Experience with steel buildings

[83 5.0]

When my son bought his property, it came with this steel building (it's like half a culvert), and it was open on the ends as the farmer use to store tractors and hay bales in it.
We framed the ends and bought steel siding to put on it. The building is very solid, you can walk on it no problems.

This is a steel building....

This made me smile because I initially read this thinking "wow finding an unfinished multilevel property is a pretty huge oddball thing and undertaking. Did someone really erect the framing package and not close in the structure? Then my brain turned on.

If you're going to be permitted, you're going to need drawings/engineering, etc. Easier to find the complete kit with stamped plans or order the exact ends that come on the stamped plans me thinks. Or you know.....erect it as an accessory structure without the ends if possible, maybe thats get signed off, maybe walls appear one day?

turns out it is a complete kit. has a back wall but not a front (ordered that way) complete with drawings and info from the manufacture.

Sounds like it is time to start digging a hole for a pad

Yes just torn On spending money on a temp structure that will work for now or just saying duck it and building the drive shed I want and be done with it.

I mean if I’m gonna spend 20k might as well spend 80 right?

this is what I thought as well when I thought steel. Engineers think alike.
