...inspector said the structure as it stands is sound, but that the plans will need to reflect the the changes I made before he can permit the building. Unfortunately the engineer who wrote the attached plans is no longer available to make those changes. The most significant deviations I made are 1) I did not notch the poles where the trusses land and instead used carriage bolts through the truss and pole, 2) The truss ends meet the pole not at the bottom chord/rafter junction, but roughly 1 foot toward the center of the bottom chord, then carriage bolts were placed through both the bottom chord and rafter. A picture of this will explain much better if you are interested. In summary, I am need of a new pole barn plan to reflect the changes I made on a structure that is al...
