30x50 Red Iron Steel Building Kit
The 30x50 is one of the most requested steel building sizes in the market, commonly used for three-car garages with
workshop space, small barndominiums, equipment storage for hobby farms, and small contractor shops. At 1,500 square
feet, it delivers a versatile footprint that serves a wide range of residential, agricultural, and commercial applications.
Buyers who need more depth than a 30x40 but do not want to jump to a 40-foot width. This size is popular with rural
property owners who need covered equipment storage and a dedicated work area in the same building. Barndominium
buyers also gravitate to this size for starter shell projects.
Specifications
Every FrameCore 30x50 steel building kit is a red iron, bolt-together structure engineered from commercial-grade steel
I-beams. The kit is custom manufactured to meet the wind, snow, and seismic load requirements for your specific job site
location.
Square Footage:1,500 sq ft
Standard Eave Heights:10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 20 feet. A minimum two-foot clearance is required between the eave
height and the top of the tallest door.
Roof Pitch Options:Standard 2:12 pitch included. Options available from 1:12 through 6:12 depending on application and
local code requirements.
Wind and Snow Load Ratings:Every kit is engineered to meet ASCE 7-16 standards for wind, snow, and seismic loads
specific to the building site. PE-stamped engineering drawings included.
What Is Included:Primary steel framing (columns and rafters), secondary framing (purlins and girts), PBR metal roof
panels, PBR metal wall panels, all fasteners and sealants, and PE-stamped engineering drawings. Door and window
openings, insulation, and foundation are configured separately based on the project.
Pricing Context
Market pricing for a 30x50 steel building kit ranges from $22,000 to $35,000 depending on location, engineering
requirements, and customization. That translates to approximately $14 to $23 per square foot for the kit package. Final
project costs including foundation, erection, doors, and insulation will be higher and vary by region.

Dealer Profit Breakdown

8
Commission per sale:$1,100 to $1,750 depending on the final kit price. On a mid-range 30x50 at $28,500, the dealer
commission is $1,425.
Monthly earning potential:A dealer selling just two 30x50 buildings per month earns approximately $2,850 in
commission income — before project management fees, foundation coordination, referral income, or any upsell on
accessories and options.
Annual earning potential:At two buildings per month, that is $34,200 per year in commission on this single building size
alone. Most FrameCore dealers sell across multiple sizes, which means actual annual commission income is significantly
higher.
These numbers are based on kit sales commission only. Dealers who also coordinate erection, foundation, and project
management earn additional income on those services. The building kit commission is the starting point, not the ceiling.
