New Workshop Started

We are just beginning construction on a workshop at the end of our driveway. It will be a 12′ x 20′ workshop to start. We will add an 8′ x 20′ room along the left side to bring the building up to 20′ x 20′.

The building will rest on 10″ square concrete piers dug down 3 feet. Situated on the piers are 6″ x 6″ pressure treated timbers attached to the piers with anchor bolts which were set into the concrete at key points.

Cutting the timber for half lap joints. An anchor bolt is visible on the front pier.
Floor joists installed. Now they need to treated with Boric acid & Borax spray.
