Municipal Salt Storage Facility in Gaithersburg, Maryland

SAINT CLOUD, Minn. - Oct. 11, 2022 - PRLog -- Legacy Building Solutions has completed the construction of Montgomery County Salt Storage.

Montgomery Salt is a 18,400 square foot storage facility (100 ft x 184 ft).  The frame-supported, membrane-covered structure is designed for 20 psf ground snow load, 120 miles per hour wind load, wind exposure B, and seismic B conditions.  All framing pieces were factory finished with EpoxxiShield™ COR Pro and clad with white ExxoTec™ Elite PVC fabric.  The building gains passive ventilation through 18-inch mesh soffits, 16 white ARV-2000 roof vents, and 8 black mesh endwall vents.  Legacy understands the importance of ventilation for corrosion mitigation, thus passive, non-mechanical ventilation systems play an integral role in pre-design conversations.

Additionally, there are two 16 feet by 28 feet vinyl bi-parting sliding doors, with 20-foot-wide dormers over each door opening.  The structure has direct bolt fabric termination and a 21-foot poured wall foundation.  The facility was installed by Legacy crews.
