Cool. I have a degree in structural engineering if you need to pass anything by me.

It’s gonna be framed out like a pole-barn/house

Those 6x6’s & 2x12’s aren’t no joke

I’m drilling & bolting everything together with 1/2” & 5/8” carriage bolts

I don’t like notching out the 6x’s.....I’d rather sandwich them with 2x12’s & bolt them & when another 2x12 intersects; the hole drill placement is a different pattern,,,so they don’t touch

Dirt, wood, or concrete floor?

Will do; gonna osb all over when done & vinyl the sides/tar paper & shingle the roof

Still contemplating the 2x’s of perlines & weather I’m going 16 or 24” centers....as the 6x6’s are 8’ on center & 2x12’s will be doubled across & around the top & bottom.
So it shouldn’t blow over

There will be a 16’ span across the doubled 2x12’s....so any input on perlines,joist hangers,etc... will be appreciated
