Usually ships in 1 business days | | Only 4 left in stock, order soon! | | | This is a serious how-to book for the weekend do-it-yourself home owner wanting to build a garden shed, or the farmer wanting to build a barn, or the urban rehabber wanting to convert a barn into an alternative residence. Wagner and DeKorne start with the basics for planning the project--building the foundation, framing, assessing environmental needs, wiring, plumbing--through finishing the building. However, for those with more conceptual ideas than hands-on skills, this book offers a detailed section on outbuilding designs, plus numerous detailed layouts and color photographs of buildings in various phases of construction. The illustrations, coupled with commentary, provide basic information that anyone wanting to secure the skills of a contractor should know. For do-it-yourselfers and those who hire others to do the work, this book provides the basic information to help both parties realize their desires within code and within their aesthetic and budgetary needs.

 Exactly what I was looking for Aug 17, 2008
This book provides a thorough review of the building techniques that go into constructing a variety of outbuildings, with clear illustrations and very good detail. Following presentation of the techniques, it provides plans for a number of buildings. As a homeowner with intermediate skills, I found this book extremely useful, and I'm looking forward to putting my new skills to work on my new shed.
If you build it - you can store more crap! Jun 24, 2008
I bought this for my Dad when he was building a new lean-to to store his new tractor. He read the thing cover to cover and used it as a guide not only for the lean-to but also for the addition to the garage for his woodworking area.
 Barns Feb 22, 2008
Nicley done, introductory how-to book for those wanting to undertake a barn project themselves. It does not give adequate guidance for sizing your project to meet varying needs. Therefore, you really have to have done your own field investigations to understand what size(s) different functions require, what heights and depths make sense for different equipment, animals, sports uses, etc. Useful, but not as comprehensive in the planning process as it could have been.
