This week readers “Ask the Guru” if one can raise their barn 2 feet, what would need to be done to make it livable once erected, and if Hansen Buildings can “bring and build in Indiana.”
DEAR POLE BARN GURU: Can I raise my pole barn 2′? CHRIS in TROY
DEAR CHRIS: While it may be possible, it is a project best determined by engaging a Registered Professional Engineer who can do a physical investigation of your existing building. He or she can then provide a safe and adequately engineered structural design solution.
DEAR POLE BARN GURU: What would need to be done to make it livable once erected? Is there electrical included and a kitchen and plumbing or would we add our own electrical system and plumbing etc.? HENDRIK in MARYSVILLE
DEAR HENDRIK: Our goal is to provide you with a “weathered in” structural building system, including doors, windows and any elevated wood floors. Beyond this, you would need to add utilities (electrical, plumbing, HVAC), insulation, interior finishes, cabinets, fixtures and floor coverings.
DEAR POLE BARN GURU: Can you bring and build in Indiana? JUSTIN in GREENDALE
DEAR JUSTIN: When the “Storm of the Century” hits, will your building be standing? When it comes to YOUR building, will anything less than America’s STRONGEST design solution suffice?
