Custom Steel Buildings, Engineered for California Job Sites

California is the third-largest market in our portfolio behind Florida and Texas. The published work stretches from the coast to the valley: Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton in San Diego County took an administration office and a long solar array parking canopy; a North Orange County animal operation ordered seven roof-system and agricultural buildings across Fullerton and Buena Park during 2010 and 2011; and East County San Diego buyers in La Mesa and Alpine picked up solar canopies and a two-car garage. The through-line across the state is seismic. California enforces the California Building Code, which places most of the state in high seismic design categories, and our Delray Beach engineering team scopes each project to the actual job-site loads rather than a statewide assumption.

MBMI Delivers Across California

Four reasons California buyers from San Diego County to the Central Valley stay with MBMI through repeat orders.

CBC

California Seismic Engineering

The California Building Code assigns high seismic design categories across most of the state, layered over local wind and snow loads. We engineer each building to the seismic parameters for your specific address, from a San Diego County coastal site to a Sierra foothill parcel, not a statewide average.

AISC

AISC Documentation Included

Every set of drawings arrives with our manufacturer’s AISC certification letter attached. That is the paperwork a California county reviewer looks for on a commercial or agricultural submittal, and having it in the package up front tends to keep the plan-check moving.

One Team, Quote to Delivery

Your California project is quoted, drawn, stamped, and coordinated by the same in-house group at our Delray Beach office. Nothing gets handed off to a subcontracted drafting shop, so the person who priced your building is the person who answers questions during the build.

40Y

40-Year AkzoNobel Paint

Panels are finished with an AkzoNobel coating carrying a 40-year warranty. It holds up against the fierce UV of an inland California summer, the salt air along the Pacific, and the wide day-to-night temperature swing between the valley floor and the Sierra.

California Steel Building FAQs

Does MBMI ship steel buildings to every county in California?
Yes. MBMI has shipped to twelve California cities so far, from Camp Pendleton in San Diego County up through Fullerton and Buena Park in Orange County and out to Oroville in Butte County. If your California city is not on the list, contact us for a quote; statewide coverage applies across all fifty-eight counties.
How does MBMI engineer steel buildings for California seismic code?
California enforces the California Building Code, which assigns high seismic design categories across most of the state. Our in-house engineers stamp every California building to the seismic and wind loads for the specific job-site address, then ship AISC-certified manufacturing documentation with the drawings so local plan reviewers have what they expect.
Are MBMI drawings ready for California city and county building departments?
Yes. Each California building is engineered to the adopted California Building Code edition for the buyer’s jurisdiction, whether that is a San Diego County office building or an Orange County agricultural roof system. The AISC certification letter ships with the package, which is what commercial and agricultural reviewers look for on submittal.
What kinds of buildings do California customers order from MBMI?
California orders span a wide range. Camp Pendleton took an administration office and a large solar array parking canopy; a North Orange County animal operation bought seven roof-system and agricultural buildings across Fullerton and Buena Park; and East County San Diego buyers in La Mesa and Alpine ordered solar canopies and a two-car garage.
How does freight work for steel buildings delivered to California?
Components ship direct from our manufacturing partner’s facility to your California job site, with no third-party warehouse stops on the way. Interstate 5 runs the length of the coast and Interstate 8 crosses San Diego County east to west. We schedule truck delivery windows with your contractor.
