Cute Young Brunette Girl Outside At The Old Pole Barn

The walls of a pole building are normally built using 6×8 or 6×6 pressure treated posts. For a standard snow load of 40 to 50 pounds, the posts are spaced evenly from 8' to 12' apart down both sidewalls. Posts on the end walls are normally spaced to allow for doors and provide framing for the walls. The walls are connected using a girt system of 2×6 dimensional lumber normally spaced 24" apart up the outside of the posts connecting them together. Other girt systems include framing in between the posts rather than on the outer side of the posts.
Siding materials for a pole building are most commonly rolled-rib 29-gauge enameled metal cut to length in 32" or 36" widths attached using color-matched screws with rubber washers to seal the holes. However, any standard siding can be used, including T1-11, vinyl, lap siding, cedar, and even brick. Using sidings other than metal may require first installing sheeting, such as CDX, OSB, or Plywood.
