Im a welder that grew up in decatur tx glad to see someone local posting full build videos.
Great video. I was a metal building erector for 40 years. Truly enjoyed my work. No one had equipment like you have then to pick up your steel. I only had a forklift but it done the job.
Keep up the good work and vidoes. Utube can get your business started and make you some money. I subscribed. Looking forward for your next video.
where to buy metall pipes for cheap?"
@@RomanSherin-lm9cs sorry sir but I do not know any place except a wholesale supplier.
@@billybooth6737 how to find this wholesale supplier?:)
As a field mechanic for united rentals off 287 and Harmon, I use these machines also and can’t agree more about the enclosed cab. It’s so nice! If you ever need anything we are right down the road!
Thanks brother I appreciate it
Hello,
New follower here, I enjoyed the behind the scenes clips and pointers.
Keep up the hustle and look forward to the new post. Love that king ranch too 🔥💪
Thanks Seiko! God Bless
Just watchim random youtube videos and end up finding a neighbor! Lol, I'm building in Paradise!
Great video! Keep up the good work
So awesome👍🏻
Great video!
Thank you
Well done ! 👏👏
@gateway builders Nice work. I am curious is this more cost-effective than ordering a prefab red iron building? What is the main reason for stick building versus prefab in this instance. Thanks for posting
It the moment weld up buildings are the most cost effective shop. Bolt ups are more expensive because your paying a material supplier to fabricate

Really appreciate you showing how it is done. Do you weld some sort of plate to the top of your posts for the beam to sit on or is the post open at the top?
Thanks! It’s open then the beam gets welded all the way around the post opening to seal it up
@@GatewayBuilders Thanks. What makes you decide whether or not to run the purlins flush vs on top of the beam?
@@joesmith6972 Builders preference, some like the ability to be able to slide electrical conduit continuously above the beam. 👍
Question: I don’t know if you BBC oils answer, but is a metal building suppose to wiggle once it has been finished?
Hey man amazing video. I’ve been searching all over youtube to find info about a build just like that to make my own personal gym and the content here it’s incredible. Any tips if I’ve wanted to get an stucco finished to match my house? Thank you
Thank you! I would put a stud wall up and decking if I was doing stucco. Or you may be able to drill the foam board to the exterior metal sheeting and do it that way. Not real sure on that one
@@GatewayBuilders Thank you for taking the time to reply. I think I might just do metal for the siding. Wood price is insane. For a 30’ x 50’ should I use on the walls I beam or 4”x4” square tubing?
@@luiscervantes5662 how tall do you want the side walls? Because we use 4x4 up to a 14ft side wall. Anything taller we bump up to ibeam typically but it depends on the complexity of the build.
@@GatewayBuilders Oh it should work cause I’m only planning on having them at 10-12’ so it should do the trick. Man I truly appreciate that you take the time to reply. Maybe further down the line when I’m ready to start the project if you have the time we could work something out like a consulting session or something. Either way I’ve taken a lot of information so far so thank you
@@luiscervantes5662 good luck Luis and I’m happy to help.
Hello and greetings. I would like to thank you for recording such videos, which help people like me a lot. I have a request from you. My request is that you help me to build the halls I want. My hall has an opening of 30 meters, but without the middle column at a height of 6 meters. I want to know with what size H beam I can build these halls. I will build it. Of course, if the opening is 30 meters, it will answer. If it doesn't answer, I can make the opening of the shed up to 23 meters. I am waiting for your correct answer. I thank you again for your help. I wish you a good day.
Yeah when you breathe in that dirt and dust you can very sick. I new someone who got Valley Fever from the dust. Valley fever is an infection caused by a fungus that lives in the soil.
What is the kubota tractor and attachment you’re using
Do y'all have a general rule of thumb when it comes to picking the size of your I-beams?
Yes depending on gable vs flat roofs we have different ibeam that support different weights.
On a normal 30ft wide build we use 8” 15#, but on a 40ft wide we use 12” 16# or 19#.
How can I get in touch with you. I have a couple of questions to ask you if that cool
What distance can 4" C-Purlin span and 6" also?
Wouldn’t it have been easier to just put the trusses right on top of each other, then weld the metal plates?
Great video, just subscribed!! How thick does the slab & footers have to be for your inbeds to work?
We always do 24” footers, most of our slabs are monolithic 4”. Unless engineered differently
Great video... until I saw made in Mexico on the Steel 😢
Looks great, new to metal work, what gauge (thickness) of material did you use?
Thanks! We use all different types of gauges depending on what we build
If I want to have 40ft x 50ft clear span single slope what size ibeams would you recommend?
Me personally I wouldn’t want to go under 14”. It’s gonna naturally settle a little. But engineers would tell you 20-22”
@@GatewayBuilders ok awesome. Have you built trusses for something like that? I am considering those as well, it is for our house so it is just as much an aesthetic thing we like the look of them... But want to go single slope for our water catchment and most of the trusses are 30' max and I am out in the middle of nowhere Arizona.
@@OffGrit We have built the trusses before and it’s very simply. Just cutting the pitch on both sides of the beam
where to buy steel pipes?
Hi, i hace a cuestión. You can weld that structure with flux wire? thanks in advance 😊
Yes you can
How much this will cost
What piece of equipment do you use to hang the roof trusses?
Skid steer with a teleboom
How long of a trailer do you use?
Now we use a 30ft gooseneck with 2 12k axles. But 7k axles will do just fine, just make sure you keep a eye on your weight. 👍🏻
can i get a copy of your plan so i know what materials to buy
I’m sorry but we don’t offer a material list at this time. But you can contact your local metal supply house and I’m sure they can help you get what you need to get the job accomplished
Where do you get the metal beams
We have metal suppliers near us.
what gauge are you use on posts?
We use a variety depending on the build. Mostly 3/16
Why not just raise the back of the house?
