• All window framing is for 3'x4' double hung windows or windows of your choice.

Shed Roof

• Framed with customer built 2x6 gambrel trusses spaced 24" on center.  I suggest going with engineered 16' wide trusses from a truss manufacturer for purposes of obtaining a building permit.  These trusses will have engineering specs.  I do include truss plans with the blueprints but they will not show load limits etc.

• Loft floor sheeted with 3/4" plywood sheeting but may be 3/4" OSB.
• Over 3' wide stairway up to the loft
  

Getting a permit:

I always recommend getting a building permit with any of my shed plans.  If your building department requires an engineers stamp for the approval of getting a permit, then you will have to submit the plans to a local structural engineer.  I do not provide those calculations with my plans.

Stairway and Loft Framing Details

Included is the stairway and shed loft detail in the 16x20 barn shed plans. This offers a myriad of advantages for maximizing both functionality and space utilization. The addition of a loft provides invaluable extra storage or living space, perfect for keeping seasonal items, tools, or even creating a cozy nook away from the main floor area.
