Hi Guys-
Since I'm almost finished building my run in shed and am planning my horse barn now I'm looking for photos or plans of pole barn lofts and how to frame them.
My barn is going to be 36x48 with typical 12' pole spacing. I was thinking about using scissor trusses to increase loft ceiling hieght. I was thinking of running a 2x12 band a few feet down my posts and running 2x10 floor joists parallel to the 36' wall. Is this how most people do it? will a single 2x12 be sufficient to support the floor load?
Anyone with pole barn loft framing photos or plans I would be thrilled to see them.
Thanks,
Josh
