Amherst NH Garage starting to take shape

Yesterday Jeremiah and Tyler (not pictured) started building the garage in Amherst NH.  This addition will be a garage on the first floor and a family room on the second floor.  The guys did the framing and built the walls for the first floor in one day, amazing!!!  Today we are waiting for the floor trusses/joist to be delivered so they can lay the foundation for the second story.  The reason we are using floor trusses so there is no need for lally columns in the garage.  These floor trusses are engineered beams to ensure they can provide the correct carrying weight for the second floor, amazing this type of technology!

This past Spring we built a stand alone, detached, garage in Merrimack NH to have a loft/storage space above, that addition came out beautiful!!
