A certified steel building is a structure meticulously engineered to withstand substantial wind and snow loads. If you're a metal building owner, it's crucial to obtain the necessary permits and certifications for your steel structures in Nevada. Acquiring a permit from your local building authority serves multiple purposes: it ensures the safety of both the public and property, and it safeguards against potential legal complications down the road. Securing permits is of utmost importance, especially in regions prone to frequent high winds, hailstorms, and heavy snowfall.
Each situation is unique, and the requirements can vary based on the regulations enforced by your local building department. To illustrate, certain regions may exempt smaller structures from the need for building permits, while others may necessitate permits based on the specific anchoring methods employed. Due to the regional disparities, it's advisable to contact your local department for precise information and guidance on the matter.
When you’ve finalized a quote with an official American Carports, Inc. Sales Representative, you’ll need to create a site plan as well for when you go to your local building departments office. Make sure to include the dimensions of the building that you’re expecting to get. Some areas may not require you to get a permit, for example, if your building is below 600 SQ FT, your building department may not require a permit. You’ll need to also provide what kind of foundation the structure will be installed on. American Carports, Inc. does installations on concrete, dirt or asphalt. Lastly, make sure to inform your building department what material will be used for the building. Visit your local township or city’s website to find your building permit application for more details!
After you have all preliminary information, you’ll need to contact your local building department. Depending on the department, the contractor is required to pull the permit but most departments allow the homeowner to pull their own permit. Make sure to pay permit fees. Many contractors typically do not include permit fees in their quotes because building departments calculate these fees in various ways. Some departments base their charges on factors like square footage or a percentage of the overall construction cost. In contrast, others simply establish a fixed permit fee. It's essential to be aware of the full permit cost to ensure it fits within your budget.
As a general practice, most townships typically require the following details from you:
Typically, contractors will furnish you with their details and information about the engineers and engineering plans as part of the submission process.
After working with the local building department, after submitting all requisite information and fulfilling all mandatory fees, you will be eligible to obtain the building permit issued by your local building authority. It is imperative to verify the accuracy and completeness of all details on the permit and associated documents. Furthermore, exercise due diligence in safeguarding these documents, keeping copies securely stored in a designated and accessible location. Be prepared to provide any requested documentation in the event that the building department necessitates an on-site inspection of your construction project.
Feel free to reach out to American Carports, Inc. and ask to connect with your Sales Representative. Share the good news that you've secured the permit. Provide them with the permit documents, and your Sales Rep will pass on the information to the scheduling team in your area.

Thinking of proceeding with your project without the necessary building permit might seem tempting. However, it's not worth the risk. The permitting process is typically neither costly nor time-consuming. Skipping it can lead to negative consequences, including potential demolition of your structure and other frustrations. So, it's best to handle the permit requirements upfront and avoid unnecessary worries.
