meet local building codes, supporting the security and well-being of all who use our structures.
The Value of Building Safety
Building Safety Month highlights the critical role of building codes in protecting communities. From resisting natural disasters to helping achieve long-term structural integrity, properly designed buildings form the foundation of secure and thriving societies. This year’s theme promotes safe spaces for everyone, fostering innovation and collaboration to create enduring structures.
At Robertson, safety is a core principle. Our team is committed to delivering buildings and structures that support safety initiatives and meet local building codes, providing peace of mind for our clients and the communities they serve.
Robertson’s Commitment to Safety and Compliance
With a rich history in the metal building industry, Robertson Building Systems is recognized for fabricating durable, resilient, and high-quality structures. Our buildings are engineered to comply with the International Building Code (IBC), ASCE 7 standards, and regional codes. Here’s how we support safe spaces in every project:
1. Engineered for Durability
Every Robertson building is tailored to address the specific environmental challenges of its location. Whether it’s withstanding high winds in coastal regions or supporting heavy snow loads in colder climates, our advanced engineering helps ensure structural resilience. Our buildings are designed to endure extreme conditions to create resilient spaces with long-term value.
2. Advanced Fire Safety Measures
Fire protection is integral to our designs. Robertson’s metal building systems incorporate fire-resistant materials and assemblies based on local code requirements. By using non-combustible components and integrating fire-safety features, such as proper building exits, we help mitigate risks for occupants and property.
3. Seismic Resilience
In earthquake-prone regions, Robertson’s buildings are designed for seismic performance. Our systems align with IBC and ASCE 7 seismic standards, featuring robust framing and secure connections to provide stability during seismic events. Safety standards are considered throughout the building design.
4. Sustainability and Safety Combined
Robertson’s energy-efficient solutions, such as insulated metal panels and reflective roof coatings, help improve occupant comfort while contributing to durability and environmental goals. By blending sustainability with code compliance, we create structures that benefit both people and the planet.
Partnering for a Safer Future
At Robertson, we view building safety as a shared responsibility. We collaborate with architects, contractors, and project owners to deliver solutions tailored to each community’s safety needs. Our extensive network of Authorized Builders helps to ensure local expertise and a commitment to excellence, which means that every Robertson building is managed with precision and care.
This Building Safety Month, we invite you to join us in celebrating the importance of safe construction practices. Whether you’re planning a commercial, industrial, or community project, Robertson Building Systems is your partner for building with confidence.
