Advantages of aircraft hangar construction
Aircraft hangars
Aircraft hangars provide a quick space solution to house and preserve aircraft and aviation equipment optimally. At VALL, we have over 30 years of experience manufacturing aircraft hangars under the strict EN13782 and EN1090 regulations. We offer fast and efficient solutions tailored to each client's requirements.
At VALL, we manufacture and install aircraft hangars, available in minimal time for purchase or rental.
Due to our commitment to quality, safety, and durability, all AeroSpace modular aircraft hangars from VALL comply with the Eurocode structural regulations, even those not required to do so.
What is an aircraft hangar?
An aircraft hangar is a large structure with a roof specifically designed and installed to house aircraft, helicopters, and other aircraft, as well as aviation material. They are open spaces with large access points, suitable for aircraft to enter and exit easily and safely.
Although they can be used for other purposes, the main functions of aircraft hangars are related to aviation: storing aircraft so they can stay in a safe space protected from the sun and elements when not in use, space for assembling, repairing, or maintaining aircraft, or storing aviation material, among others.
Currently, aircraft shelters can have open or closed access and a wide variety of accessories to improve their functionality and comfort, such as lighting, heating, or air conditioning.

Aircraft hangars built under the EN13782 and EN1090 regulations.
At VALL, we build aircraft hangars with steel structures under the strict and rigorous European regulations EN13782 and EN1090. Our team of highly qualified engineers complies with the structural Eurocodes, even in projects where the law does not require it.
![EN 13782](https://vallstructures.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/norma_une_20.jpg)
EN13782 Regulation
The VALL aircraft hangars are prefabricated modular buildings for the aerospace sector. They can be temporarily installed in a location for one or several days or remain in the same spot for years or even decades, depending on the client's needs. As mobile and temporary structures, they must comply with the EN 13782 regulation.
This regulation, active in the EU, sets mandatory guidelines for the design, calculation, manufacturing, and installation phases, as well as for the maintenance, usage, and verification procedures, including the testing and trials of the finished product. At VALL, we comply with it even in locations outside the EU where this obligation does not exist, demonstrating our commitment to quality and safety.
![UNE EN 1090](https://vallstructures.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/SELLO-applus-En1090.png)
EN1090 Regulation
VALL's aircraft hangars have a steel metal structure and therefore must comply with the EN 1090 regulation, which is mandatory for the sale in the EU market of steel and aluminum structures manufactured in workshops or factories. We strictly adhere to this regulation even for aircraft hangars sold or installed outside the EU, out of professional ethics and our commitment to safety and quality.
Compliance with this European regulation ensures the quality, strength, and durability of all components and elements of the aircraft hangar's metal structure, its load-bearing capacity, and its resistance to fatigue and fire.
