The 6′ x 20′ covered area doubles the protected area for your livestock. You can view more information about building this run in shed by visiting the horse barn plans page or our icreatables.com website. The design of this horse barn uses 4×4 posts set on top of the 6×6 rails. In between the 4×4 posts the walls are framed using 2×4 girt boards. The siding is simple to use 4×8 textured plywood with 1×2 battens over it to give it a real barn feel. The roof trusses are to be designed and built by a local truss plant. This makes the roof construction much easier to build.

The plans include details and materials list showing how to install the posts into the ground or to pour concrete piers and attach the post bases to the concrete using post bases. So depending on your local frost and building department requirements you will have the option to build it either way. Check out the plans to build the 8×12 Run In Shed. The plans come with a materials list that you can use to get an accurate price from a local lumber yard or home store. So get ready to build and give your animals a place of their own out of the elements that they can easily move in and out of when they want!

Over the next few weeks we will show the construction of our most popular generator shed plan. This design features simple construction techniques that keep it low in cost and easy to build. Three doors allow plenty of access to service your generator. The double front doors open to provide a 4′-4″ x 3′-2 1/2″ opening. The roof lifts up on rear hinges to allow access to the top of the generator. The roof may be permanently attached to further simplify construction. This shed will keep your generator safe and dry so it is ready to run when you need it.

Be sure to check back soon. We will keep the posts and explain a bit of the generator shed enclosure construction process.

The modern shed gets its name from the contemporary architectural lines of the shed design that give it a modern look. Its simple single plane roof, addition of windows and industrial looking use of siding come together to create a shed that looks like a professional office space.

Uses for the modern shed include everything from a nice looking storage shed to yoga or art studio to office or even a spare bedroom. The way the interior is finished largely depends on how it will be used.

The exterior architectural features of the modern shed start with the lean to shed plan because of its low sloping single plane roof. The generous use of windows opens the shed to the outside making the inside feel larger and bright. A door with large amount of glass is often used to increase the light inside the shed as well as add to the professionalism making it more like a commercial office space. Picking and using a siding that conveys an industrial look will tie the exterior facade together.

So if you are looking for a shed design with a contemporary flair the modern shed is the perfect solution.
