Some of you may have caught this in the welcome center, I thought it be good to move my build thread over to the main discussion. I am in the planning and development stages of building my shop. Currently I have chosen the plans for a 36'x28' two level 2.5 car garage. Due to rediculous easments chopping up my acre I am unfortunately limited to the location i can build. Due to a drainage creek that goes diagonally through my property (very beautiful to look at, a pain to do anything with) anywhere I build will require extensive dirt work and immense planning. That being said this will be a CASH rolled, slow project, but hey a paid for shop is well worth the wait. Lucky for us we do not live within any incorporated city limits and are only required to get an initial build site inspection by the county to ensure build lines do not overlap easements. I will be completing (with the help my friends and family) most of the work past the concrete. So without Further delay here are some pix of my growing plan. My brother is a professional excavation estimator so he will be venturing over here in the next week or so to start conjuring up the required modification to the landscape and grade. We have decided to alleviate the cost of a pump truck it makes more sense to build the road out to the sight before calling the concrete contractor, since I have to build a road anyway.
here are some pictures of my property survey the proposed building site is in the top left corner of the property and is drawn according to scale, along with the gravel driveway that runs along the property line and the building easement (only because its specified as 10 feet wide) the picture that shows the driveway cutting across the yard is not to scale, just for illustration, and of course the culverts are not to scale either.
