Update: 30x30 Pole Barn w/ loft

[scutty83]

Have'nt posted any pics in a while so figured I would give an update. I am FINALLY starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I started putting the metal up sometime near the end of September and am just now getting ready to close in the third wall!
The roof was a real challenge being an 8/12 pitch, ended up building a beam near the peak when installing the roof on the non lean to side as I had used the purlins for a standing platform while getting the other side down.
The scaffolding was borrowed from my wifes uncle which has been priceless while bucking the ply wood sheeting for the upstairs an installing the gable end siding.

It's double bubble radiant barrier. Double layer of air bubble material sandwiched between white plastic material and reflective surface on the other. Serves as a dual purpose of keeping the heat outside the building and the moisture from "raining" inside the building when humidity is high.

Very nice build! The size is perfect.

Thanks would've liked it to be a little bigger but left provisions for closing in the lean to side if needed

Well its been a while since I posted pics. Finally got the thing closed in, upstairs floor complete and finished installing the overhead door tracks today. All that is left with the doors is to wind the springs. Ive heard that it is a "fun" job. Will probably find out next week.
