In Reply to: OT - Certified vs Non-certified Metal Carports???? posted by Bill VA on December 07, 2015 at 11:11:03:

I have a "non - certified" 18 x 21 carport. We had it on top of a hill for 5 years and it never moved with 3' rebar pounded into the ground. Moved it down the hill, pounded in the same rebar stakes and added 3 sides and it never moved for 5 more years until a couple weeks ago.

The shed opened to the west and normally the worst winds seem to come out of the south, north or east with a storm. We had 30-60 MPH sustained winds from the west for 2 days - on day two the shed flipped end for end. This surprised me considering the shed was mostly full of hay, I figured it wouldn't be an issue until the hay was gone. When it flipped the end wall scooped up abut 10 bales of hay that landed in the roof - which seemed to keep it from blowing away. 4 days later on a calm Saturday morning I lifted it part way up with a loader and then we pulled it the rest of the way over. Landed almost where is started from. A few roofing screws to tighten up the seams and it doesn't even leak. On the peaks on the front (where I lifted it with the tractor and loader) and the back (where it stood on end twice) are beat up. For $599 I can't complain too much. From now on I'll tie the frame of the shed to baler (stored with the hay) to keep it from lifting.

Today's Featured Article - History of the Nuffield Tractor - by Anthony West. The Nuffield tractor story started in early 1945. The British government still reeling from the effects of the war on the economy, approached the Nuffield organization to see if they would design and build an "ALL NEW" British built wheeled tractor, suitable for both British and world farming. ...
