It's great to see em out there with all the proper equipment they need . When we had a portable building put up in our backyard the company sent a guy out to do the foundation work that didn't even know how to lay out a square .
I worked for Morton for a lil while. I used to hate getting up there and screwing down that ribbed steel.. especially on those dewy mornings. That shit is slippery as hell, and there were no scissor lifts when i was there. They do make nice buildings and barns tho, and it was fun working all around Texas. I met plenty of women at all the bars too lol. 😉
awsome! too many of these video's are showing people making one or two mistakes in their garage build videos, which as an engineer, I sorta cringe. (not putting a header, not using enough trusses, not using enough poles, etc. It's great to see a professional job.
Aren't the number of trusses and poles to be used dependent upon the weight of the load and the span to be covered? Are you saying that in some cases the builders are not even using enough trusses and or poles to meet the lowest industry standards? Can you post a link to some examples of poor construction so that I can see which ones to avoid when I choose a builder for my pole building?
When you build with Morton, you get two options for the columns. You can put them in the ground 4+ ft, or bolt them to the foundation. What would you do, and why?
Nice barn, what will it be used for? also I see you have a lot of barns maybe not all yours but from what I understand is your small scale farm with the two John deere a hobby along with the small red pole barn you build or does it belongs to someone els?
is there any difference between the clearly building and the Morton building with regard to critical connections. Such as post to ground, truss to post, purlin to Truss's? THANKS FOR THE EXCELLENT BARN VIDEOS!!
+george poulos Yes the cleary building we built used green treated 2 by 8 in the ground, morton uses a concrete pole in the ground. Both use bolts to attach the trusses to the post which is great and both screw the steel to their building but Morton screws the steel on to the rib and cleary crews to the valley on the steel, the effect is you see the purlins on the cleary when the screws over screw. Also the bird blocking on the back side of the posts with morton is very helpful as cleary doesnt do it. The roof over hang is more true on our morton and hence the gutters hang better also. I like cleary for the cheaper building cost, but if cost isnt issue then use morton with experienced crew
For a morton build, 6 figures for sure. Any other company, around $25 per square foot maximum if the floors are heated and the height of it. So around 70k
i dont know how they attached them though i have never built a barn that way... usually you do solid square poles 40 inches in to the ground and backfill with concrete
this barn... all wood... you cant do that arround here (portugal) without people questioning your mental sainty... i guess they are sturdy enough made like that...
But wood flexes and will hold during an earthquake. Nothing is going to survive an extreme quake like that unless it's engineered as such. And any building designed for that will not be affordable. What a dumb law they have.

Beautiful work!
this makes me want to build a barn
Great looking barn. Awesome time lapse video too!
Cool video!
Great video!
You can't go wrong with a Morton building

+Norman Graham Thanks this barn shop was inspected by county too and approved so many things had to be code=)

flagzau We have three barns currently on this 80 acre farm, and we have four tractors, three balers, and ton on misc equipment=)

Thank you for that info. Any difference on purlin to truss connection?
+george poulos I dont think so all are nailed in with like 8-10 penny nails
How much did it cost. I'm interested in building my own.
nascarstopmotions882 all said I think we are 54k on building and 15k inside
Just curious what company did your concrete
I live in mn I am just curious because that 8 thousand for the concrete is a really good price
Don't forget about the warranty
What is the attachment on the bucket of the tractor that lifts the trusses?
Good time lapse but should have used the benny hill theme song for the music.
I want to build a barn/house combo in which i live. Do you have water and electricity there as well?
Why make a vedio if u won't answer questions?????
How much for this build?
For a morton build, 6 figures for sure. Any other company, around $25 per square foot maximum if the floors are heated and the height of it. So around 70k
He answered that question already, he said 54k for the shell.
how much do I pay for that kind of sized barn
about 60k
What was the cost?
How did the poles attach to the " anchors " they set with cement ? Were the poles round or square ? Thanks
all modern barns have square poles
i dont know how they attached them though i have never built a barn that way... usually you do solid square poles 40 inches in to the ground and backfill with concrete
@@sarge1134 They used pema-columns, these are concrete columns with build in brackets that the 2x6 laminated posts are bolted on to.
Cost?
codyf115 about about 16 square ft
We are having Morton put up a 42x88 next week.
What Timelaps speed did you use ?
VideosByAl We shot at full length HD video and processed with Cyber Video at 80% time lapse compression speed
ReefDVMs Ok, thanks
nice video now you need solar power..
did morton do all the backfill and site prep?
Actually we did it ourselves to help save funds two months in advance to aid in settling
What size is this barn ?
What kind of wood used by Morton buildings ? Can any one inform ?
southern white dried pine I think
Southern yellow pine
this barn... all wood... you cant do that arround here (portugal) without people questioning your mental sainty... i guess they are sturdy enough made like that...
***** cool I didnt know Portugal required steel only frame structures....open here the post frames with concrete footings is very common

If Morton did it, your looking around 100,000.00
"3 PIGS HOUSE..."

andrew blauwet I think the building with out concrete and shop is about 50k

Are you including materials and labor in that 30k price?
