    Stick Build going up...I got a "STOP' work order

    I live in AACO and did this 3x last year and back in 03. If you are zoned R-A RLD or R-1 then you are correct principal structure does not matter anything else and it is capped at principal structure. What are you zoned? Did you talk to the planning a zoning office or just the permit office...

    Engineered Roof Trusses...is this an overkill?

    I just finished my 24x26 garage in annapolis and I can give you a few tips. If you want more room inside go with a higher pitch and canterleave the over hang that will raise the peak of the roof for more room. I went with a 12/12 with a 1" over hang on both sides...

    New garage build with attic

    New garage build with attic

    I have been looking around here for a while and this site has been great for getting ideals. I am about 80% finished with just siding, hanging the doors and some grading left to do. The garage is 24x26 with a 12/12 pitch roof so it has a 12x26 room upstairs. I did all the work minus concrete...
