A quality-first approach from the ground up:
- Footing pads beneath posts for uplift and load distribution
- Minimum 4-ply 2x8 nailed laminated columns with Southern Yellow Pine pressure-treated bottoms
- 2x6 wall strapping at 24" o.c. and 2x6 purlins over roof trusses
- Truss-to-post notched connections with GRK fasteners (not nails) for superior shear/withdrawal strength
- Optional steel brackets extending into the truss heel for greater wall stability
- 4' spacing on both sidewall and endwall posts
- 16' 2x8 extended to top chord on each endwall post; 2-ply endwall trusses where bi-fold doors are installed
- 28-gauge wall/roof/ceiling metal panels; 26-gauge trims and flashings
- Colour-matched gable vents and continuous vented 3" ridge cap foam for airflow and weather seal
