Car Barn Permit Submitted
BIG day for me tomorrow, i am finally submitting my plans to the town to build my car barn after over a year of planning. The barn will be a hybrid post n beam and stick built, heavily insulated with radiant heat in the slab. I plan to be able to store 5 cars and have a separate mechanical area in the rear left corner
I apologize for the double post
I posted this on the general discussion section originally but later realized everyone I know is from the 993 forum and may not venture over there
Wish me luck with the town

With a track record like that ^^ I'm sure your town will approve of this project

Your plans look good however I would make the following changes.
I would look at increasing the slab thickness to 6" reinforced especially under the work/parking bays. This would be best for securing bolts for car lifts etc. Show control joint locations so to minimize cracking.
Provide either continuous trench drain or other means of draining water off of floor.
If budget allows run hydronic in slab heat system.
Provide separate acoustically separated room for air compressor.
Overhead power cord and pneumatic hose reels keeps the floor clear.
Run enough data outlets so that you can plug laptops and Webtv flat panels.
