Construction of Barns & Other Buildings with Stud Wall Framing
By using a regular stud-wall construction, we have the ability to convert any of our barns into a residential type building. Such a building may be used as a regular home, car garage or any other structure desired. This type of construction is more expensive due to the use of block wall foundation and different wall framing, but offers more options and flexibility for interior finish.
