    Living in Maine, we see that float plane fairly often. Our daughter-in-law is a Maine Forest Ranger and they have a plane and the float plane is the Game Warden plane. We live down along the Kennebec and have private float planes land on the river and dock up at the Town dock and have lunch at the restaurant.
    Nice job on the “shop”.

    Ties in the lower third of rafter are called rafter ties and ties in the upper third near the ridge are called collar ties. I would run one more brace on top of your rafter ties to the center of the gable ends to connect them. Also some long diagonals on the inside of the stud walls to keep it plumb.

  • @joetaadaa7074
    @joetaadaa7074 2 місяці тому +1

    Jason, just a thought, the shear force that a screw can take is a lot less than a 16D nail. Since your rafters are in shear when weight on the roof spreads the wall, I would be concerned your screwed together rafters are lacking in strength.
    As far as Garage or shop will you have a smaller door on the side for quick access? Otherwise, when you open those big barn doors, you are letting heat out.
    Forgive me if you feel I am speaking out of turn.
    Good luck!

    • @HanbleceyaRanch
      @HanbleceyaRanch  2 місяці тому

      Hi Joe, appreciate the comment, no forgiveness needed 😉
      All of the rafters are secured to the building by nails. The collar ties and rafter ties were screwed together, but I am thinking that in order for the walls to spread, not only do the screws across nine rafters ties and 3 collar ties have to fail, but so do all of the nails in those corresponding rafters.
      I completely understand the concern, but I simply cannot see a scenario where that would happen. Given the snow load we could potentially see. Now truth be told, I may be underestimating it, but given my experience with all of my other buildings, we don’t have much of a load issue on my 412 pitched roofs so I have to think the shops 512 roof should be good.
      If I’m wrong, you folks will be the first to know. 😊
      I do plan on putting a man door in once I add the lean to in but that’ll be a future project. Thank you for the comment and support! 😊

    The first time I ever heard one was in the wilds of MN. Alone in a trailer with no electricity, surrounded by trees off a dirt road, I heard that scream. It woke me up from a sound sleep, and I was literally frozen in place for about a half hour...mortified. Decades earlier, the man who owned our property had axed his wife to death as she milked their cow.....and so, the fear seemed pretty darn real....that man was spending the rest of his life in prison after being found hiding in the woods for days before capture. Ah, the memories.....yikes.
