Traditional Church Buildings

REIDsteel can design and build Church Buildings in many styles. Traditional Church construction will have the nave as the main body of the church. This will be rectangular and tall, with a pointed or vaulted roof. This church will have a sanctuary at one end, around the altar. Often this construction is semicircular. This church may also have transepts, which go across the nave and give the church or cathedral a cross shape.

REIDsteel can also design and construct other features of traditional churches or cathedrals. We can build in your aisles, clerestorey, flying buttresses, perambulatory, spire, lantern, bell tower, entrance porch or Galilee. We can help frame windows and doors in a variety of arches in the round Roman or Norman, pointed, gothic or perpendicular style.

THE EXTERIOR DESIGN   Most styles and tastes are within the scope of steel frames. Our engineers and designers will advise on the visual aspect, and its cost effectiveness.

FRAME STYLE   REIDsteel will design, make and ship the steel frame and roofing (as well as suspended floors, galleries, stairs etc.). Local Masons, glaziers and craftsman will build the walls, windows and doors.
