The garage is looking great!!!
Couple of ideas on the electrical and air plumbing. I have a 28 x 30 garage and ran two 20 amp circuits to each outlet (one circuit with gray outlets and another with white outlets) so that at any point in the garage, if I had high electrical demands, I'd have two circuits readily available. I also plumbed in air lines inside each wall spaced the outlets so when using air tools, I can just use a shorter hose to the nearest outlet w/o snaking an air line all over the place (be sure to install an outlet near at least one garage door for outside use). I also recessed one of the retractable air reels into the ceiling between the two primary bays near the center of the garage for air access there. Lastly, and I realize it might be a little late for you on this one, but when I built my detached garage, I used a 14" I-beam to span the width of the garage. I then used truss floor joists across the top of the i-beam for the 2nd story floor that I used for car part storage upstairs. The floor joists left about 4" of the I-beam exposed across the garage ceiling which works great for a chain hoist trolley that I can use when unloading anything too heavy for me to deal with by myself. And I agree, you can never have too much light!! |

Oh heck no! For me, I love watching cement work, construction, anything that involves building stuff. It amazes me to see experts make it look so easy. Looking very good (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif)
