Tiny barns
You’ve heard of the tiny house? Well, here’s the tiny barn. High-quality natural materials, solidly constructed, and big enough for all kinds of projects and uses. The single-bay tiny barn is 8 feet by 12 feet. The double-bay barn is 12 feet by 20 feet. Made with timber-frame floor system, plank floor, and rough-sawn board siding and roof sheathing. Standing seam metal roofing. Call us to discuss!
Single-bay tiny barn
Simple, sturdy, small. This design is all about economy. The use of a single metal tension rod at the plate level allows the use of smaller dimension timbers. 10/12 roof pitch leaves room for loft storage. Add a window and make it a summer guest cabin or studio.
Double-bay tiny barn
This design is adapted from the frame detailed in Jack Sobon’s book Timber Frame Construction. A footprint of 12 by 20 gives 240 square feet, and a low half-loft can easily be added. Short knee walls and a 12/12 roof pitch offer lots of space in the loft. A person door and/or sliding door can be added on the gable end or along a long wall.
Carport
Keep the snow and ice off your rig with a carport. Hang a canoe from the rafters. Store tools and other gear out of the rain. This design borrows from the Japanese timber-framing tradition, using a second horizontal in the long direction rather than diagonal bracing. Design also includes concealed steel angle brackets where the posts join the plates. Clear opening is 9 feet wide and 8 feet high. Overall covered area is 14 feet by 18 feet. 3/12 roof pitch minimizes wind-blown snow and rain. Standing seam metal roofing is ready for solar panels. Footing options depend on the ground at your site. Call us to discuss! (Final engineering pending.)
