How I gave my pole barn a nice insulated interior in a budget.
Insulating and finishing the interior of a pole barn garage/workshop. It is now 5 year sold, and has held up well. An easy to assemble greenhouse kit that has proven to be durable in high winds and heavy snow. If you can find a used system, like I did, it will pay for itself in only a few years. This has performed far beyond my expectations, even in winter. Other topics that I have that may be of interest:Ī solar hot water heater. To tar or not is determined by how wet your ground is. However, I have a "backbone" made from a 2x4 running along the top, and 2 rows of plywood rectangles fitted in between my wood arches. His wood arches are on 16 inch centers, while mine are on 24 inch centers. However, his ceiling was much higher than mine, and his 96 inch supports would be more prone to bending under the load than my 65 inch supports. my 4,000 pounds, therefore his supports were holding only 250 pounds each, while mine were holding 670 pounds. He was very conservative and used 28 vertical supports. He used a higher arch, which is something I would do if I had to do it all over again, for condensation does not readily run to the sides of my flatter arch. Here is a picture of a very similar cellar. I felt that digging the entire stairwell to the floor level would have just created a large inaccessible space. To save labor and materials, I built the stairway with half of it on a foundation at the floor level, and the other half of the foundation just below the frost line. One of the two 4 inch vents can be seen in the corner. Currently we are storing apples, carrots and potatoes, and we are pleased with the results.

The arched ceiling is as glossy as a counter top, thanks to the plastic sheet I laid over the plywood. The radius of the top arch is about 6 inches larger than below. It was not difficult creating the arch in the top using standard concrete. The seams are nearly invisible from below, and are waterproof. I poured the roof in 3 sections, for that is the most concrete I can handle working alone. They will be part of the reinforcement for the entrance-way. The wood at the rear is covering the ends of the rebar to prevent injury.
