Just getting too many toys and not enough space for everything. I'm looking at putting up a basic pole shed. Nothing fancy, 3 sides and a roof , open to the south. Maybe 12 foot clearance. Can anyone give me an idea of price per square foot?
Thanks

Huge number of variables. Just for materials, as bare bones as I could do it I built a hay shed attached to a barn (28'x72'x16' on the high side) for just under $2000 materials. Of course the back wall and 1 set of posts were there already. Hired labor was another $1000 with me running the job. Built one at my dads this summer (attached to a tobacco barn) with the side wall enclosed and 1 end open. It ran a little over $2000 but he didn't put in nearly as many rafters as I did. It was 22'x84'x17' (high side). Material prices were: 20' cedar posts $10 each, 2x6 oak .50 a board foot, 2x6x24 poplar .50/bdft. Sheeting lumber (poplar) 1x6 .40 /bdft. Multicolored siding metal was $20 per square in odd lengths. 5 gallons of black paint makes it all look the same though. New metal was somethign like $40 / square.

I have built several sheds like the one you are describing. They cost me about $1.75 a square foot for materials. Three sides and a roof, open to the south. I use them for my cattle in the winter.

I figured the price for a 56 x 78 pole barn I put up about 5 years ago; nothing charged to labor (off season, farm labor was drawing salary, anyway), using materials on-hand; except for roof and partial concrete slab; figured less than $2.00 per square ft.....

Roughly 7-10 dollars a square foot. The larger you go the cheaper per square foot, at least to a point. 65' is about as wide as you can go with a 4/12 pitch on the roof and still haul trusses down the road without permits and escorts. The lower end is no windows, overhang, insulation in the roof, etc. Higher end w/ a 1' overhang and a couple windows. That is the lower end of the scale. If your close to Wakeman, OH we could bid it.

i've been thinking about a 32 X64 X14 .what would be the cheapest way to go. i want to have half for a shop , so i would put a dividing wall in the middle for a 32 x32 shop. and the rest for an open front storage. what is the best way to go. i want to be able to get equipent that is tall inside to work on but doesnt need to go all the way to the back of the shed. would a single slope using rafters cattle tromp shed style roof work or would it be cheaper to go trusses and a peaked roof.thanks in advance? probably do all the work myself .

I highly doubt you want a post in the middle of your shop, so I would say trusses would be the way to go. That way the machinery storage part has no inside posts, either. My machinery barn at home is a 40x70 with 16' bays and it would be WAY better not to have the inside posts. It has a sloping roof, roughly 17-18' at the front down to probably 10 at the rear. Just how tall of equipment are we talking? Shoot me an email at [email protected] and I'll get some more details and give you a materials list... Then you can get some local prices and see which is cheaper.

PS Just to give you a rough idea, my uncle built a 40x64x14 a few years ago. Metal sides, trussed roof. a VERY nice barn. He put translucent panels in the roof to let light in. Anyway, his material cost was roughly $9,000. Prices were a bit cheaper then, so it would probably be 10-11K now.
