This book was published for the 80s however all the information in this book is super helpful and still is quite widely used today. It has so much relevant content that can help you build a pole building or house that you would be doing your self a in justice if you did not buy it kudos and I am starting the building process within a week and this has helped tremendously.

I build my own building because the every day companies said it could not be done how I wanted it or wanted way too much to build. It took a couple weekends but it came out great. ideas and specifications were very useful.

Easy to read, good information on pole building construction. It is an older book, but it is all still relevant, except for any pricing information, of course.
