You can design any pitch to work with different loading. I can make a flat roof work with snow loads but I get your point. But just so people know, live and dead loads are one thing and the way you design the shape of the roof is another thing. You just can't change the pitch and make it work. You have to specify the design load then design the framing to match the loading and so the pitch is not necessarily related to the design loads. Thanks!

Very well done. As a builder you nailed it 😀

This week I just put half the roof on a single 40' container. I used 16' 2x8s coming from the center of the roof out 12' (using 4' for above the container). This creates a 11' overhang (1' eve) on both sides of the container. I used about 1' drop in 10' for slope. The one thing that stuck out to me on your design was the 4x4 bolted to the roof. My container did not have 3.5" before the ribbed roof got in the way. I welded 3" angle iron sticking up 6" to bolt the rafters to. I needed to grind 60% of the to allow for the upward dents in the roof. Did you need to adjust for that? Thanks, great video.

What about garaging of taller vehicles, like a tall camper? Make at least 6 or 8/12 and cut it off at the inside. Then bolt/add the top of rafters to continue the expanse to roof tip, after first one, copy and pre build so that the lower joists are not needed. I mean, build a vaulted roof for taller equipment.

So for those people questioning this; (like silly canadians) this was designed specifically for a customer of mine who I mentioned several times during the video so if you have a project it will have to be designed for your own particular site.

In areas of significant snow load, what is maximum pitch you recommend for roof over two 40’ containers. 6/12?

@ArtisanTony

as long as you follow the design guidelines for low slope rafters in the span tables, you should be fine. Look at southern pine span tables for example and low slop rafters and snow loading. You can go as low as you want with the proper rafter and spacing. But yes, 6/12 is a nice slope for any application. Check this link out www.awc.org/codes-standards/calculators-software/spancalc

I'm in São Paulo, Brazil, your project may be a less costly solution for me. I need to build a house / shed in a small rural area. How much would you spend if you did exactly the same thing?

Place the shipping containers in place. Bolt on a wood top plate on the inside. Attach joist hangers to the top plate. Then screw in joists between the containers. Then cover with corrugated steel. Then build a simple stud back wall. On the front add a roll up garage door and an exterior door. I can then add insulation and cover with 1/2 plywood. Would this work for a work shop? Would a flat roof work? I feel in a heavy rain. The excess water would run off. Then the rest would evaporate. What are your thoughts? A lot of people live in areas where it never snows.

Thanks! This was for a military use where they only had 16' - 2" x 6"'s so for 16' material, 14' between the containers. But if you want to use manufactured trusses there would be only the limit of the trusses. I guess practically speaking, I would limit it to no more than 20' between them. Again, it depends on a few factors. If you make this huge roof, you are going to have to make sure the containers are secured to the ground and the trusses are secured to the containers or a decent wind will take it away for you :)

if it's for vehicle maintenance, than having a front and back wall should be mandatory, that way they can shield themselves from the wind for spray painting or adding insulation so they can work cool in the summer and warm in the winter. I do my own car work and learning how to paint so having all the walls would be important to me, also to deter thieves, I mean seriously having all your tools open for people to take makes no sense

This building as shown here would not meet Canadian building codes. However similar structures have been built in Canada (Alberta specifically, probably other places too) that do comply. The shipping containers need to be on a foundation extending to below frost line (concrete footings or screw piles, for example.) Roof structure needs to meet all the usual requirements for fastening, bracing, wind/snow loads, seismic, ventilation, etc. Pre-Engineered roof trusses would be a much better alternative here than stick framing. Some jurisdictions may require an Engineer's involvement since it involves some steel (welding connections for the roof anchoring.)
