We used to sell and install hoop buildings. The buildings are pretty good but it does depend on location, as far as wind. The single tube buildings, usually under 36' wide, I would not put up in an open area. They need to be installed where there is wind breaks, most are rated 80-90 wind load but only gusts, and 50-55 sustained. The truss style buildings are rated much higher for both snow and wind and are way better buildings. Compare the steel before you buy there are alot of junk buildings(light steel that relie on cables for strength. The best buildings are Pro-Tec made by Sioux Steel Co, the steel quality is much higher. Any other questions pm me or post. Alot of ways to save $ depending on installation and use, not that hard to install but alot of tricks to make it easier.
