Can I make a building larger then the plans are designed for?

Shed Plans in Gable, Barn & Saltbox styles
Yes, sometimes. Because in many cases we don't use the standard truss system and because of local code requirements, we suggest you check with an engineer first. You can make a building longer or shorter without having any effect on the structure or snow load. If you desire to make a building wider then you should check with an engineer.

Can I make a building smaller then the plans are designed for?

Shed Plans in Gable, Barn & Saltbox styles
We believe you can always make a building smaller than the plan design. If you like the style, but the building is too big, it is easy to shorten the side walls or to narrow the front and back. If you downsize a building, don't forget to change your end and birdmouth cuts. The full size rafter cutout is for the stated building size.
