This is a book about how to build an all-purpose 30' x 24' barn with
site plans. It also includes how to adapt this basic barn for
use as a garage, carpenter's shop, artist's studio, apartment, or
garden/animal shed.
Perhaps this is too pretty to be used as an ordinary shed, but more
than up to the task. When these plans are followed the result
is a perfectly proportioned structure that captures a true colonial
style. Every element is given the proper attention from the
strap hinges to the transom window over the doors. The roof
trusses allow for the addition of a loft or extra storage space.
All plans include a set of architectural construction sectional
drawings and a full materials list. These plans include
instructions for installing traditional exterior hardware and barn
door hanger hardware.
In this book are complete plans and step-by-step, illustrated
instructions for species specific shelters for all kinds of animals
from the backyard to the barnyard. A great book for anyone on
the ranch or farm.
