Built a 24x30 pole barn shop, steel roof trusses at 10’oc. 6x6 posts with 2x4 infill framing. All in at $18,000. Includes 2 - 10x8 overhead doors R10 insulated, 1 3’ door, concrete slab, whole building has 7/16 osb on roof and walls. Also has 12’ side walls, 4/12 pitch roof. In addition, it has a 10’x24’ loft in the rear that is 8’ aff. I did all the work myself except grading the pad and concrete finishing. I did form and prep for the slab, finisher placed and finished concrete. Not bad for $25 a square foot.
There are couple of different effective ways to insulate. A friend of mine used panels with an airspace between the panels and the exterior. This added R-Value. When you walk inside you would never know you were in a metal bldg. He finished it and it is unreal.
I'm in New England and needed a frost wall so my foundation was $15,600 and that incudes site work and prepped for a 2post car lift in 1 bay. It's a 26'x30 metal building like yours with a 10'x20' lean fully insulated $21,400. I needed it engineered for higher wind and snow load per local building code so engineer plan cost $1550. My driveway is millings/hard pack and came out to $5000.
Yup. Especially if you find a place that doesn't need this much grading and tree clearing. But toss in plumbing in the concrete, some insulation and electrical and you can have the framing done in your own time.
There will came a time when you say that your budget was worth every penny. I just watched a CZcamsr cry real tears after spending (his claim) $250,000 for a tube frame tent storage building that collapsed under the weight of a allegedly freak snow storm. It looked as if someone could have been seriously hurt the moment it collapsed, but thankfully didn't.. Even after you insulate this beautiful build and have a 800 amp 480vac three phase electrical service and install HVAC you will still not have spent $250K.
Thanks for the video and cost break down plus the other build vid. I'm just now looking at metal buildings. So far I understand there's tubular steel or red iron (and the latter can be welded on site or bolted together from a kit.) Questions, if you can spare the time, please? 1. Assuming you've built on a slab the way you have, what is the lifespan of this tubular steel construction, please? 2. And btw, did the concrete cost and any site work include labor? 3. Plus, were there other details we need to be sure and look at when comparing bids for the metal? Colored screw heads, for instance... What else in the world do we need to watch for that might be included as default in some companies but omitted and marked up in others? [ The reason I ask is that my friend just showed me a quote and had not noticed that there was a note at the bottom saying the purchaser would be responsible for renting or providing a LIFT! That is heavy equipment and should not be required for this type building, surely? ( I was told not until you get taller, 14ft walls, on tubular steel.) Your 10ft sidewall building was put up by a 3man crew and ladders! Plus it should be included in the installation which was supposed to be part of the quote! ] Thank you for the videos! [ And the dog petting video was a lovely break. Kudo's. :) ]
So the slab was built the way that the building engineers from the building company told us to. I need to do another video this week where I point out the things they did on that and the building we liked over other companies, like the trusses and how they were different. They have a 20y warranty for rust on frame and walls. and we will be keeping it up, So we are not particularly worried about lifespan. More worried about storm damage than building failure. Concrete cost I listed was labor included. We paid xxxx for us to have a complete slab finished and done, so they came the day before and did final forming and poured the next day. As far as extra details, we had a pretty solid company so they didn't nickel and dime stuff like screws. I will say get the overhang/drip edge at a minimum. Ours also had a ridge vent at the rooftop. So that's nice as well.
Build a pole barn, not a metal building. Look up Diamondback Trusses from FL. They have distributors. I am in NC. Drove 2 1/2 hours to pick up a 24x30 pole barn package. Saved thousands over cost of a local company. Metal buildings are harder to insulate and finish. Pole buildings foundation are less expensive. Do more research into pole framed buildings, you won’t regret it. A know people that did the metal building route, some happy, some not.
The 15k included assembly from whoever the building seller was. There was the option to assemble ourselves, but it's worth it for them to do it. It was actually only 1500ish for putting it up, and that was one day, so MORE than worth the time, effort, and warranty
What is the minimum interior height. I know you mentioned a lift and from what I read you need 12 ft clearance to lift a vehicle to full height. I'm currently preparing for a 30x40 with 3 8x10 doors and went with 11 ft walls. Is this overkill?
That's basically what we did. "Stock" from this company was an 8 foot wall. We went with 10. If you look at the roof trusses, our peak is 6'3' higher than the 10' wall, with the horizontals on the truss kinda splitting the difference, so those are 12-13'. Should be more than enough for what we plan on doing. If you are working on more trucks and SUVs and taller vehicles, that extra foot or two may work better for you, or if you do extra pitch in the roof, you can get extra height out of your horizontal truss support.
@@MultiShopMatt Ok thanks, I have to get a metal garage over a normal wood one because I'm in a flood zone and have heard condensation can be an issue with metal garages, so good to hear.
I disagree, I got my 20x25 10ft walls and an 8ft lean too all assembled in one day for $6500 I also paid 1800 for the concrete slab, and 2000 for closed cell spray foam and a few hundred more for OSB walls and conduit and boxes etc. I have about $11,500 in the whole thing.
Mistakes? How? I said we had to take care of clearing, leveling, concrete, and permitting before the building came in. Didn't say the building company charged us. All of this had to be done before they would even schedule to assemble it.
@@MultiShopMatt It is simple to throw out a comment like i did and I appreciate you responding to my comment. Being a DIYer i (TM 1:09) I'd of done the Tree and Stump removal. Saying a little more than you where expecting (15K at TM 1:45) is a large oversight on your end. Expecting the shop to not be hot when you picked Black is another mistake (TM 2:39). (TM 3:20) Are good Choices but windows are a bit small but that is just preference (you called this out at TM 4:04) & 10 foot high is a great choice and this is helpful. 5:12 roof was a great point and if i build i would do the same & over hang matters more than you'd think, the gutters will help but that lower area is where the problems start and larger overhang would help. sorry for late response i just noticed that i had a reply to my comment this morning.
@@superj8575 Dude, I think he has realized the more he replies to you the longer your next negative troll. You must have bought a Tent storage building and it's trash after the first wind storm. Amirite?
Straight to the point. No messing around! Thank you.

Not bad at all. I still want to do a "stick" walled building one day for more hand working stuff and a red iron one for bigger deep storage
Make a video about it. Let’s see how it came out.
Thanks For Giving The Cost Off The Top 👍🏿👌🏿
No problem 👍

We got some basic panels up now for tool shelf holding, but GA summer isn't playing nice this year, haha.
Guys will see this and say “hell yeah”
Hell yeah
Hell yeah
Hellzyeah!
Hell yeah! 30 x 40 is a great size and the bigger doors and taller walls is money well spent. Add Spray foam and a mini split and you'll be pimpin.

That seems to be about inline with what I would expect, especially with the extra steps you have to take in that climate.
I think your dad (SECRETLY) built that for YOU. ✔️
Great Video too.
.
It'll hand-me-down eventually, but I want him to enjoy it for a long time before then!
@@MultiShopMatt Great 👍. Enjoy your time with him and everyone else in your family.
That's a house for way under 100k
Yup. Especially if you find a place that doesn't need this much grading and tree clearing.
But toss in plumbing in the concrete, some insulation and electrical and you can have the framing done in your own time.
Definitely not a house, a hot box. Only spray form insulation will keep this building reasonably comfortable. The black metal doesn’t help either.
I want this shop
For the low low price (not low) you can have your own.
Me too
Pretty cool. I would love to do something like this
Only thing stopping you is a lot more money that you expected, lol.
There will came a time when you say that your budget was worth every penny. I just watched a CZcamsr cry real tears after spending (his claim) $250,000 for a tube frame tent storage building that collapsed under the weight of a allegedly freak snow storm.

I'm here hoping for a freak snow storm. It's too hot outside currently, lol

What is the height of the side wall?
10' walls, ~16' on the tall sides.
I’m also located in Georgia. If you do not mind, what company did you end up using for your building?
TOL Buildings (top of the line buildings)
I would put an RV inside it and move in. LOL
The next one that I personally build with have an RV Height door for sure!
@@MultiShopMatt Big metal building with a full bath would be perfect.

Just checked. 140ish inches to the bottom of the horizontal supports on the truss.
im going with a 30x40x11 as well for a future lift. mine will have the 4 12 roof pitch though so the truss should be about 12 foot inside.
How bad is the condensation right now with no insulation?
With current weather it isn't an issue, even with rain. Is it humid, yes, but so is outside, and it isn't a conditioned space at the moment.

When did you get it built? Was your ground already flat?
Pole barns 🤟
Pole barn was something we looked at when we wanted to do stages as we went, but decided as an all in one, this was better for us.
Lol we all know 6 inches is more than enough! 😂
I'm showing this to my lady to prove a point.
Woah a new Multishop Matt video! 🤯🤝
I know right. Someone was slacking
it seems like this is all you mistakes. Those metal building guys come in and put up a bulding. You do the rest. Also a black building absorbs heat.
Mistakes? How? I said we had to take care of clearing, leveling, concrete, and permitting before the building came in. Didn't say the building company charged us. All of this had to be done before they would even schedule to assemble it.
