Sleek metal roofing and horizontal siding ensures that this detached garage with workshop will blend into and compliment any building site location.
The first level has a nine foot ceiling height while the second level side walls start at three feet high and slope up thirteen foot six inches at the ridge.
The unfinished second level loft with vaulted ceilings is intentionally left undeveloped to allow your personalization of this area. A rear facing sundeck increases the flexibility of this space.

Previous Q & A
Q:Is the base of the wall around the building concrete? Are the walls 16" on center? And are the rafters 16" on center? Do you sell an autocad option so I can have the plans engineered for CA?
A:Re: Design 76049.
1. The perimeter wall is a poured concrete stem wall sitting on a continuous poured concrete strip footing, with reinforcing called up in the wall and the strip footing.
2. The exterior wood framed walls are 2 x 6 studs at 16” o.c.
3. The roof joists are 2 x 12’s at 24” o.c.
4. I only have a PDF file version presently available for this design.
Thank you for your interest in one of my designs. Please email with questions or if you require any additional information.
Q:is it possible to remove the wood post from the garage and keep the posts upstairs?
A:Yes it is possible to remove the wood post in the double garage area.
The easiest way would be to slide the existing wood post in the garage area back to the staircase wall. Then locate the only loft post directly above the lower post and redesign the loft ridge beam size accordingly.
Best regards,
Regan
Q:Plan #76049 The concrete shown going up the side, is that part of the foundation? I can't seem to find anything about it in the notes. Also, why are there 6 x6 posts both below and above in the loft?
A:Hi,
The original design location has a deep snow accumulation and the client wanted to protect his siding, hence the high concrete walls above grade.
The original design called for a rustic build so the client requested oversized heavy posts, floor support beams and heavy ridge beam all from rough sawn material.
If you wanted to eliminate all these features the design could be modified to incorporate engineered attic trusses which would clear span this width.
Thank you for your interest in one of my designs.
Best regards,
Regan
