Dear Sentry Building Owner,
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for purchasing a SIOUX
STEEL PRO-TEC BUILDING. We believe that it will serve you well for many
years. The framework uses quality certified structural grade steel tubing. All
welded rafter assemblies are powder coated or hot-dipped galvanized to provide
maximum corrosion protection. We believe in providing QUALITY, RELIABILITY,
DURABILITY, VERSATILITY, and COMMITMENT to meet the needs of our
customer. Should you have any questions or comments during or following the
installation, please feel free to call your SIOUX STEEL PRO-TEC BUILDING
dealer or manufacturer. We will be glad to assist you in any way we can.
IMPORTANT
Improper Site Preparation, Assembly and Maintenance may invalidate warranty
and cause unnecessary and costly mistakes.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Foundation for Sentry Building:
In all cases, the soil and foundation must be sufficiently stable and deemed suitable to support the
forces produced by the structure. It is recommended that the customer consult a qualified
engineer to certify the soil conditions and foundation design for their location. Soil and
foundation must be able to withstand forces which meet or exceed the structural forces. Contact
Sioux Steel Company or your dealer for building specific structural forces.
Site Conditions for Sentry Building:
The installation site must be sufficiently level to permit uniform wall assembly on a support
foundation. In all cases, the area surrounding the Sentry Building must provide sufficient
drainage to prevent soil erosion around the foundation. The structure has been designed to meet
90 mph exposure C wind load and 30, 40, and 50 psf (16', 12', & 10' rafter spacing
respectively) ground snow load, for open terrain with obstructions having heights generally less
than 30 feet. This terrain must extend upwind for a distance greater than 2600 feet. The building
must be positioned at least 20 feet away from existing structures with a higher eave to prevent
excessive load from drifting snow.
Contact your insurance agent prior to assembly to insure you are covered in case of
inadvertent accidents that may occur during erection.
NOTE: Sioux Steel Company is not responsible or liable for:
- Any damage or failure that may occur due to incorrect erection of building.
- Any soil analysis or foundation design,
- Substitution of components not specified in the construction manual that lead to
damage or failure.
- Unstable soil conditions or foundation that lead to structure damage or failure.
- Damage caused by leaning sidewalls.
- Any modification of design or structure.
- Any bodily injury that occurs during the assembly of the building or as a
result of modification to the design or improper construction.
- Caustic or corrosive environments that lead to structure deterioration, damage or
failure.
- See warranty in structure manual.
