Toy Box and Shop Finally!!

[Kjurinek]

Started this thread 2 months ago not thinking it would take this long for permit. The project is well underway!!

30' x 44' X 10' with scissors trusses. Radiant heat floor, AC (Panasonic ductless unit)

 

[Kjurinek]

Wanted this garage when we moved in 12 years ago, unfortunately set backs and septic field caused the project to stall.

After review with the county it was determined that if we add an aeration tank to our septic system we would have enough space to construct garage. See pics below.

We have 1.1 acre lot and already have an attached 3 car garage. I only want 3 vehicles in there, no bikes, no snowmobiles, no 4 wheelers or motorcycles! And I dont want any of our 3 boats in the driveway!

 

[Kjurinek]

Here's the area of our lot that will be home to the Toy Box. Its right on the lot line so takes up minimal back yard space. Unfortunately a nice pine has to go with a couple Box Elder Trees.

 

[Kjurinek]

Trees removed including stumps.

 

[Kjurinek]

Last week, cleared area for driveway and determine true grade for slab.

 

[Kjurinek]

Framing took place last week Friday with an inspection of framing and plan.

 

[Kjurinek]

Radiant tubing, insulation and vapor barrier ready to go and then installed prior to pour. 5 circuits in all.

 

[Kjurinek]

And today the concrete pour! Hand troweled joints, power troweled and garage door water stops. Doors will be (1) 16' x 9' high and (1) 9' x 9' high.

Nice build thus far. Thanks for sharing pics.

Now would be good time to share your Location. Update GJ Profile with Country / State / City.

 

[Kjurinek]

Thought I did that already. Will try again. Lumber set or delivery this Thurs.

Custom trusses in production and hoping for 10 days or less delivery.

 

[Kjurinek]

20" high concrete stem wall was to be stepped down to match grade but we decided to do it all the way around the building. its on a 12" wide x 14" deep thickened edge. Lumber showed up on Thursday and carpenters got a good start on Saturday.

Seems like my Toy Box is getting smaller!!

I think you're going to love it when it's done.

Any reason you decided to go with 2 different garage door heights ?

I think you're going to love it when it's done.

Any reason you decided to go with 2 different garage door heights ?

I think they are same height just different widths.

 

[Kjurinek]

I changed them to the same height - 9'

Have a 28 Skater to get in with 300x outboards!

 

[NUTTSGT]

I changed them to the same height - 9'

I think that was probably a good idea, I think it may have looked odd, two different door height configured that close together.

 

[Kjurinek]

I agree. Plus wanted the height just in case. May need to store all the boats here someday.

Have walls completely framed laying inside on concrete, need to stand them up and fasten. Pics to follow tomorrow.

Bad news on windows, aren't shipping until 10/10! Not good, was hoping to have walls up and siding started while waiting on trusses (shipping 10/8)

 

[Kjurinek]

Wall Framing - DONE! Sheathing - DONE! Tyvek - DONE!

Unfortunately trusses are delayed until 10/8 and windows until 10/10 so now we wait to finish exterior.

 

[Kjurinek]

21 Trusses plus gable ends. Actually added and extra truss which will be reinforced with 2 x 12s and will be a lifting trolley beam.

 

[1/2 Cup]

I am looking forward to following your progress!

 

[bigbadjim]

Trusses arrived and were installed today with a "little" help!!

And today the concrete pour! Hand troweled joints, power troweled and garage door water stops. Doors will be (1) 16' x 9' high and (1) 9' x 9' high.

Wow, nice slab! Not to many guys around here use truss screeds for garage slabs.

 

[Kjurinek]

They did a nice job. Using it for the driveway too! Should have roof complete by Sat night. Then windows, doors and siding.

 

[Hoops.]

How did you build/use the trusses over the garage doors? Did you use two 30' end trusses? Curious since the end truss would be unsupported over the larger garage door. I am building a similar garage, but a 32x40 plus a 2' bump out for the large garage door.

 

[Kjurinek]

One full (30') gable end and a smaller (20') gable end in front of it for bump out. We backed the 30' with another truss for support.

I'll try to take pictures of detail tomorrow before they sheet the roof.

 

[NUTTSGT]

A few delays and you're getting back on track.

 

[Kjurinek]

Half the roof is done with sheeting, tar paper and the rain moved in. Hope to get it shingled tomorrow. Garage doors are at store as are windows. I'm painting the siding before they install it to have one good cot to start.

Will post pics tomorrow, it's coming along well.

 

[Kjurinek]

Heres what we did in the front. Im not sure if i will just add some 2x4s so they can box in the space between the gable ends for drywall or if I'll trim the back gable to match trusses.

 

[Kjurinek]

Hoops

Did that help?

 

[Kjurinek]

Garage doors arrived as did windows and entry door. Shooting for Sat install.
Might store this in the garage once in while while performing service.

 

[Kjurinek]

Roof is complete as are soffits. Trim is complete for siding and we expect to have siding compelte this weekend. Installed the 16' x 9' garage door and will start working on the 9' x 9' garage door.

Hoping for occupancy inspection early next week!!! Then driveway pour!! Cutting it close with the weather.

 

[TxJohn]

Very nice!

 

[saceone]

Nice slab and great build so far!

Hi KK

You said it was getting smaller in your post # 11, wait till you get a few machines - bench's etc as it gets small real quick

Sure looks good from the outside

You might have already done this but I cut out scale size cardboard shapes of what you are going to put in the shop, then you can move them around to the look you like and the most room

One of he first things I did! I have a lift and three boats. Not all stored here but will work on them at times.

 

[Kjurinek]

Siding is complete and they are finishing the garage door installation. Concrete guys did final grading and hope to pour Monday. We have rain forecasted the next few days.

The garage matches my house exactly. Will post a side by side when doors are complete and driveway is poured next week. THIS IS AWESOME!!

 

[sunsation288]

[Kjurinek]
