Gretna · Sarpy County
Metal buildings in Gretna, NE.
Gretna has grown fast, and the acreage south and west of town is where most of our Sarpy County work goes up. Shops, garages, and buildings for people who bought land to have room.
What people build here
Growth this quick means a lot of buildings go up near a house, often visible from the road. Finish matters more in that situation than it does on open farm ground, and eave detail, gutters, overhangs, and color are worth settling at the design stage rather than after the order.
Popular sizes run 30×40 and 30×50. Tubular stays a sensible frame through about sixty feet on agricultural and utility work, and headered openings go to twenty feet.

Engineering and permitting
Inside Gretna city limits or out in unincorporated Sarpy County changes who reviews your application and what they want to see. Worth knowing which you’re in before you settle on a design.
Anything regularly occupied is Risk Category II wherever it sits, and needs engineering designed to that standard. Agricultural and utility structures are treated differently in most of the rural counties around Omaha.
Snow load is the Nebraska variable that moves the engineering most. We run the ASCE 7 hazard tool against your actual project address rather than a county average.
