MBMI Steel Buildings Completes Custom Strip Mall in Georgia, Showcasing Modern Metal Building Design Capabilities

Pooler, GA project features innovative mansard roof design with integrated brick and glass facades

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. , Sept. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- MBMI Steel Buildings, a leading custom metal building manufacturer, has completed a distinctive 12,388-square-foot strip mall in Pooler, Georgia, demonstrating how modern metal building technology can seamlessly integrate with traditional retail architecture.

The 76' x 163' commercial project features a sophisticated design that combines the structural efficiency of steel construction with aesthetic elements typically associated with conventional building methods. The facility incorporates custom mansard roofing with a 5:12 pitch and integrates brick and glass front facades, creating a retail space that challenges traditional perceptions of metal buildings.

"This project shows how metal buildings have evolved far beyond basic warehouse structures," said Burt Strompf, Designer for MBMI Steel Buildings. "Our in-house engineering team worked closely with the client to create a building that meets both functional and aesthetic requirements while delivering the speed and cost advantages of steel construction."

The Pooler project required specialized engineering to accommodate the mansard roof design while maintaining the structural integrity and efficiency that metal buildings are known for. MBMI's team of engineers, detailers, draftsmen and estimators collaborated to ensure the custom features integrated seamlessly with the steel framework.

"MBMI made this process a breeze," said Yogi Patel, the project owner. "Joe walked me through every step of the engineering and fabrication process. The building arrived on time, went up smoothly, and turned out exactly as I hoped. I'm so excited to see this project finally coming to life!"

Located in Pooler, Georgia, a rapidly growing commercial area near Savannah, the strip mall represents the type of fast-track commercial development that metal buildings enable. The pre-engineered approach allows for faster construction timelines compared to traditional building methods, helping bring retail space to market more quickly.

MBMI Steel Buildings has been serving the construction industry since 2002, specializing in custom agricultural, commercial, and industrial metal building projects. The company maintains an in-house engineering department and focuses on complex projects that require specialized design solutions.
