My New Arizona Shop

[moparpollack]

Started a new shop 25'x40' here's the basic outline.

Luckily the rock bed is shallow and the dig was done quickly.

 

[moparpollack]

The stem wall foundation was poured and ready for forming.

 

[moparpollack]

Formed up and ready to pour.

 

[moparpollack]

All poured ready to take the forms off.

 

[moparpollack]

Forms off and gravel leveled for the foundation pour.

 

[moparpollack]

Poured waiting to cure.

The framers came on Saturday and built the walls. The 16' walls were heavier than expected.

 

[moparpollack]

Sunday morning and the crane showed up to get the walls up.

 

[moparpollack]

I asked my builder how they planned to get the trusses up. The crane made short work of the overhead work.

 

[moparpollack]

The roof was sheeted and trimmed. This was about hour twelve of the day, the crew was on point today. Time to enjoy a cold one!

 

[moparpollack]

Had a work trip and came home to the building being insulated and chicken wired. A view from within so I can get the vertical hung garage door and clear a two post lift.

Well that's the pictures for now, will update as the progress happens. The garage door is ordered and the I am trying to figure out how much concrete to order. Hopefully I will have an update soon.

Nice build. Where are you in AZ?

Looking great! I'm also going to have a free standing garage built - about the same size (26x40) but in Phoenix I can't be over 15' tall, so I'm jealous as to your ceiling height!
What is your garage door size? I'm going with a 20' wide and 10' tall.

 

[moparpollack]

I'm up in North Phoenix so I am under Maricopa County rules. The garage door is going to be 18' wide and 8' tall as i only have classic cars. Additionally the door will go up vertically so I can put a lift inside.
