By A Customer

A great book for do-it-yourselfers, and entrepreneurs needing to build their own studio, apartment, storage or garden potting shed-greenhouse, barn garage, retail shop, or retirement cottage. The list is as endless as your imagination.The nine chapters are well detailed, but easy to follow and understand even for beginners. Basic and sound building strategies as well as clear definitions and options are used to help you build a basic structure or finish it as a shop or studio.

A book for beginning builders,
By GENE GERUE "Author, Find Your Ideal Country Home" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Building a Multi-use Barn (Paperback)
This is an excellent primer to use if you are new to building. The entire process from stake layout to finish trim is given step-by-step with ample and clear illustrations so that anyone who can use tools can build a building, not just a barn, but a house, garage, workshop, or studio. The particular project is a 24 by 30-foot multi-use barn with a monolithic concrete slab floor, wood-framing and gable roof. Included are foundation, framing, plumbing, electrical, heating, insulation, roofing, siding. After you build this, you can build essentially anything--the principles remain the same.

The perfect builders' guide,
By Donald J. Berg - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Building a Multi-use Barn (Paperback)
Builder John Wagner shows the versatility that's possible with one good barn. Using a 24' by 30' plan and simple framing, Wagner alters the interior layout to create a tractor garage and garden shed, a studio, a workshop and office, and a stable. His ideas should be considered by anyone looking for practical uses for old barns. Besides being a design guide, this book covers all the basics of light frame construction with easy-to-read text, photos and great illustrations.
