I have been working on this property since 2001 and the first project that I did here was to build these two equipment sheds. They are actually pole barns, of sorts. Originally they were to be built on utility poles but I was able to convince my customer to let me make a few modifications to those plans.
The base of the buildings is a 12" x 36" steel reinforced concrete strip footing that extends to 5' below grade. The 12" diameter steel reinforced poured concrete columns are tied into that footing, and into the 12" x 36" steel reinforced concrete grade beams whose tops are 6" below grade. This all ties into the board formed 8" thick steel reinforced concrete end walls.
The roof structures are attic trusses and the roofing is clear anodized aluminum, standing seam, all hidden fasteners.
The wall systems and gates are all chain link on galvanized steel pipe frames with weather block fabric under.
Each building is 60'.
