Look past the label
MAX’s range uses double-trussed galvanized frames. To compare an offer, obtain the member sizes, material specifications, truss arrangement, bay spacing, bracing and connection details for that supplied model.
Ask what the design covers
Confirm the building dimensions, openings, foundation or anchoring arrangement and design conditions. A general claim that two tubes are twice as strong, or that every single-truss system is unsafe, is not an adequate comparison.
Include fabrication and protection
Ask for the coating specification and details relevant to the intended environment. Galvanized is a useful description, but it is not a universal corrosion-life guarantee. Keep damage, maintenance and exposure in the review.
Compare equivalent project scope
After the technical information is understood, compare delivery, unloading, installation, site work, documents and warranty. The complete quote tells you more than a frame label or a starting price.
Frequently asked questions
Is double-truss always twice as strong?
No universal multiplier is established by that label. The actual geometry, members, connections and design determine the documented performance.
Does MAX claim every competing single-truss building will fail?
No. Compare the actual engineering and conditions for each building rather than making a category-wide failure claim.
What is the useful next step?
Send the exact offers and project requirements to MAX. We can identify scope differences and route technical questions to the appropriate provider.
Use the right project information
Ask the relevant authority which requirements apply and the appropriate provider which documents your project needs. NRC’s code publications provide the national reference library. Confirm local adoption and application for your project.
For MAX orders, start with the project brief, compare the complete quote scope and frame and cover specifications, and retain the applicable warranty terms. Existing owners can use owner support or parts identification.
