I have one of those smaller canvas covered carports. Mine only lasted about two years before the Kansas wind absolutely destroyed the fabric. I also have that same roofing metal in 22 foot sheets. After the wind destroyed the original cover, I considered putting that metal roofing on the tube structure. I'm glad I just happened to run across your video, because now I'm definitely going to do it.

appreciate the video-ingenuity inspires ideas-gonna go with a versatube frame-sheet it myself-i hate wet wood-tired of buying tarps-glad i came across your video

@sidmorgan4980 Год назад

I have 20x24 and same pins in gravel pad. I had to drive steel post in each corner and connect with chain bolted to the tubing. The wind came up one night and skid steer bucket and tractor bucket held it down over night. It had been lifting up a good 18 inches

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

Sounds like you’re lucky you didn’t lose it. That’s why I added the louver to the back of mine. I took a video of the Louvers working on a very windy day and it helped a ton. I know when I had to move mine to get the driveway resurfaced and I couldn’t get it nailed back down right away I did the same thing and used my fork lift and wheel loader to hold it down for the night.

@littleridgefarm4073 Год назад

These carports are nice .. I love my metal building and how I closed in the ends

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

It looks like you did a fine job! When I do the shelter logic I decided that I am going to completely enclose it so I won’t need louvers in the back, but I like the way you built your walls.👍🏻

Depending on size steel studs can go as thick as 10ga with a G90 coating. Hell, they build houses and apartment building with them (floors and walls). You are correct in the you need shear support and bracing for loads.

@MikeSmith-nu9wt Год назад

I built one to cover my 12k truck lift hoist , it was 15'3" at the peak , 20 x 20 , the hurricane beat it into the ground , twisted it up , and threw it over the house and service wire , right in my scrape steel pile , stuck the trusses sideways up a tree , 20 ft up the tree ..

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

Glad we don’t get hurricanes! 😅 a couple of years ago we got some straight line winds that cleared a heavily wooded area very close to the carport and it did good but obviously that doesn’t last as long as a hurricane.

@stevenbryant6436 Год назад

I’ve done the same with 2 shelter logic hoops my oldest is 10 years and still standing just fine

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

That’s great! I kinda took a chance on this one because I didn’t know if it would survive or not. There’s not much info out there about doing this.

@Tailss1 Год назад

Interesting. I have one of those shelter logic hoop sheds and the fabric covering failed - the UV from the sun killed it. I kept the frame thinking I could do something like this, now I know how, thanks xD.

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

I’ve seen guys screw 2x4 boards across the hoops on the outside and then overlay the metal on the boards. I could see this working fine but I didn’t do it because I figured it would just be another point if failure and would cost more. I am very surprised with how this has held up. Just be sure to brace one side like I did or it can be a little flimsy, that bracing made all the difference in stiffening the structure up.👍🏻

@Tailss1 Год назад

@@beesprojects2692 I will pour a pad of concrete under mine and anchor it down - concrete is the one thing that hasn't gone up in price (yet - knock on wood) where I live. I will close in the back like what you did as well.

@chrismiesner6973 Год назад

Love it

@Mr.Frost181 3 месяца назад

Do you have both of them mounted into the ground so that it won't move with strong winds

@beesprojects2692 3 месяца назад

Yes, the big one has 5/8 re-rod stakes 2 feet long, 5 on each side, and then the back wall is lag bolted down to the asphalt. The small one is cable tied to screw anchors at all 4 corners.

@Mr.Frost181 3 месяца назад

@@beesprojects2692 oh alright just wanted to know if you can mount them down some kinda way cause I saw a nice one on Amazon for around 1k and I wanna buy that just so I can close it all in with a working door and all that so I can parku antique car inside there and perhaps have enough space to work around inside there

@michaelblew6019 Год назад

What kind of anchors used,planning on gravel base

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

Hurricane anchors.

I am a new diyer. I am trying to figure how did you attach the metal frames to the top of the metal frame of carport when building back wall and at bottom? Do you have a video of you building this ? This is exactly how I would want to close my carport. I currently only have half sides and no back or front

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

I used Phillips head self drilling screws to attach the metal studs to the carport frame and also used the self drilling screws to attach the metal studs to each other to build the wall. 👍

@genevievecadet4956 Год назад

@@beesprojects2692 thank you so much. I couldn’t tell

@casadecostilla4368 3 дня назад

Great video. My question is the metal studs in the back wall how did u attach to frame at the top. U say u used screws but how and did u cut the metal studs at angle?

@Mopargirl1980 4 месяца назад

Where did you end up getting your sheet metal from?

@beesprojects2692 4 месяца назад

I got it when I bought the kit at Menards.👍 If I ever build another one I will go to a local sheet metal place and have it made in one piece. It’s cheaper and won’t have to seal where the sheets join.

@Mopargirl1980 4 месяца назад

@beesprojects2692 you mentioned the harbor freight structure you bought the 21 ft panels because it was a tarp structure, you got the metal for that one also at menards?

@beesprojects2692 4 месяца назад

No I got the panels for the other one from a local supplier that makes it and cuts it to length. Both the two car and tarp one were from Menards. I am sure you could do this with the harbor freight model but the crossmembers are further apart of the harbor freight ones and may need more reinforcement.

How much was the asphalt?

@beesprojects2692 Месяц назад

The asphalt grindings were $17 a ton at the time I bought them and it was $100 for each dump truck to run. I want to say each dump truck could hold 16 or 17 ton. So that would have been about $275 per delivery.

@robertworth8079 Год назад

where did you get the 20ft lengths of metal panels ?

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

There is a roll form company near me that only sells this type of metal and charges by the foot. 👍

@jefferykeeper9034 Год назад

Try Home Depot on the metal.

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

Thanks for the tip! Luckily, We have a local business that roll forms and cuts steel to length to whatever we need.

@jimpie231 Год назад

Why didn’t you choose a post frame building like a 24x24x8’ for like $7k, todays price, probably cheaper in 2019, that would have closed in everything?

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

Mostly because this was a short term solution. Eventually it will move to store my equipment and I will build a garage starting where the black top ends behind the carport. 👍

@janeblogs324 Год назад

I just can't believe how expensive steel is in America. 1/3 the price in Ausfalia if you ring around. We have a steel supplier in every suburb

@beesprojects2692 Год назад

@@janeblogs324 when I bought the paneling it cost me $75 per 20 foot long sheet. That is pretty standard here. My brother put a new roof on his house with metal and he paid about the same before 2019.
