I’m not wanting a shop, but a 54’x80’ pole barn with lean to on both sides to do a roof over our mobile home to help with energy costs and will provide front, rear porches and a carport. Good Karma here. lol. Hope you guys are doing well

It's definitely possible for your string to be sagging that much but you also need to pop the string to make sure it's not snagged on something.

When using string, it is good to have something in between at the start and end so that it does not come into contact with anything else. Easy to accidentally push the string out or the friction causes the string to not be completely straight.

Me and my uncle built one of these. Putting the tin roof on was the hardest part because the tin was very slippery. You will need a harness, and since you are skinnier than me, it might be a bit easier for you. You'll also need shoes with rubber, grippy soles.

Looking nice. I have a question in regards to the use of no post brackets. Is the engineers reasoning behind not using post brackets in the footings because no side walls will be built yet? I have seen larger buildings in tornado valley use the brackets instead of submerging the post in the footing with no issue. I just didn't know if the extra strength of having the framing for the side walls had anything to do with it.

@Woodbrew 3 ай бұрын

Partially yes, but also areas with tornados don't have codes for sustained wind ratings like hurricane area do. Most of the US has a 90mph wind rating requirement. So it's not that we couldn't build it using those, it's just that our building department requires it to be built to 150mph. Even with it closed in, these brackets weren't enough either. The normal way of using wall girts wrapped around the posts would exceed the shear rating of the post and bracket. We will have to frame stud walls fastened into their own footings when we close it in. Pretty much everything I learned on KZbin from the post frame guys wouldn't work for our area after speaking to a structural engineer unfortunately. Less than 30 minutes from our home the rating is 180mph and continues to go up into FL. It's pretty wild what has to be done to conform to that building standard. Most homes here have a continuous metal strap that goes from in the slab up the wall and over every truss or rafter.

@stflaherty63 3 ай бұрын

It is interesting to see the differences between how you are building your post and beam structure as compared to how @AmbitionStrikes built their "barndominium". Also, hearing about your wind rating requirements makes me wonder what the earthquake rating requirements here in California would do to the engineering, design, and costs of construction.

After much thought and consideration, and since hindsight is always better than foresight, I have reached the conclusion that it would have made more sense to assemble each truss at its intended location. 😀 18:57

13'6" That is the maximum height allowed. Most trucks though will change the tire size from 24.5 inch tires and rims to 22.5 inch tires and rims to lower the truck down to 13'4"

You should’ve put a barrier between the wood and concrete when you build a structure if not the wood will decay quickly when it’s in concrete and the dampness that’s often present concrete can trap moisture against the wood can cuz it to rot

This is pretty much the only way they are built where we live. Not sure if our post treatment is different or if our soil just drains better, but this is the tried and true way of building here.

I’ve been designing a pole barn and the steel truss manufacturer is saying a steel truss with 30 ft span is 300 lbs and a 36 ft span is 360 lbs. That 30 ft truss doesn’t look like it’s 300lbs in the video.

BIG MISTAKE. A string line when tight will ALWAYS be straight. A laser is a mechanical optical device. When was the last time you had it CALIBRATED? They should be re-calibrated yearly. There are 2 axis, X & Y. Set it up on a tripod that the top flange is very level (use a torpedo level), attach the laser loosely, turn it on & let it level. Set your receiver on grade about 75' away & keep it there (you could tywrap it to a post). Now go to the laser while it is still on & carefully turn it 180 degrees let it re-level. It should still be on grade at the receiver. Then turn it 90 degrees, repeat the process to check the other axis. IF the laser does not hit the receiver on grade out of all 4 windows IT NEEDS TO BE CALIBRATED. One more thing, the cheaper price you pay for a laser the more often it will need calibration. There may be a deadband setting on the receiver that you might check to see if it's on fine & not wider. Cheaper lasers have wider beam widths. Lasers are only as good as you maintain them. If you want to be precise use a water level.

@Woodbrew 3 ай бұрын

I mean worst case scenario it’s a 1/4” over 48’ mistake. There is more variation in the material widths/crowning in purlins than that so we should be alight.

@countrymagic61 3 ай бұрын

IMO ditch the laser level. It is a good tool to use, don't get me wrong. But, laser levels can fall out of calibration. Am I an expert about laser levels? No I am not. However, a tried and true method, and much less expensive is using a water level. Once you set the height you need from the reservoir, use the other end to mark your desired height on each and every pole. Just a thought. I know you are using what you have on hand, and that is what I do. I am enjoying this build series. Be safe and God Bless.
