Well it is a little late to start a thread following the construction of my new garage but better late than never so they say. Anyway, here are some pics and some details.
16' x 42'. 16 wide was my limit as I needed to be 10 feet from the lot line, I am close.
11 foot walls
13 foot ceiling at the peak with scissor trusses for room for a four post lift.
2x6 walls
R19 insulation in the walls
R30 in the ceiling.
5 inch thick concrete
two ceiling fans
220 -50 amp service
70,000 BTU sterling heater
No A/C
Sanded plywood on walls up to 7 feet for durability.
Drywall the rest of the way and on the ceiling
6-8' 4 bulb T8 lights in main garage area.
2 - 4' T5 bulb T5 light fixtures over the workshop
I intend to epoxy coat the floor when I decide who's product to use.
My goal was to be able to get three cars in this space with some room to spare as a workshop. So the plan is to add a four post lift, so one car on a lift and two on the ground. I should note, I have not coated the floor yet and I still have some work on the paint. The paint is kind of a story. I was trying to at least be a little different with the standard grey and red. I have a sister who wants to paint some cars on the wall for me so i am not done with paint yet. Here are some pics.
