Safeguard Your Assets
Aircraft hangers provide space for commercial airliners and recreational aircrafts to be prepared for flight, stored and maintained. Because the aviation industry includes aircrafts of all sizes and uses, hangars are typically designed to support specific operations. A hangar for one recreational aircraft will be designed very differently than a massive airport hangar for multiple commercial airliners.
Wood, metal, fabric and hybrid structures can all serve as suitable aviation hangars depending on an operation’s requirements. While your needs may vary depending on your facility, fabric aircraft hangars from Calhoun Super Structure are perfect for the aviation industry. Whether you need to store a single aircraft or an entire fleet, we deliver the durable, long-term solutions necessary to store and maintain your aircraft. From standard hangar designs to custom solutions, our structures offer superior aircraft protection during storage.
Traditional aircraft buildings often encounter issues such as inadequate lighting, limited space, and material deterioration from harsh weather. Wood, for example, may deteriorate quickly, potentially exposing valuable aircraft and equipment to the elements. In contrast, fabric structures offer several compelling advantages that address these challenges effectively.
Engineered with hot-dip galvanized (HDG) steel, our fabric structures are highly resistant to corrosion, ensuring long-term protection for your assets. The breathable fabric facilitates natural airflow, preventing moisture buildup and further reducing the risk of rust. Additionally, these structures can be customized for temperature control, maintaining a comfortable environment for both personnel and sensitive equipment year-round.
The fundamental benefit of fabric structures is their expansive, free-span interiors, which can have widths up to 250 feet and customizable lengths, providing ample space for maneuvering and storing aircraft and equipment. Their rapid assembly minimizes operational downtime, allowing you to utilize the space almost immediately. Each structure is custom-engineered using our advanced 3D non-linear analysis, tailored to meet specific needs and withstand extreme weather and seismic conditions.
Due to their durability and use-case versatility, fabric structures are the ideal choice for modern aviation facilities. From small recreational hangars to multi-structure operations, our solutions offer high-ROI and peace of mind.
BENEFITS
Calhoun’s aviation buildings deliver unmatched longevity. Our HDPE fabric withstands heavy element forces while remaining ventilated. HDG steel frames create durable structures — you’ll get superior performance and longevity when you choose our fabric buildings. Customizable support systems, stable foundations and high-performance materials ensure your structure is engineered to last.
From the galvanized steel frames to the engineered high-density polyethylene (HDPE) fabric cover, our materials are durable and reliable in the weather. Our materials are thoroughly tested to ensure superior quality, protecting your aircraft from sun, rain and snow. Together, these components create an airtight structure to shield your aircraft from moisture and other exterior elements that could degrade your equipment.
You need a hangar without interior pillars and poles that would prevent you from maximizing your space. Our quality fabric structures offer clear span interiors up to 250 feet wide and any length necessary. They provide an expansive clear span interior free of interior poles, yielding access and maneuverability for aircrafts of all sizes
The natural light of Calhoun’s fabric aviation structures permeates the indoor facility, reducing energy costs while increasing the level of comfort and visibility to workers. Skylights and solar panels can easily be added to the building to increase visibility and energy efficiency.
At Calhoun, we offer both permanent and temporary structures. Unlike metal or wood, fabric structures easily disassemble to relocate or extend for more space. If you have long-term needs, our structures also make effective permanent solutions. These options give you more flexibility with your space, allowing you to expand your hangar as needed.
In addition to our standard fabric structure designs, we also offer custom engineering options to meet the aviation industry’s specific needs. From specific sizing requirements to additional doors, our team works with you to ensure optimal functionality. Our fully customizable solutions provide you with the most effective fabric structure solution for your aircraft needs.
