    two concrete ?'s

    also, I will be trenching for the gas and electric this week. I am going to hang my furnace from the trusses for now to heat it, and then after its poured make the platform for the furnace. It is out of a house with a crawlspace, so the heat comes out the bottom of the furnace. I know it will...

    two concrete ?'s

    I'm hoping you meant 2500..otherwise it'll never get poured. Seems like I've heard about 2.50 a square foot. Does that sound reasonable?

    two concrete ?'s

    I'm sorry...Its not actual styrofoam...it is the foam sheets you mentioned. My parents have a place up north and we ended up taking it up there and insulating around some of the crawlspace with it. I was going to get some 1.5" or 2" foam for around the perimeter of the floor. the barn is...

    two concrete ?'s

    #1, I'm located in mid-michigan and just finished the shell of my 24x32 barn. If I was to heat the inside of the barn to get the frost out of the ground, and finish bringing in the sand i need, would it be all right to pour the concrete floor as long as I kept it above freezing in the barn? #2...

    Insulation

    I am building my 24wx32lx12h pole barn and used shingles on the roof and vinyl siding on the outside to match the house. I have been debating on which type of interior matieral to use on the walls. I really like the looks and light reflection of some of the pvc panels that look like the metal...

    I-Beam Lift

    If someone is thinking about buying this beam/lift, I could haul it fairly cheap if it falls close to my route. I will have an empty 27'-14000lb gooseneck headed from mid-michigan to Kent Ct. sometime in the next couple a weeks. The route isn't finalized, but if its something someone is...

    Floor protection against snowmobile?

    When I bought my place the garage floor was already a mess so I didn't worry about it but even the studs will scratch the floor pretty bad..especially if you accidently spin the track. I have 1/8" deep grooves or scratches in one area where my buddy tried to ride my sled out of the garage...

    pole barn roof and walls?

    I'm in the process of buiding a pole barn now. It is very easy to use siding and shingles. Like the others have said trusses need to be 2' oc, attach 1/2" osb or plywood and your ready to start roofing. For the sides, we run 2x4 or 2x6 perlins around the perimiter, just like you would for...

    Pics needed

    Has anyone finished the inside of their garage or barn w/ the silver backed styrofoam. I have some and have thought about using it but not sure how it would look or reflect light. I was going to run plywood aroung the lower 4 foot for durability and thought about using the foam above that. If...
