This is what I'm looking at buying. Precut Pro-Rib® Steel Panel at Menards https://www.menards.com/main/p-1530858508986.htm

Built a stick framed garage, 24x32. OSB sheathing, house wrap. Was going to vinyl side it but I've since decided to go with metal barn siding. My question is, do I need furring strips on top of my house wrap? Or will the OSB and studs hold it enough? The garage will be insulated, heated/cooled...

Ended up with 3 jack studs, should be fine. Now it's time to get that big header set and throw some trusses up.

I did the treated plate to cover the full opening of the blocks. It is redundant, but yes I built the walls then lifted into place. Yes, I have the LVL already, I think I'm going to end with 3 Jack's on each side

Yes the plans call for an LVL. Only thing I can think is for snow loads, but yes seems like overkill.

Ok, thats what I thought, but the reaction lbs is what threw me off. I guess i dont know how to figure that out from my engineered truss papers.

Arent those pages for headers that are on the truss end of a building, not the gable end like mine? If that doesnt matter, it says 3" BEARING AT BOTH ENDS AND 7½" AT INTERMEDIATE. That doesnt help me.

Floor looks awesome, might look into this for mine

Have you looked into a pro doing it? Might only be a bit more.

Framing is 2x4s. What tables are you talking about? And i didnt plan on just a single jack, i just want to make sure 2 is enough. Door is on the gable end. No portal framing required. Thank you, i did not know this, but the wing walls are 4' with no doors, so portal framing is not required...

Approved plans do not go into that much detail as far as 2x4/2x6 or sandwiching lvl. Its a kit from Menards if that matters.

Hi everyone, first post here, finally registered after lurking for a while. I'm currently building a 24x32 garage, 9' total wall height with a 1 course block wall on concrete pad. I'm a little stuck and can't find what's right correct and want some opinions on what to do with my garage door...
