Saturday is the install day... Just hopping the tempature won't affect the install too much.. Above 100 degrees all the time now days

Here are the pic's

Not really asking about a specific part, just figuring out what is commonly used. I'll grab a few pictures of my main panel in the morning. The panel is for a one man garage/shop @ 1,300sf. Its attached by a common wall (breezeway). I can run power through the wall and not have to trench...

Going to return the wire tomorrow and get 1/0...

So an item like this is what is recommend to pull power off the main panel? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002KGFTXU/?tag=atomicindus08-20

Did you spray on the Ghoshshield or roll it on?

Ok, let's start from the beginning... What is the preferred method of pulling power off the main panel?

............. yea. I got a good deal on it.

Fed off my main 200amp panel. I'm debating on either pulling off the main feed (always hot) or installing two 70amp breakers. I went with two runs of #4 cooper as it showed #4 rated 85amps each. I don't think I will ever use 150amps but it was the only one I could find with 15slots, above...

Is copper a better choice then aluminum? From my reading, I would need 2/0 in aluminum correct?

I'm installing a 150amp subpanel to my new garage. The run is about 125ft, my research shows that I need two #1 copper lines for that long of a run. Does this sound correct?

Installing Ghostshield next weekend, anyone have some tips, tricks, or pic's?

Care to post some pics of your floor?

Thanks, got worried when I was informed the total weight of the roof tile... 18,000 pounds.

That space between the top and bottom chord is designed for AC unit. Question: TCLL = Top Chord Live Load (Yours 20 pounds per sq ft, or psf) Using the above, my sq footage of my roof is 1,550... so 20 psf x 1,550 = 31,000 pounds. Does this mean my roof will support 31,000 pounds?

Could you explain a little more on this: "On the bottom chord, they want 2x put on top of the bottom chord to stabilize and prevent the truss from moving."

Few questions.. could someone explain what Bracing it's asking for? Also, where do I find the weight load for this truss design? Picture below:

Yep, the extra height from top/bottom plates are accounted for.
