This old welder/friend of mine used to say ‘that’s exactly how I’d do it too, if I didn’t know what I was doing’ and laugh as we drank a beer 😂😂😂😂. Shit still standing 100 years from now 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

We contacted Chris, contractor, to built a rear carport. From the beginning Chris and his crew were an absolute delight. Very professional, honest, deliver quality craftsmanship at a reasonable cost & time estimate was perfect. We are ecstatic with the final product & must say that the whole experience, from start to finish, was excellent. Highly recommed Born to Built for all your construction projects & looking forward to our next project. Thank you John & Carmen

This is awesome however, it would have been nice if you went over all the details such as was it bolted or welded, the size of the metal and why you chose that, why the roof structure is not attached or resting over the 4 supporting beams…etc It will help so many rookies like me. Awesome work.

This looks awesome for sure. I plan on using 6" C Purlins instead of rectangular tubes on my build as they are bought locally.

I'm collaborating with a project manager and a construction contractor in Eastern Europe on a carport project very similar to this one. It's made entirely of box steel columns (4 inch square) and joists, with columns securely embedded in concrete footings. During a windy spell reaching 60 mph, I noticed some structural sway when we were on the roof, which is currently plywood, but will be topped with terracotta tiles adding to some fears I have about the center of gravity. In a light-hearted moment, I exaggerated the swaying by pretending to surf. However, the seriousness of the issue became apparent to me, even though not everyone found it amusing. Despite initial reservations from the project manager and contractor, I firmly believe I need to insist on adding diagonal bracing for added stability, especially without solid walls. These braces will be positioned at 45-degree angles and adequately spaced between joist columns to ensure rigidity. Would love to hear everyone's thoughts!

Hell yeah , good job boys that looks amazing !!!🎉

Excellent. Well done. Would love if you showed more details of the construction. Specifically if you welded anything or used bolts. Thanks.

Let’s get real. How much does it cost?

I would of liked to see more support to the structure. I am planning to build on facing the north winds.

What wall thickness and tube side are all your headers?

How do you decide the footing size, for the steel ground posts?

I'm curious what this cost?

How did you join things together? Bolts?

Is just fine to burry the columns instead of using anchor bolt method?

Is it sloped to the front? What does something like this cost?

how much does it cost all of the steel mate ?

I have a 2 car garage but I also have a deck over my garage. How would this be able to be done? And I would want some kind of gutter system on mine. Do you have that kind of system?

Pretty sure the screws holding the roof decking down should not be in the troughs where the water will flow over them. When the screw gaskets get old , they will leak.

@@David-ky7bm it is not correct. That method may be manufacturers recommendation, but it is only to make roof more securely fastened. Manufacturer is looking out for themselves and not interested in roof leaking after screws/gaskets age. You cannot put 1000 holes in steel under water and expect it not to eventually leak.
