Above 1200 Sq/FT 45x30 W/Dual Lean-to's

[tycoon]

Hello all,

Long time creeper here, and finally am able to post. Started out thinking of 30x30, but everyone says go bigger... so i bumped it out 15 extra feet, and added to Lean-tos. So final dimensions are 30x45x14, 1x 30x12x11 Lean-to, 1 45x12x11 Lean-to, and a 12x16 office on end of lean-to. The main building also has a scissor truss. I will add a few pics to bring my build up to date. Currently the post frame building is complete, and the interior is insulated, and sheeted with corrugated metal. I have routed the power out to the building, but have not hooked it up. Next on the list will be pad prep, and sloping/grading around the perimeter, then electrical routing, will be using EMT, and surface mounted boxes.

So this brings us up to date, funny how we usually get about 10 days of rain per Summer where i live in southeast BC, on the Montana Border, and it decided to rain throughout the entire build, to say it way a mess would be an understatement.
I Just found out my overhead door should be here in the next couple weeks, so am exited about that, as it was ordered back in November......
I will do my best to keep the build up to date, and Im sure I will have plenty of questions throughout the next few months!

Thanks for looking!

I like the color combination you chose, anything special going on inside when finished ? Really is a handsome looking building.

Nice looking building. Can’t wait to see what’s going to happen inside.
What’s the bump out going to be under the right side lean to?

Great scenery in the background too.

The building looks great , the views from your property are stunning.

I’ll second that, building is very nice and surrounding area beautiful! I’m jealous...

Captain14 he said that was gonna be an office

Beautiful country! Shop is looking really good

Thanks all, yes I am definitely blessed to live in a beautiful place.

The bump out will be an office, and reloading room.
I have a ledger board installed on the back end of the shop for a mezzanine, and am currently trying to design its build, and the stairs. It will have low overhead on the sides, but will be more than sufficient a few ft off the walls due to the scissor truss. I need to finalize my design soon so I can incorporate it into my pad prep/design. (Any thoughts?)
One thing that I regret was not going 36' wide, and having 2 overhead doors.....

Wow, that’s a beautiful looking building, but the scenery is just stunning.
Great work mate, interested to see how you go.

You had me at "reloading room". Great looking building and surroundings. I look forward to seeing how it comes together.

Well, Got rid of the mud issue........Site has been levelled and graded, Garage door installed, and prepping for the slab on Wednesday!

 

[RyanE]

Wow, how did I miss this?

Welcome neighbour! I'm farther north than you, but grew up down your way and still know quite a few folks in South Country.

Nice shop! Did you build it yourself or hire out?

 

[tycoon]

This was an Integrity build

Looks great! What is up with the offset J channel above the right hand side of the garage door?

 

[tycoon]

J channel was for a different style door opener.

Got the Slab poured, literally had about a wheel barrow worth of cement excess. Got the expansion joints cut, and ran my first few circuits. Finally can start to move in....

 

[tycoon]

Got expansion joints filled, and slab sealed.

Added some love for my Yankee neighbors as I live 2 miles north of the border!

 

[u2slow]

A bigger version of mine! Very nice!

 

[tycoon]

And moving in!

 

[jbrentd]
