Doug Steidl’s project is now complete. Now it’s on to Michael and Amy Vearrier’s new “Super Shop”.  We would like to send a special thanks to Michael and Amy for giving us the opportunity to build their new shop.  The photos below show the procedure for clearing the land, shooting elevations and site prep for the new pole structure.

Another successful week on Doug Steidl's shop. Here are some photos of the procedure for excavation and compaction for the concrete portion of the shop.

We always tie posts in with #4 re-bar.

We use a stitch nail procedure on all of our buildings that have a concrete slab.
