I am finally going to build a much needed garage as right now all I got is a 10x20 Portable Garage with a pea gravel floor.
Our 1.5 acre property does not have a patch if level ground anywhere and the back half borders a "wetland" that I cannot build 300 feet from.
With these limitations I am going to have to build either far away from the house. Not the best as running underground electric service will be difficult with all the ledge. Or choose from 3 small areas that will need excavating and be built up to get level.
Garage needs to be able to store 2 cars and it would be nice to have area
the '66 Ford 4500TLB could be pulled in and worked on. Even if it meant parking the hoe first, it would be nice to be able to split it inside.
The rear tires are filled as far as I know. The was what prior owner told me.
What I am wondering about is how thick of reinforced concrete do I spec for the bay that the tractor would go in? To be on the safe side I would think ability to support 10K lbs?
Link to some plans/designs.
Plan #1512-1 was one I like. It is shown as 40'x 40' but I do not need it that deep as I do not have a RV.
