This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things th-cam.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.
There are a lot of people on here that say, "I would…" Let's be straight here. I have seen these buildings constructed with many different methods. Having said that, I would not comment whether one is better than the other. I chose to watch this video to gain perspective, not to having a pissing contest. Hefferman Company did a great job putting this building up. Facts are facts. Solid construction and a easy to follow video for any person who has the drive and knowledge to want to build their own. *Just for the record, I have no affiliation to this company. I am simply a viewer looking for different perspectives on this type of project. Thank you Hefferman Company for providing this video. It was very useful. :-)
+Jeremy Burkett Well said. A DIYer, I'm pretty darn handy with about everything. But watching how the PROS did this gives one some insight into what you're doing wrong, AND what you're doing right. One thing without question. These guys did quality WORK. Shortcuts are fine as long as they have no detrimental effect on the finished product. But taking the TIME to fit the pieces together correctly assures the weather isn't going to ruin your building before its time. Fit and finish COUNT. If it looks bad, it likely is bad. Conversely when it looks GOOD, you can pretty much take to the bank it will perform as hoped and expected. I'd have foregone the concrete floor for cost savings. But a home built 48" water filled pipe roller will make a darn nice floor. And water kept off will make it last. Plus that pipe roller will come in handy for driveways and so forth. Great video. Great building.
Thanks for sharing. Some come to learn from others or to see what others have done. Some just want to show everyone what they think they know. Please forgive all the subject matter experts posting their unsolicited opinions. Wonder why they would waste their time watching this as they are far more experienced and don't need this information and have accomplished so much more than most of us.
Cindy's husband Carl here. I'm an expert at building these pole barns. What is needed is insulation in the roof, a moisture barrier otherwise the roof will drip inside. The wood will rot. It's called osmosis. So if these so-called experts are going to show people how to build a pole barn, then show them he correct way.
Thanks for the well-done video. I've never built a pole barn. To your critics, I've worked in US and Europe on a few construction jobs. I've listened to the drivel from inspectors why their methods are superior and make assumptions based on faulty logic why other methods they've never used are inferior. What I've learned is, first comes the construction methods. Then they construct the logic to support them and discredit all others. LOL! Thanks again.
Nice looking barn. However, I noticed one thing you forgot to install was the bug stop under the ridge trim. I found it useful to have the crete poured just after the trusses are installed. This gives the light necessary for a good finish as well as several pour locations making it easier for the crete installers.
Guys couple of ideas please don't use cutting wheel on steel use turbo shears, to much heat generated Also what about vapor barrier? Video looks good nice little pole barn
Craig, even with pressure treated wood, those 6x6 posts are going to deteriorate without a means of shedding water. You may have just not included how you drain any water that may infiltrate the post holes, though. The rest of the work, in my opinion, is excellent. btw, I realize you may not want to give away all your secrets. ;-)
Not sure if you could build it big enough to have couple cars and junk! Seems there is no end to keeping junk! Sometimes you get your garage back in your seventies! Tired of it all and sale off the junk and have a garage to park the cars! Just saying!
Thank you Ryan for releasing a great product as this [ Check Details Here?> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. Most of the plans I have imagined in my mind are put down on your woodworking plans. This is more like a genius job. I love it!?
Most of the construction and structure looks fine however I would use a different footings and use slab. For that size of structure you would want to make sure there will be no future problems with the foundation.
We would show you different footings if the video wasn't " How to build a pole building" In this video we show the standard way to build a pole building using holes, concrete, and 4x6 treated posts. As for the size, they build pole buildings 40ft wide by 200ft long or larger. So put down that doobie and stop being so paranoid, lol
Yeah like San said, the building itself prob costs around $3350 or at least i know for a fact the ones with 100% metal frame and studs do. The labor is what prob pushed the total cost to $20k as Remy mentioned.
Don't get me wrong this construction looks top notch. however I'm having a hard time seeing what advantage this has over typical to 2x4 stick built construction?
don't know where those 512 dislikes come from probably people that don't have a clue about building it was a well done build I couldn't even pick it apart very impressive
This pole building is designed to accept 24" R 38 paper faced batts for the ceiling. The walls will receive 16" R 13 paper faced batts. We will someday produce a video that shows the proper install of the insulation. Thanks and i hope this was helpful, Craig Heffernan
That's not a ladder. Its called a pick. It has alternating rungs and is made of heavier aluminum. It has a flat plate on one side for standing. It should not be used as a ladder.
Very good video. On the back side of the building, as the trusses are lifted up, there are what looks like (2) 2x6's or 8's that the trusses are leaning against. Are these boards temporary? My guess is yes but I couldn't tell if they were removed by watching the rest of the video.
Congratulations on a top presentation. I am however curious as to your local health and safety regulations concerning working at heights. In Ireland the leading cause of fatalities on construction sites is falls from heights. Your employees, while no doubt consummate professionals form what I just viewed, were working from a single plank suspended from ladders. In my country, a health and safety inspector would shut down the job site due to the absence of scaffolding. Other than that, bloody good job!
at 6:35 how about running a long and thick silicone bead under the metal ridge capping on both sides of the capping to prevent cockroaches and other insects, OR do you need it w/o silicone to allow heat to escape? On the other hand, you could make a better seal for an air conditioned space.
from a security standpoint, would it no have been better to coat the structure with some osb first? That thin aluminum siding is so easy to kick in....
I am curious - what is the advantage of a pole building? I am familiar with the conventional technique of putting in a foundation and then putting the structure on top. Seems like the pole method would have issues with structural rot earlier than a foundation method. Looks like these guys are doing nice work.
I guess safety is not a big concern. Do the home owners know that if any of your workers falls or is injured on the job they as the owner could be held liable. No Fall arrest (from 4;38 to the end of the show), no guard on the table saw (7;21)...other then that Great Vid.
Pretty good practices. The roof is a problem though. OK using a metal roof, but never use exposed fasteners! Those screws with rubber washers will always fail as the rubber cannot stand up to the extreme heat, cold & sun!
I built a pole building using screws with neoprene washers 13 years ago in Northern Michigan. Never had any leaking even with 4 feet of snow on the roof and many rain storms.
Dave Shooks I still don't trust those washers, especially on the roof. Rubber, neoprene, or what have you doesn't have a 100 year useful life span especially outside in the Sun's UV and heat. It looks like the metal siding people are trying to pass the siding off as roofing. A good asphalt roof should last 20 to 25 years with minor general maintenance; a metal roof should last 5 times that. Caulking or replacing all those screws is not general maintenance. I would use a standing-seam metal roof that has no exposed fasteners for my roof and the same metal siding for the outside walls that the video guys used. The metal siding might make an ok metal roof for a small shed. www.ii-img.com/cmrs-img/products/clicklock-standing-seam.jpg
I said this earlier, but..... I'm not a pro, but an experienced DIYer. I just built a 24x36 foot pole barn. The inspector required - - again, THE INSPECTOR REQUIRED - - the screws to be placed in the gullies. He explained that screws driven into the ridges allows wind lift to dent the roofing around the holes, loosening the metal roofing and causing leaks. I was sceptical so I contacted the roofing manufacturer (Fabral) who stated that installing screws in the ridges VOIDS THEIR WARRANTY. However the inspector also required a bug shield fabric in the ridge vent, something that was not shown in this video. Reply ·
Lotsa comments by the time I show up so someone may have already caught this, but I don't think that's plywood being sandwiched for the garage door header. I looked at it pretty close a couple times and I believe it's just particle (3:50). All in all, a good docu on a basic way to build a "pole building" although alot of the accessories look cheap (starting with the gutters, then there's that "plywood") and good god, faux shutters? Seriously? But a solid build anyway, thanks.
I'm not asking for an actual price just a ball park price. What is the typical going rate for this size building? Enjoyed your vid btw. Thanks for posting.
What area of the country was this built in? I noticed you just poured a slab on grade rather than a monolithic pour...I assume your ground doesn't freeze much?
Would you mind posting cost, as someone noted "without 100k" in heavy equipment. Just a material price We will all most likely use different uses of equipmentI was intrigued to see 4x6 post, I have access to 4x8 post and much cheaper then 6x6 post
I wonder what the material cost is compared to a normal framed building? im have a a 12x22 slab in the back. I'm concidering rebuilding my sefl but im not sure which way IM going with it yet
How do you protect the metalwork from the elements - particularly the roof from surface rust and heavy snow? Will water leak through the roof as snow slowly melts?
Damn you guys need some safety lessons. Amazed you have all your eyes, toes, spines etc.
I know, sorry. Especially the grinder with no face shield x two people at once. Let alone we also don’t use a grinder anymore, we use the nibblers.

being viewing it, but it was worth it many
thanks!
just ordered the *WoodBlueprints. Com* guide for step-by-step videos and different plans to BUILD A SHED. they have some awesome plans in there
Watching pole barn foundations and luckily this is recommended. Just vow! Very nice and precise presentation
I enjoyed this video and was not bored. Thanks for fast forwarding the redundant parts!
Nice looking barn. However, I noticed one thing you forgot to install was the bug stop under the ridge trim.
I found it useful to have the crete poured just after the trusses are installed. This gives the light necessary for a good finish as well as several pour locations making it easier for the crete installers.
He always spends so much money to make his projects look really good.
saludos de chile, gracias por las lecciones, por favor mas videos de construccion de pole barns!!!!!!

Nice build. And good craftsmanship. These guys did a great job. Hard workers, I like that. Thank you.
haha they had to pull the truck out with the bobcat
Very nicely done video. Thankyou! The female voice was nice touch of class.
American motto: Work! ...planning is a waste of time😊❤❤❤❤
Nice video. I am either going to put a pole building or a block foundation for a garage. This gives me some ideas.

Question - are the poles sitting on the cement then held in place with just dirt? or Did you cement around them or anchor plates. ect..
one year later - full of junk - car parked outside- it was too small. lol
This was built in 2011 for a great customer. I visit him often and he actually has it pretty clean and organized due to his OCD, lol.
Too Funny!! Pissed my pants laughing because it is so true!! lol
hystat it always turns out that way

How much does something like this cost?
Around 20,000 the video uploader said.
SuperDagod1
$3,350
Yeah like San said, the building itself prob costs around $3350 or at least i know for a fact the ones with 100% metal frame and studs do. The labor is what prob pushed the total cost to $20k as Remy mentioned.

Please drop the background music.
I turn off the volume
Very nice job! Hard to find trade like you guy's in Calgary AB. That actually give a damn about quality and workmanship!!
Very nice. Makes me want to take on an addition myself.
Nice. In our county you never build any garage from wood, according for fire safety regulation...
like the trick with the ladder at 7:45 :)
That's not a ladder. Its called a pick. It has alternating rungs and is made of heavier aluminum. It has a flat plate on one side for standing. It should not be used as a ladder.

Jake from State Farm do you have pictures of your building? I'm looking at something very similar in size.
Looking good nice jobs
very nice job...
I saw ape man at 4:20. Nice building.
nice work but the top of the roof may like in a windy rain
Very nice !
very well made
I enjoyed this video.
That is NICE!!!!
A metal roof like this with no plywood underneath will make a lot of noise when it rains, right?

👍Great ,perfect, proof team.
Great work. I wish I had one on my property. Approximately how much does it totally cost to build on this size?
Sweet building!!! Very attractive and solid. You didn't insulate? How much?
WOW - that is some WET concrete. A bit overkill with the nails?
thanx for uploading...
awesome work
Aren't rain gutters kind of unnecessary? Since rain is still going to fall next to the building?
I wonder what the material cost is compared to a normal framed building? im have a a 12x22 slab in the back. I'm concidering rebuilding my sefl but im not sure which way IM going with it yet
How do you protect the metalwork from the elements - particularly the roof from surface rust and heavy snow? Will water leak through the roof as snow slowly melts?
The roof is aluminum. Doesnt rust.
interesting building and video! how much does it coes to build this building from scratch?
Why not sheeth and tarpaper roof before metal?? they like condensation dripping?
nice work but you don't afraid about pole wood in the ground??
Wow, almost 2 million views!
😃 Espectacular muy bien 😃 👍
GREAT BUILDING!!!
Great job guys.
Thanks for the video!
Super nice how much to build me one the same way 👷♂️
Last question?
Can these buildings be zone two fitted for coastal line areas?
Lovely building.
Shame it’s build on sticks in the ground.
Seriously how long before they rot off? Why not build it off RSJ’S?
