I have wanted to put up a machine shed for 5 years and didn't have the funds but I'm about done with tarps.
We don't have the cheap pole barn builders like down in the midwest, just trusses seems to cost as much as whole buildings down there.
The tin is about 0.80$ per ft2, trusses are 2.20 per ft2 for 30 ft span, 3$ / ft2 for 40 ft span, 5$/ft2 for 60 ft span.
2x4 and 2x6 is about 800$ per mbf in lifts so a bit if money there too.
Sure makes a tarp building look good.
Trying to get some pricing on steel trusses that take wood purlins now.
What are people paying for pole barns in your area?
