DIY Pole Building Kits
If you plan to construct your own building it is important to find the right plans to
properly size your structure and identify the layout you are interested in. We also suggest you look over our how to build a pole barn section for tips and ideas.
Pole building kits are sold with plans and blueprints. Some of the critical decisions (size, placement, ridge height) you make can be changed by insurance issues, zoning, and building permits so don't forget to look into these three areas before making a purchase. Make sure you know the right pressure treated wood to use for your pole barn kit foundation.
Types of Construction
Pole buildings can be designed using the more common platform framing for interior walls or quality post frame construction methods. Each has its merits and are described in more detail on each page.
Pole construction is durable. Its strength lies in the ability of the posts to transmit forces into the ground. This page explains why poles are so strong to help you make good purchasing decisions.
Depending on how you plan to frame around your poles you may need to know about sealing pressure treated poles.
