Stick Build vs Post Frame Construction
Stick Build
Stick build construction involves building a frame using traditional lumber, such as 2x4s and 2x6s, creating a traditional wood-framed structure. It offers greater flexibility in design and customization but can be more labor-intensive and time-consuming. It also typically requires a more skilled workforce.
Post Frame
Post frame construction, also known as pole barn construction, uses large, heavy timber posts as the primary structural support. This method is often faster and more cost-effective, especially for larger garages. However, it offers less flexibility in design and customization compared to stick build.
