Metal Building Foundation Design

(OP)
Looking for Butler Manufacturing Company Foundation Design and Construction Manual, by Buettner, Fisher, and Manske.

Does anyone know of where I can obtain a copy?

RE: Metal Building Foundation Design

(OP)
Tried at Butler.  No response.  Couldn't find it on the web site.  Any other sources?

RE: Metal Building Foundation Design

I got a copy of it 3 years ago and had to call Butler and talk to the corporate office.  I don't have the number I called anymore.  The office address on the back cover is as follows:

Butler Manufacturing Company
BMA Tower - Penn Valley Park
kansas City, Missouri 64141

I would try to get a phone number for this address and talk to them.

RE: Metal Building Foundation Design

I made similar inquiries and have a phone number in salt lake city:

Mr. Rick Strong
435.654.3988
cell 801.201.2731

I have not made the call yet, but when and if you do, double check that the manual you want is the one you are going to buy.  I was quoted a very low cost of $15 which I questioned immediately.

RE: Metal Building Foundation Design

Like I said earlier, they sent it to me for free.  Maybe more people are asking for it and decided to charge for shipping.
