Why 8-foot Post Spacing Matters For Your Building

When planning a building, every detail matters—especially when it comes to efficiency and cost. One feature of our buildings is 8-foot post spacing, and here’s why it makes a big difference:

1. Less Excavation Needed

   With fewer posts, there’s less digging required. This means lower excavation costs, especially in rocky sites where digging can get expensive fast.

   
   

2. Fewer Screw Piles Required

   If your foundation includes screw piles, fewer posts mean fewer screw piles. That’s another cost-saving benefit that adds up quickly.

   
   

3. Larger Windows, More Natural Light

   Our 8-foot post spacing easily accommodates larger openings. Want 6-foot-wide windows? No problem. You’ll get the flexibility to design the look and functionality you want without compromises.

   
   

4. Better Insulation, Lower Energy Costs

   Wider post spacing means less thermal bridging in your walls. That allows for more insulation, resulting in better energy efficiency. You'll save on heating and cooling costs and enjoy a more comfortable, controlled environment year-round.
