McClellan Park Industrial Trusses + Adjacent Production Housing
McClellan is built on the former McClellan Air Force Base — now McClellan Park, an 8.5 million square foot industrial, hangar, and warehouse business park that anchors the area's commercial truss demand. The work runs 40 to 80+ foot clear-span engineered trusses for warehouse retrofits, hangar conversions, and tilt-up commercial infill alongside the residential construction in the surrounding neighborhoods.
Sacramento County Building Permits & Inspection at (916) 875-5296 handles permits for unincorporated McClellan. Commercial submittals trigger additional review for occupancy classification, fire-flow, and structural elements — all standard items our engineering correspondence supports. The Watt Avenue and I-80 logistics corridor adjacent to McClellan Park drives steady distribution-warehouse construction volume.

"McClellan is where the long-span commercial work lives. Hangar conversions, warehouse roof retrofits, tilt-up infill in the business park — these are 40 to 80-foot spans, sometimes longer. We engineer the girder packages, we coordinate with the steel fabricators, and we deliver to a brownfield site that's literally next door to our plant."

Standard production lead time is 3–4 weeks from approved engineering, with rush capability at 10–14 days when the schedule demands it.
03 Which Sacramento County office issues permits for McClellan truss work?
McClellan falls under unincorporated Sacramento County, so permits go through Sacramento County Building Permits & Inspection Division at (916) 875-5296 — not the incorporated city offices used by neighboring towns. County plan-check typically runs longer than city plan-check, and we build that into every quote. Our stamped truss packages are formatted to clear Sacramento County review on the first submission.

We supply the full range — common roof trusses (gable, hip, scissor, vaulted), floor trusses (for both standard residential and podium-construction multi-family), girder trusses, and long-span profiles for ag and commercial work. Our engineering team stamps every package to the code path applicable in McClellan (CA Title 24, with city-specific amendments as needed).

McClellan is a commercial / industrial market for us — warehouse, hangar, and distribution-center truss work along McClellan Park / McClellan Business Park and McClellan Air Park (aviation tenants). We engineer 40-80'+ long-span profiles, hangar girders for the aviation footprint, and tilt-up infill packages. Former-base brownfield-to-commercial redevelopment drives most of the pipeline. Permits through Sacramento County Building Permits & Inspection Division; engineering stamped to commercial code expectations.
