The Finished Project

Barn Demolition 1


The section of barn between the shedrow (on the left, where the horse stalls are to be constructed) and the hay barn (on the right) was to be dismantled. This was to open up the space, and provide recycled lumber for the stall construction. This area will eventually be used to house a covered roundpen, but the existing pole architecture didn't provide usable floor space for riding.


The first step was to remove the sheets of metal roofing material.

Now that the purlins were exposed, it was time to start removing them.
