Marana sits at about 2,000 feet northwest of Tucson in Pima County, along the Santa Cruz corridor where cotton and pecan farming still work alongside one of the region’s fastest-growing residential and commercial corridors. Pima County runs a newer code cycle than much of Arizona, having adopted the 2024 codes effective January 2026 — worth confirming before you design.
Best fit in Marana: tubular steel for ag-exempt farm and equipment buildings on county-zoned ground; cold formed steel for permitted shops, garages, and home shells; and red iron for commercial spans past 60′. See the full system comparison.
Which code applies to a building in Marana?
Depends on your parcel — the Town of Marana permits within its limits, and unincorporated land falls to Pima County, which adopted the 2024 codes effective January 2026. We verify the current requirements before design.
