The Calhoun Difference
When you invest in a Calhoun fabric structure, you’re not just getting a building — you’re getting a solution engineered to save you money from day one and throughout its entire lifespan. Our buildings are designed for faster installation, lower maintenance, proven durability, and measurable energy savings.
Calhoun Super Structure boasts a competitive fabric building cost per square foot starting at approximately $20 per square foot*. With a lower fabric building cost per square foot than most traditional wood or steel structures, you enjoy immediate cost savings right from the start.
* Cost per square foot is approximate and does not include end walls, foundation, installation, doors, or delivery; based on a standard CC Series hoop structure
Calhoun fabric structures can be installed in a fraction of the time of traditional wood or steel buildings. Whether the bag cover install or keder panel install, our structures can go up to 3X faster than wood or steel — reducing downtime, labor costs, and getting your operations running sooner.
Beyond construction and maintenance, Calhoun fabric structures also deliver substantial energy savings.
In a recent cold storage warehouse project, a Calhoun building achieved:
Natural daylighting from the HDPE fabric cover reduced reliance on artificial lighting, cutting power bills by nearly 90% compared to conventional buildings. These savings translate into thousands of dollars per year in reduced operating costs — accelerating ROI even further.
Delivered in partnership with our New York dealer, Hybrid Building Solutions, this project is proof that Calhoun fabric structures combine strength, durability, and sustainability with measurable financial results.
Hot-dipped galvanized steel frames and componentry resist corrosion for generations, and our Elite HDPE fabric covers are engineered to withstand extreme weather for 25+ years. With minimal upkeep compared to conventional buildings, you’ll save thousands in ongoing maintenance costs.
Calhoun structures are engineered using site-specific 3D analysis to ensure maximum strength under local snow and wind loads. With clear-span widths up to 250′ and no internal support columns, you maximize usable space while extending the life of your investment.

We take your investment seriously
At Calhoun, we value quality. We don’t cut corners, and we don’t undervalue our structures. Calhoun uses independent, third-party engineers to design our fabric buildings that meet critical standards and customer needs, taking into consideration a host of conditions.
Using independent, third-party engineers means they are completely unbiased to organizational influence, ensuring strict objectivity of the design work. Their focus is 100% on your project.
Our quality of care to our customers begins with our high standard for construction materials, from concrete and wood to 50 thousand PSI minimum yield steel. We take full advantage of the best suppliers and the best materials to match our design and construction demands with components that start us off with predictable properties that achieve maximum results.

Your new fabric building is an investment, and you want one that will be safe, reliable, and long-lasting. At Calhoun, we take that very seriously.
