General
Assembly Steps
Once you receive your new building begin by unpacking the pre-cut framing, doors and hardware. You will also receive a detailed manual with step by step instructions. Each step is explained with clear instructions and detailed line art and has been developed with the novice builder in mind. | |
Following the manual you will be directed to cut the siding material for application to the wall frames. This step is made extraordinarily easy because the pre-cut walls are used as a template, once assembled, prior to cutting. Simply trace the outline of the wall and cut. | |
Truss components come pre-cut with pre-cut gussets to ensure proper alignment during the assembly proccess. Roof trusses are designed to meet heavy snow loads of 45 lbs. psf and 90 mph wind loads. | |
Once wall and gable assembly is complete you are ready to begin assembly and placement of trusses. Apply sheathing and shingles. Roof sheathing is 7/16" OSB ( Oriented Strand Board ). Get a friend to help and you'll be done in no time! | |
Our pre-built door trim insures that you will finish with a professional look when your barn raising is complete. Powder coated door hardware is included with your kit and the manual gives detailed instructions on how to hang each door. |
