80X100X18 Aircraft Hangar Kit – High-Clearance Hangar

Product Overview

The 80×100×18 Aircraft Hangar Kit is intended for applications requiring substantially increased interior span and storage capacity beyond mid-size hangar configurations. This prefabricated steel building kit is supplied as physical components that assemble into a wide, unobstructed enclosure suitable for larger aircraft layouts and expanded interior zoning.

Best for: Owners requiring wide-span aircraft storage with additional room for circulation, equipment placement, or segmented interior zones.

All items supplied are tangible components delivered as part of the steel building kit.

 

Quick Answers

• Product type: Physical prefabricated steel building kit
• Shipping method: Freight delivery
• Installation included: No
• Drawings included: Yes (printed documentation for permitting/reference)
• Best for: Large clear-span aircraft storage layouts

 

Structural Components & Materials

This kit incorporates a clear-span rigid steel I-beam framing system manufactured using CSA A660 certified structural steel components. Fabrication is completed under CWB certification to CSA W47.1. The enclosure system includes 26-gauge Canadian-made corrugated steel wall and roof panels, along with trim, fasteners, connection plates, clips, angles, bracing, downspouts, and elbows compatible with the framing system.

Printed structural and foundation drawings are included as part of the physical kit documentation for general permitting and reference purposes. These documents provide standard informational reference commonly associated with this product type.

 

Size-Specific Clearance Advantage

The 80-foot clear-span width significantly increases lateral clearance, allowing aircraft to be positioned with ample spacing around wings and support equipment. The 100-foot building depth enables nose-to-tail placement, dual aircraft layouts, or separation between aircraft storage and equipment zones. The 18-foot wall height supports higher tail profiles and vertical clearance requirements common in larger hangar layouts.

This size introduces a major step up in usable interior volume compared to mid-range hangar sizes.

 

How This Hangar Size Fits Into a Complete Hangar Lineup

The 80×100 configuration represents a transition from mid-scale hangar layouts into large-format clear-span aircraft storage. It is commonly selected when additional aircraft spacing, circulation paths, or interior zoning are required beyond what 60- or 80-foot-long hangars provide.

Compared to a 60×80 aircraft hangar, the 80×100 configuration prioritizes expanded interior capacity and layout flexibility over compact footprint efficiency.

For projects requiring even broader layouts or multiple aircraft separation, larger hangar configurations may be evaluated.

 

Why Choose 80×100 Over Smaller Hangar Sizes

• Substantially increased clear-span width
• Extended depth for multi-zone interior layouts
• Improved circulation around stored aircraft
• Greater flexibility for equipment and support storage

 

When Not to Choose This Size

This size may not be suitable where site constraints limit overall building footprint or where compact single-aircraft storage is sufficient. Buyers seeking minimal enclosure volume may prefer smaller hangar configurations.

 

Design Trade-Offs and Layout Priorities

This configuration prioritizes interior openness and storage flexibility over compact enclosure efficiency. Layouts favor wider aircraft spacing, circulation paths, and interior segmentation rather than tightly constrained storage.

 

Design Consideration Note

This size is commonly selected in projects where wide aircraft clearance and interior zoning flexibility are prioritized over reduced building footprint.

Canadian Performance Summary

This hangar configuration provides a large clear-span enclosed footprint suitable for Canadian climate conditions while supporting expanded aircraft storage and interior layout flexibility. The increased width and depth allow broader circulation and zoning options without transitioning into multi-bay commercial hangar scales.
This size is frequently selected where wide aircraft clearance and layout adaptability are prioritized over compact enclosure efficiency.
