NA Structures is unique in the world of off-site building solutions on many levels, but the most striking is our in-house Steel Shop.
NA Structures supplies lumber products exactly as specified by the project architect and engineer. This includes dimension lumber, glulams, LVL, LSL, CLT and NLT.
About Steel
Today’s modern, contemporary or expansive residences require more steel than ever before. NA Structures has risen to this challenge by providing complete in-house fabrication of steel components, offering our architects and builders with vertically integrated and coordinated custom solutions.
Our engineering team designs the steel to minimize the fabricating cost and optimize the on-site installation.
All our wood framing components are fabricated to respect the architect's plans, exceed the engineer's expectations, and bring precision to the jobsite.

This 15,000 sf home on the shores of Lake Michigan has over 130,000 lbs of structural steel in its design. As part of our process, our team made sure the steel and wood would easily work perfectly together so the framing and running of MEP’s would be executed seamlessly on site. Mission accomplished. We were later told that this home was precision framed in 10 months less than was originally estimated by the builder.

Given the short build season and challenging terrain of this mountain environment, using NA Structures custom, off-site fabricated framing components made perfect sense. Getting enclosed by winter is much less of a race against time than would have been with conventional framing methods.

This 6100 sf home in Colorado was designed to maximize the stunning mountain views. Within the structure is a significant amount of structural steel which was all fabricated in our in-house, AISC certified steel shop. Given the challenging terrain, the fact that the steel was custom fabricated off-site including bolted connections made and nailers already attached resulted in easier erection of the steel on site.

While the design of this beautiful desert home was designed to fit with the famous mid-century style of architecture that has became synonymous with Palm Springs, it was engineered with a very modern approach using energy-efficient systems, sustainable building materials AND NA Structures custom, off-site fabricated framing components.

This 40,000 sf convention centre sits on the side of a mountain in Quebec, Canada. Not only did the topography pose challenges for a custom build but our team received the ‘plans’ on the back of a napkin. In the end, our technical team created the architectural and structural plans and took the project from plans, through the build to completion. In Quebec, NA Structures is also a GC.

This home was designed to honor the incredible views of rolling hills, a pine forest and spring-fed pond while incorporating into the design locally-sourced and innovative materials. An in-house yoga studio with floor to ceiling windows helps to facilitate bringing the beauty of the outdoors in and to extend the peaceful feel of the surrounding countryside, to the indoors.

This 7200 sf home is situated on a small lake in Western Michigan. The structural plans included complex engineering which would have been much more challenging to frame precisely and accurately on-site. With NA Structures systems-based pre-build process and custom, fabricated framing components, our team was able to make a significant difference to the project.

This 6500 sf home on Lake Erie was precision built by a framing team new to using NA Structures. As we offer training to framing crews new to our system before a build PLUS give on-going technical support during the build, crews without experience are ready to go when the first load of the NA Structures components arrive on site.
