just curious if it is possible to raise the height of a pole building. my shop is a 24x32 x 9 and with the over head door its tight to get my ford 4000 in there. i also have an issue with the concrete floor sweating and it has flooded only 1/4 of an inch and only 1 or 2 times since i've lived here but i was thinking. if i striped the building and back filled 6 - 8inch thick pad of gravel then built my barn back using the existing trusses, perlins, girts and headers. the barn needs a new roof and it needs a vapor barrier so that needs replaced any way. but i was thinking of using sister posts and making it tall enough id have 12ft door clearance and adding an enclosed lean to on one side to give me more square footage. i would reuses any metal i could and i have a good source for cheap or free lumber not to mention i've been hoarding material to renovate this biulding for a while. so other than the vapor barrier , concrete, fastners and some metal and doing the work my self i think it would be cheaper than biulding a new shop. so what do you all think is it possible, is it cheaper to do it this way, what is your opinions.
oh it also has 4x6 posts and 8ft spacing if that makes a difference.
