24×24 Shed Roof Outbuilding

Our 24 × 24 Shed‑Roof Outbuilding does it all. The  footprint gives you 576 sq ft to park vehicles, run power tools, or outfit cozy guest quarters. At the standard 3:12 pitch the ceiling tops out at 16 ft 3 in, but we also supply 4:12 and 5:12 roof‑pitch options. Go steeper to gain head‑room for a loft—perfect for storage or an extra sleeping nook—and add clerestory windows to keep the space bright all day.

A Showcase for True Timber Craft

Built with robust mortise‑and‑tenon joinery—and finished with classic scarf and spline joints—this frame is as beautiful as it is strong. Whether you’re raising it as a weekend DIY project or hiring a crew, the exposed beams turn everyday parking or tinkering into a statement of craftsmanship you’ll be proud to show off.

Ready-To-Raise™ Kits—Speed Meets Precision

Upgrade to our Ready-To-Raise™ Kit and receive every timber CNC‑cut, pre‑drilled, and clearly labeled. You’ll save days of layout time and ensure a snug, square fit:

  • 8× posts and beams milled for perfect mortise‑and‑tenon connections
  • Pre‑cut scarf and spline joints—with pegs and hardware bagged by stage
  • Illustrated raising guide plus phone/email support from our timber‑frame team

From the first post to roof sheathing, most crews finish the frame in a single weekend.

Custom Design—Tailored to Your Vision

Need deeper overhangs for solar shading? Extra garage doors? A wrap‑around porch? Our in‑house designers can modify roof pitch, wall height, window/door placement, or timber species to match your climate, zoning, and personal style. We’ll deliver updated engineering and shop drawings ready for permitting and fabrication.

Timbers, Joinery and Connections

Timber Frame Joinery and Connections Offered

After we've collaboratively chosen the ideal wood type for your project, we proceed to source the highest quality timber through our network of trusted mills. Ensuring that every piece meets our exacting standards, we then transport the timber to one of our cutting facilities. There, the joinery is meticulously crafted using CNC machines. Every joint, drilling, mortise, and tenon is cut with precision, adhering to tight tolerances for impeccable quality and fit.

Following the cutting process, all timbers are systematically labeled according to the production numbers assigned during the creation of your model and plans. This meticulous process ensures that every component of your timber frame is prepared with the utmost attention to detail, ready for the next phase of your project.

Included with your package are all the pegs, fasteners, screws, and connectors you need to put your ready-to-raise frame together. You will also get a detailed list for you to refer to while raising your frame.

  1. It is possible, but it would need to carry a lot of loads as this frame has a load-bearing ridge.

    Hello, is there a way to remove the center post space (perhaps shortening it to 20×24 or 16×24 so it is an open space with no center post?

    Thank you,

  3. Hi, can you tell me what the longest length beam I would need for this plan? I’m guessing 12’ but wanted to check for sure.

  4. What would it cost to adapt this to a 48′ x 24′ structure with the roof peaked in the center and be suitable to add straw bale walls? I am planning a large workshop so center posts would not be a problem if needed.

  5. Is this plan editable in Sketch-Up? I want to change the post heights to 18-16-14, and I also need to change the building footprint to 24×22…
    Let me know. Thanks . SB

    Ruben, we can help you with that through our custom design department. In order to get in communication with our team and receive an estimate for the work, please go to this page and fill out the questionnaire

  7. You need some plans for solar carports for condo associations. In my case it would be 8 cars, with solar panels facing south, 8:12 rise.

  8. What’s the height of the rear and middle cross members? I assume from the description the front one is 16’.

  9. The plates are all nominal 8×10’s. The top of the plates stand at 15′-6″ (front), 12′-7 7/8″ (middle) and 9′-7 7/8″ (rear).
