Had some chitty weather today; but got another section standing up :ugh2:

After I stand up a tird one; I’ll beef it up some & add more support :happydance:

I could really use a diagram to understand what the finished product is going to look like.

:rock::rock:

whatchu build'n duude?

A garage; so I won’t have to lay on the ground :icon17:

I drew up some plans; got them around here somewhere :ugh2:

FORD vs FERRARI. One of the best movies I have seen in a long time!!! :tup::tup:

Check on the back of the bar napkin. :tiphat:

There’s a thousand ways to skin a cat and there’s no doubt in my mind what you are doing will work. You don’t strike me as a dude that halfasses things. I just can’t picture the final product.

I so want to see it but the wifey sad I’d have to go alone.

I’m kinda building as I go; 16’ wide, 12’ tall & either 24-32’ deep....gonna keep it above ground & secure solid with concrete,rebar,etc...flat roof with slightly pitched away from house for now.
Later will add some trusses & tie into house.
But for now will be a standalone.
1 entrance door & 1 garage door. :ugh2:

:ugh2::ugh2::ugh2::ugh2:

i like it duuude...

Cool. I have a degree in structural engineering if you need to pass anything by me.

It’s gonna be framed out like a pole-barn/house :tiphat:
Those 6x6’s & 2x12’s aren’t no joke :eek:
I’m drilling & bolting everything together with 1/2” & 5/8” carriage bolts :tup:
I don’t like notching out the 6x’s.....I’d rather sandwich them with 2x12’s & bolt them & when another 2x12 intersects; the hole drill placement is a different pattern,,,so they don’t touch :ugh2:

just be strong while you're building it duuude.

:iagree:

Huggies and kissies to you too.

A little late for load calcs. :icon17:

:iagree:

Dirt, wood, or concrete floor?

Started on-line Christmas shopping. :eek: One for the wifey, two for me, one for the wifey, two for me. :rofl2: The best way to sneak stuff into the house. She will think it's all for her. :tup:

Will do; gonna osb all over when done & vinyl the sides/tar paper & shingle the roof :eek:
Still contemplating the 2x’s of perlines & weather I’m going 16 or 24” centers....as the 6x6’s are 8’ on center & 2x12’s will be doubled across & around the top & bottom.
So it shouldn’t blow over :ugh2:
There will be a 16’ span across the doubled 2x12’s....so any input on perlines,joist hangers,etc... will be appreciated :hello:

That’s nothing; had a neighbor ax me if I had a building permit :wtf2:

I showed them this & they nodded :icon17: :rofl2:

Night Folks; I’m going to bed early :tiphat:
Big day tomorrow :happydance:

:icon17:

:eek::eek::eek::eek:

Building permit? What's that?

Onanism

It is a good video.... Enjoy

:tup::driving:

:ugh:

:iagree:

:hello: Morning Folks

I know my terminology of the components are probably wrong :confused:
But I’m gonna go ahead & build my own trusses & put them on top...just want to have at least the 16x16’ assembled & leveled before adding more weight. :ugh2:
The pitch is probably only gonna be around 4:12, as that’s what my front gable is....roof is 5:12 on house :tup:
