Metal Building for Camp
Posted on 4/4/16 at 10:24 pm

Would anyone who's built out the interior of a steel framed metal building share their experience with it? Looking at all options for building a 1500 sq/ft camp on pilings. Wondering if the steel building route is cheaper or about the same in the end. Also, are there any moisture/mold issues you have to worry about?

Marsh camp?

I've been wanting to do this for a house.
There is a great example on rosedale road halfway between Rosedale and Port Allen.

metal buildings are erected on a slab

I know a family who did this and built out the interior themselves. From what he told me, it goes together fairly simply but you'll need willing help.
Not sure on exact cost, but I think it was considerably cheaper.

Personally I havent done this but have designed many a metal building that was turned into living space. Its rather simple really. Erect the metal building and finish it out on the inside with your stud walls against the perlins. Box out around the metal beams and throw up a ceiling. Whaalaa

As long as you do a typical construction for this, no issues should arise.

From what I found looking into it you aren't saving any cost doing this.

Good a place to ask as any.
What do y'all think of pole barns vs metal frame for a backyard shop? No saltwater involved
