Looks good Donny! Showed it to Stephanie and she asked why couldn't ours ended up that straight!! If i told her once i've told her a dozen times...
"If i built everything perfect, everybody would want me to help them build something and i would spend all my time trying to please other people and have no time to spend with you."
She then replied... "well if it means haveing a straight barn i can make sacrifises...."
Guess i need to learn when to shut up.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!

Donny looks great I love that style barn. You are doing a fine job on it
Me and my brother are looking a building a small 18x24 gambral roof barn on the 80 acers my dad just bought last year which is adjoining the 40 me and dad have. We plan on having two garage doors on the ground floor. So we can drive in one side and out the other. Up stairs we will have a kitchen and a bunk room. The other two houses on the farm are too nice to stay in when we are working I call them "show houses. One is my uncles and the others is my cousins. All together our family has 480 acers in one piece. Dad also has a wood mizer sawmill and we are going to cut all the lumber for it off our property.
My friend Gerold has this barn with a oppen rafter desigine that I had never seen before. It actully uses less wood that a truss. He built it from a 30+ year old book on barn design which he lent us since it has the sizes and deminsions and angles for building the rafters for different size buildings his is a 36' span. Its pretty cool so I am posting a picture of it.

Hey Bill
I just tried to look it up and it does not mension snow load. The book is dated 1972. And talks about using asbestos cement for a sealer around the beems Wow. You don't see building like that anymore. I do not even think modern designers know about this stuff anymore. All the new stuff uses a modifed truss that eats up you interior room. The original design called for planking the roof and shingles which is a lot heaver than the tin roof. That barn has been up for ten years now in mighigans UP where they get eight foot of snow or more a year. His 36' span calls for a 16' lower rafter six to seven pitch and the upper one 11'6" is four to twelve. He says with the tin the snow never sticks to it just be carfull and stay away the sides. You might have problems in a ice storm but his is doing fine.

Bill and Billy:
With a Gambrel roof, one of the nice things is that there is very little snow load to factor in. Because of the design, snow really has no place to accumulate. Also, because snow tends to flow off of steeply pitched roofs, this is one of the reasons Gambrel roofs have been used for what a century or so in North Americal for barns and other large structures.
