So, after several false starts I'm finally building my workshop for my 914's and other stuff. Will be breaking ground right after the first of the year.
Building will be a truss 40x50 (2000 sq. ft.) with a 6" foundation (3500 psi). Walls are 12'. Windows will be 8' off the ground. This will provide some light, opportunity for airflow and the height will help with security. 4 rollup doors and one walk through. Walls and ceiling will have closed cell R12 insulation. I'm finalizing the layout of the doors and windows over the next few days before the build order goes in. Once the order goes in it will be an 8 week wait for delivery then 2-3 days installation. The bathroom and tool room will be built later so there is flexibility in that. Of course, the location of the bathroom fixtures will be set once the foundation is poured. The building (door openings, windows, etc) are drawn to scale as are the cars (911 dimensions). So, any suggestions on layout? NOTE: The rollup doors on the end are better suited for the land it's going on. Plus, as a bonus, placing them on the end is less expensive than side doors. |
