    Pole Barns Basics - what to do, what to avoid

    We just bought a new home, which has a one-year-old 30 x 40 pole barn. The seller did not provide much information about the pole barn. It has a poured concrete floor, which was done after the town inspector signed off on the place. Based on some reading on TBN, this could be an "Alaskan...
