Maximize Storage Space and Maneuverability
Ports and waterways demand specialized buildings with robust corrosion protection and spacious interiors to efficiently serve as vital transportation hubs. Calhoun Super Structure offers durable, worry-free solutions tailored to the ports and waterways industry.
Built from hot-dip galvanized steel for generational use, Calhoun’s fabric structures are the ideal choice; the breathable, long-lasting HDPE fabric provides abundant natural light and superior ventilation, while our free-span interiors maximize storage functionality for seamless cargo movement. The engineering behind our structures ensure you have a reliable, long-lasting port facility. Whatever size is necessary for your operations, Calhoun works with you to create a structure that meets your needs so you can keep your operations running smoothly.
One of the key challenges with waterfront structures is corrosion. In saline environments, prolonged exposure to moisture significantly accelerates the rusting process, jeopardizing both the appearance and structural integrity of the building. Port storage facilities are particularly vulnerable due to their constant exposure to the corrosive effects of salt and moisture.

BENEFITS
The steel in our storage structures are hot-dipped galvanized for long-lasting durability and to resist corrosion. Our galvanized steel meets industry standards to provide optimal longevity and reduce maintenance needs. Our corrosion-resistant frames are essential for port storage buildings, helping your facility keep its strength longer, even in the face of constant moisture exposure.
Our HDPE fabric is engineered for durability even in harsh weather conditions and is protected from wakening or breaking down due to UV rays with an ultraviolet stabilizer coating.
All our fabric structures are designed with a clear-span interior. Our structures are built without interior poles, columns or pillars to give you maximum storage space, and easily store and maneuver large cargo.
Unlike metal roofing, our fabric structures allow natural light into your storage space. Natural light is more cost-efficient, even and constant, allowing you to minimize energy expenditure. This natural visibility helps increase safety and prevent rodents and pests from finding hiding spaces in dark corners.
Compared to traditional building materials, our fabric covers and steel frames boast low maintenance and operational costs. With the natural light, you save on artificial lighting costs.
While we offer standard designs, we understand that port storage buildings sometimes require specialization to accommodate unusual demands. Whether you need a specific building length or a unique layout, we’ll work with you to engineer the most effective solution.
