    ADAPT TO EXTREME CONDITIONS

    From design to installation, every decision in an oil & gas project impacts safety, efficiency, and long-term performance. Beyond durability, you’re also balancing tight budgets, evolving safety regulations, and high-stakes timelines. A single delay or miscalculation can have costly consequences.

    That’s why leading architects, contractors, and business owners are turning to innovative building solutions that offer durability without delays. Legacy structures are engineered for the realities of your job site—built to withstand extreme conditions, streamline construction, and deliver lasting value.

    HOW LEGACY FABRIC CAN HELP

    Faster Construction, Minimal Downtime

    Traditional building methods often mean long lead times, material shortages, and disruptive on-site construction. Legacy’s pre-engineered fabric structures arrive ready for rapid installation, cutting construction time. With fewer materials and no need for interior support columns, we simplify logistics—so you can get operations up and running faster without sacrificing quality.

    Strength Built for Harsh Environments

    From scorching heat to subzero temperatures, oil & gas structures face some of the toughest conditions in any industry. Our high-tensile fabric is UV-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and designed to perform in extreme environments. Paired with a durable steel frame, Legacy buildings provide long-term reliability without the risk of rust, rot, or degradation—ensuring your investment lasts for decades.

    Besides sheltering key processing equipment and processes, our buildings can serve multiple additional activities:

    • Vehicle and equipment storage
    • Maintenance shops
    • Warehouses
    • Mechanical facilities 
    • Treatment applications
    • Climate-controlled indoor applications
    • Oil storage facilities with secondary containment options
    • Gas storage structures with enhanced ventilation systems
    • Temporary or permanent oil and gas storage solutions
    Fabric buildings for the oil and gas industry

    Flexible, Customizable Designs

    No two projects are alike, which is why our structures are designed for maximum adaptability. Need a large clear-span interior for equipment storage? Or a ventilated enclosure for hazardous material handling? Legacy buildings can be customized with features like insulation, ventilation systems, lighting, and specialty doors to meet the unique demands of your site—without the cost and complexity of traditional construction.

    Minimal Maintenance Tension Fabric Buildings

    Regulatory Compliance & Safety Assurance

    Staying compliant with OSHA, EPA, and local building codes can be a challenge, but our structures are engineered with safety and compliance in mind. Whether you need a fire-retardant fabric, natural daylighting to reduce energy consumption, or advanced ventilation systems to manage hazardous materials, we’ll ensure your building meets all requirements—giving you peace of mind from day one.

    Lower Lifetime Costs, Maximum ROI

    Unlike traditional steel or wood structures, Legacy fabric buildings require less maintenance, reducing the need for costly repairs and corrosion treatments. The energy-efficient design also reduces heating and cooling costs, while the modular construction allows for easy expansions as your needs grow. That means a lower total cost of ownership and a higher return on investment over time.

    Testimonials

    We had a great working relationship with Legacy

    A lot of the temporary structures in the region are fabric structures, so we mainly looked at those types of buildings. Due to the overall project timeline, the buildings had to be constructed in the dead of winter. We had a great working relationship with Legacy throughout the entire process. They supply a very high quality fabric structure, and we're certainly pleased with what we've seen from the buildings thus far.

    John Lehman BBE Hydro Constructors

    We were very impressed by their engineering team.

    By today's standards, the buildings we're designing are of world-class caliber in the U.S. and Canada. Legacy offered several features that put them at the top of the list. They are unique among fabric buildings in that they build on a rigid steel frame. Everything looked good, from the eave and ridge ventilation system to the method for installing fabric panels. Combined with material delivery times and the time to construct, Legacy seemed like the perfect choice for our application. "The whole design is very efficient for our operations. Flexibility is key, especially when the building is a 'first of its kind' for the industry. We had one design change after the whole plan was in place, to widen our trapeze in the structure that supports the conveyor, and Legacy was able to make that change without any problem. The conveyor system fits and operates just as it was designed. "Legacy knew our schedule and saved us over 30 days of downtime. They stood the frames for the entire fabric structure in a single day, and everything - conveyors, electrical, fabric - was completed within five weeks of them coming to the site. It was a Herculean effort on Legacy's part. It was fantastic. They have a very passionate team, from top to bottom. In all respects, from design to pricing to production, Legacy is one of the best building contractors I've ever worked with. I look forward to working with them again.

    It was a seamless process.

    The crew was so professional, polite, on time and hardworking. It was amazing to see how much they got done. There were weather delays and they still finished early. It was a seamless process, and a pleasure to work with this group.
