Hybrid Buildings
A hybrid building solution from Butler Manufacturing™ utilizes pre-engineered steel and conventional steel to create a high-performance building of any shape or size.
A Fully Integrated Building Solution
A hybrid building solution from Butler Manufacturing™ integrates three types of primary structural steel (mill beam, three plate members and truss girders or hybrid combinations) with secondary structural members – either Zee purlins, truss purlins or bar joists. Mezzanine or multi-story floor members are also included in a comprehensive structural design.
The Butler® Hybrid building solution integrates any wall material - such as masonry, EIFS, concrete or Butler metal wall systems - with a conventional or Butler structural system to create the desired architectural effect.
Butler’s high-performance, standing-seam metal roof system - the MR-24® roof system - is easily integrated into a hybrid building design. The MR-24 system has a documented life of up to forty-five years and is virtually maintenance-free. The Butler Hybrid building solution can also accommodate building designs that call for a roof solution using metal deck and an appropriate membrane roofing material.

Featured Hybrid Building Project
The Hybrid Wildcard
With Butler Manufacturing, the options extend beyond pre-engineered and conventional steel buildings. More and more buildings are going up using a hybrid construction approach. And with good reason.
Hybrid steel buildings bring specific advantages within a given set of requirements, specifically any time there’s a mixed-use requirement for the building – such as office space with an adjoining warehouse.
