The estimated cost for the
farmers’ porch is $3,046.21 . All materials were priced at Home Depot. Labor costs or the “in-kind” labor hours have
not been calculated, nor “donations” of any materials allowed for.
The farmers’ porch is also a gable
roof, 12 feet deep and 26 feet long. Representative
drawings are shown at the end of this document.
The drawings were made by 3D Home Architect, so they are representative
in nature and architectural quality.
The construction is based on
conventional construction methods.
The
foundation uses sonotubes filled with concrete.
The is gravel
with a wood perimeter to contain the gravel—the materials lists also show the
costs with a concrete slab for both.
A
double 2x10 rafter girt/top plate is cut into 6x6 posts, 8 feet high with 2x10
rafters on 16 inch centers. The roof is
set on a 5 in 12 pitch.
The
roof is sheathed with ¾ inch plywood sheathing and covered with asphalt
shingles.
The
gable walls are sheathed in vertical shiplap pine.
The
end “walls” of the farmer’s porch has two horizontal rails.
Overhead
lights and GFCI-equipped outlets will be provided on separate circuits for each
shed.
