JET 445 43 Report post Posted November 14, 2020 Wow, can't believe they made that building using timber, here in Australia nobody would even consider using timber for such a large building. Timber here is incredibly expensive so almost all industrial buildings are steel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted November 14, 2020 Pole/post building's are extremely popular in the Midwest. Their not as popular in Florida or any states with termites LOL. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted November 14, 2020 Here's what you have to do if you go with a steel building. What I don't like about a steel building is they have no overhang. All my buildings including our home as a 2 ft overhang, looks much better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JET 445 43 Report post Posted November 15, 2020 I love those old red pole barns that you guys have and I am amazed that they last 200 years, down here the termites are ferocious and would eat it faster than you could put it up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoneWolf2U 136 Report post Posted November 18, 2020 New building is looking sweet! Good choice staying out of California or your taxes would be paying for the dems trip to HI while your under lock down waiting your building to be built. 1 mustangstofear reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoneWolf2U 136 Report post Posted December 4, 2020 A bit jealous of that building but its looking good. Not sure what you have started but the trend is catching on about the old Bronco's as i keep seeing more places jumping on your bandwagon everyday. Hope they do not steal your thunder or products as they will probably have them made in China. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted December 4, 2020 We should be pouring concrete on Tuesday or Wednesday, then the following week the walls get 2 inches of spray foam then R19 on top of that which will be a whopping R50. Doing a R60 in the ceiling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
