 ====== Workshop ======
+Notes for my investigation into building a workshop.
+===== NEW PLAN =====
+{{ :workshop_render.png?nolink|}}
-Notes for my investigation into building a workshop.
+Sticking with the poured concrete foundation, which will cost between $2,700 and $3,600 for a 24x31 area.
-====== Design ======
+The building itself will be from [[http://www.choicemetal.com/custom-builder|Choice Metal Buildings]].
-I've been struggling with the structural design somewhat--namely, how to support the roof over such a large open area.
+The walls are 12-feet tall, with a 25'x 30' layout. A single 10'w x 8'h garage door will be the only entrance and exit.
-I found a [[http://www.behmdesign.com/Garage-Plan-748-2-22x34.aspx|garage design]] that's actually larger than my workshop. The answer does seem to be pre-engineered roof trusses. I've made an inquiry for an estimate to a local truss company.
+A pair of 30'x30' windows fill flank the garage door.
-  * Poured concrete foundation
+The inside will be still be framed, but that's for mounting electrical and other internal structures (built in desks and shelves).
-  * Pressure treated studs and plywood
-  * Shed Roof with eave fans at the higher end
-  * Barn Door
-  * Power fed from mains
-  * Several sets of fluorescent light fixtures
-  * Air conditioner (14K BTU needed)
-  * Box fans with fiberglass filters for dust control
-===== NEW PLAN =====
+  * Air Conditioner (18K BTU needed)
-Sticking with the poured concrete foundation, which will cost between $2,700 and $3,600 for a 24x31 area.
+===== Location =====
-The main structure will be this: http://store.alansfactoryoutlet.com/24x31-vertical-roof-metal-garage-p/24x31-vertical-metal-garage.htm
+Where do I put this dang thing?
-The inside will be still be framed, but that's for mounting electrical and other internal structures (built in desks and shelves).
+About here? (The little legs touching the corners mark 5'--the closest an accessory structure may be built to a property line.)

-====== Regulations ======
+===== Deployment =====
+==== Phase 1: Land Prep ====
-===== Permits =====
+**DONE**
-Per http://durhamnc.gov/ich/cb/ccid/Pages/Accessory.aspx:
+The area where the workshop is going to go needs to be prepped. All the cedar trees need to be taken down. Stumps need to be dug out and removed. Any smaller woody plants need to be removed. The land needs to be leveled and raised a little.
-A building permit is required to place or build an accessory structure (i.e. storage building, detached carport, garage, pool house, etc.) on your property.
+Consult with some guides on prepping land for a slab.
-Certain items are required to obtain a building permit for an accessory building, the first of which is two copies of your site plan. A site plan is an illustration on paper showing the shape of your lot, the relative location of your house  within this lot perimeter, and the intended location of the accessory structure you are going to place on your lot. An easy way to arrive at a site plan is to run two copies of an existing survey, which you may have in your bank mortgage info, and simply draw in the intended building location.
-If the accessory building is 144 square feet or less and less than 12 feet in length on any side, then the only other thing you must do to obtain a permit is to fill out an application and submit it with the two site plan copies. If the building is greater than 12 feet length on a side, then two copies of structural drawings must also be submitted. These drawings do not have to be prepared by an engineer or architect, but must be accurate and meet NC State Building Code for structural requirements. Do-It-Yourself books purchased in building material stores may be helpful, but are not necessarily written to meet local code requirements.
+==== Phase 2: Permits ====
-===== Setback Requirements =====
+File paperwork with city and get permits.
-Per http://durhamnc.gov/ich/cb/ccpd/Documents/Old%20Zoning%20Ordinance/Zoning%20Ordinance_Section%207.pdf
+==== Phase 3: Slab ====
-.2 Accessory Buildings and Structures
+**DONE**
-Accessory buildings and structures, not including accessory dwellings (See Section 7.3 (1)), shall be subject to the following additional requirements:
+Have the slab poured.
-.The building shall not be located in any front yard. The only exception shall be when the lot is over 2 acres in size, in which case the building may be located in front but not in the required front yard.
+==== Phase 4: Building Erection ====
-.The building shall not be located in any required side yard space, and accessory buildings in the Residential 5 (R-5) shall be no closer than 3 feet to any property line. Accessory buildings in the remaining zones shall be no closer than 5 feet to any property line. Any accessory buildings located less than 5 feet from the property line shall construct a wall meeting North Carolina Building Code Standards for fire obstruction on that side of the building facing the property line.
+<del>Choice Metal Buildings delivers and erects buildings purchased through them.</del>
-.Accessory buildings in the rear or side yards of corner lots whose rear or side yards are adjacent to a front yard of the adjacent lot, shall maintain a setback equivalent to the required front yard setback of the adjacent lot and outside the required rear yard of the lot where the accessory building is to locate.
+Order placed through Alan's Factory Outlet.
-.In residential areas the height of an accessory building shall not exceed 15 feet when the building is within 10 feet of the property line.
+==== Phase 5: Framing ====
-.No accessory building shall be utilized unless the primary structure is also utilized.
+Wood studs will be put in to support shelves and allow for easier addition of wiring as well as insulation.
-.If an accessory building is structurally attached to the primary structure by a wall or roof, it shall be deemed a part of the primary structure.
+==== Phase 6: Power ====
-===== Slab =====
+Have Duke Power come out and add a power hook up to the building. This will take some research. I'm not sure if it's better to have power ran from the house out to the building (unlikely) or have a separate meter installed for the work shop (likely best option).
-Per [[http://ecodes.biz/ecodes_support/free_resources/2012NorthCarolina/Building/PDFs/Chapter%2019%20-%20Concrete.pdf|NC building code]] table 1904.3, slab must have compressive strength of at least 3000  PSI.
+Research is needed to see what must be done before they'll install a meter. This will also take some city-permits.
-====== Cost Estimates ======
+Standard 3-prong electric outlets will be installed at a rather high density (perhaps 1 outlet ever 3 feet?) as well as overhead florescent lights.
-===== Slab Foundation =====
+Along with running power, a few cat-5e cables could be ran from the house to the workshop for network connectivity as well as other communication (e.g. analaog audio).
-This [[http://www.homewyse.com/services/cost_to_install_cement_slab.html|cost calculator]] estimates the cost of the 750 sqft of slab to be about $2,536.93
-===== Framing =====
+==== Phase 7: Insulation ====
-Assuming 25' x 30', that would mean 110 linear feat of wall. 1 stud every 16 inches is 82 studs, not taking into account door space.
+Spray foam insulation can be added (once all wiring is done)
-At $3.37 per stud for a pressure treated stud, that's $276.34 (plus tax) for studs.
+==== Phase 8: Floor ====
-===== Sheathing =====
+Something a little nicer than raw concrete would be nice, even if it's just a paint and fleck kit: http://www.epoxymaster.com/index.php/store/category/decorative-fleck-non-slip/product/116-custom-decorative-fleck-create-your-own-pattern
-There will be 1210 sqft of vertical surfaces. a 4'x8' sheet of 7/16" OSB is $7. A minimum (extra, of course, for odd-shapes and waste) of 38 sheets will be needed at a cost of $266.
+I could do a NC dogwood in Filipino sun.
-The same OSB is appropriate for roof sheathing. There will be 864 sqft of roof. 27 sheets will be need for a cost of $189.
+==== Phase 9: Built-in Shelves and Desks ====
+Build some shelves out of studs and plywood.
-===== Wrap =====
+Or.
-3' x 100' rolls of house-wrap will be needed for a total cost of $144.85
+Buy some welding gear and some square tube stock and practice welding by making shelves and desks.
+====== Regulations ======
-===== Roof Underlayment =====
-Two rolls of [[http://www.lowes.com/pd_10306-31673-NO.15+FELT_4294858150__?productId=3069785&Ntt=roof&pl=1&currentURL=%3FNtt%3Droof&facetInfo=|underlayment]] at a total cost of $33.80
+===== Permits =====
+Per http://durhamnc.gov/ich/cb/ccid/Pages/Accessory.aspx:
-===== Shingles =====
+A building permit is required to place or build an accessory structure (i.e. storage building, detached carport, garage, pool house, etc.) on your property.
-One box of [[http://www.lowes.com/pd_12914-278-PM04_0__?productId=3010804&Ntt=shingles&Ns=p_product_price|shingles]] covers 33.33 sqft and costs $24.75. 26 boxes will be needed for a total cost of $643.50
+Certain items are required to obtain a building permit for an accessory building, the first of which is two copies of your site plan. A site plan is an illustration on paper showing the shape of your lot, the relative location of your house  within this lot perimeter, and the intended location of the accessory structure you are going to place on your lot. An easy way to arrive at a site plan is to run two copies of an existing survey, which you may have in your bank mortgage info, and simply draw in the intended building location.

+.2 Accessory Buildings and Structures
-===== Running Total =====
+Accessory buildings and structures, not including accessory dwellings (See Section 7.3 (1)), shall be subject to the following additional requirements:
-.93 + 276.34 + 266 + 189 + 144.85 + 33.80 + 643.50 = **4090.42**
