Last summer I started a 24x40 pole barn that will be my home office and a 3 bay garage with plenty of storage and some additional "outdoor living" space.
There is a power line easement and a large tree that constrained the size and placement of the structure, so I was originally plannig a 24x24.
In the search for low price options to get "in the dry" I found a roof system for a used 40x60 chicken house.
I decided to put the trusses on 2 foot centers and shorten the building from 60' to just 24' and use the rest of the roofing tin for the walls. It worked out pretty close... I cut my last piece of tin the other day.
Here are photos of the project.
I will try to keep them in order so it is easier to discuss if you are thinking of building a shop.
