Ohio Department of Transportation Chooses Post Frame

There is big news in the world of post frame: The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is now mandating the use of post frame for all of their buildings. ODOT officials were made aware of the cost benefits of post frame in both construction and maintenance last April, when the National Frame Building Association (NFBA) spoke to them about post frame's energy efficiencies and foundation alternatives (i.e., poured concrete, cast-in-place), among other things. Because post frame is ideal for constructing and maintaining storage and maintenance facilities, including salt garages, it's no surprise cost-conscious state governments are considering such mandates.
