    30 x 30 pole barn with loft ideas

    No stairs up there yet, but here they are going on the building. I'll look for the truss engineering to give you a better idea. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    We usually put poles in the ground, but it's not always necessary. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Garage slab estimate

    I just poured a 5" floor inside existing frost walls. Compacting, vapor barrier, mesh, and concrete came to ~$4.55/sqft. It took About 21 yds. It's sounds like you're doing a monolithic slab, so a disproportionate amount of concrete is going to be around the edges. It sounds pretty reasonable...

    Just roll it. Get a friend and a long pole. Maybe some beer. And plenty of light! A good primer makes not only the final product better, but application easier as well. FWIW, best bang for the buck around here is Coronado primer. It's one of Benjamin Moore's commercial lines. You can really...

    30 x 30 pole barn with loft ideas

    We're in the process of putting up a structure with 30' span attic trusses. With a 10 pitch roof, we were left with a 16' deep room with 5' knee walls sloped to an 8' ceiling. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Cinder block foundation replacement?

    That's not bad. Parge coat would do it. Tar or Thoroseal if you're worried about water. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Altering trusses to clear a hoist.

    Sorry, tapatalk said it was an hour old... FWIW, this is the quickest that I've ever gotten a snarky response from a "Senior Member" or Moderator. Thanks for that.

    Altering trusses to clear a hoist.

    1. That is stick built, not pole construction. 2. The RIGHT WAY to do this is to build ENGINEERED scissor trusses inside and then cut out the old truss. You could possibly simulate the lateral force of the bottom chord by gusseting the middle "v" but I wouldn't. Do you have the original...

    Your wire is going to need to be much larger. I would expect for the amperage and distance that you would need 6-3 or maybe jump to service wire. Also, plan on using conduit. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
