Mining and Mineral
Versatile, cost-saving mining buildings designed for remote, rugged operations
Scalable, High-Performance Shelters for Mining Operations
Big Top’s mining buildings provide the industry with cost-effective, rapidly deployable shelter solutions that adapt to evolving site needs. Engineered for extreme environments, our structures shield heavy machinery, workforce accommodations, and processing facilities from wind, dust, snow, and extreme temperatures—keeping operations running efficiently in the most demanding conditions.
Unlike traditional steel or concrete buildings, our clear-span, modular shelters install quickly, require minimal site preparation, and can be relocated as mining sites expand. Whether for equipment storage, mineral processing, or crew accommodations, Big Top’s durable fabric mining buildings deliver unmatched flexibility and long-term reliability.
Built for the Challenges of Mining and Mineral Extraction
Mining operations demand rugged, adaptable infrastructure that can move with the project lifecycle. Big Top’s mining fabric buildings eliminate the need for permanent construction, ensuring maximum flexibility for exploration, extraction, and processing.
- Rapid Deployment in Remote Locations – Installs without concrete foundations, anchoring securely to dirt, gravel, asphalt, or shipping containers
- Portable and Relocatable – Easily transported by crane or disassembled and moved as sites expand
- Weather and UV Protection – Blocks 99.95% of UV rays, prevents equipment damage, and maintains stable interior temperatures 15°F cooler in summer and warmer in winter
- Engineered for Harsh Conditions – Built to withstand high winds, heavy snow loads, and abrasive mining dust
- Energy-Efficient and Cost-Saving – Translucent fabric reduces lighting costs, while IRS classification as equipment may provide tax advantages
