Details for this 12x16 Barn shed with porch...

• Gambrel style shed roof.
  
• 12' wide, 16' long, and 14' 8 3/8" tall (ground to roof peak) with 6' wide x 16' long side porch. This makes the dimensions across the front 18' wide, and 16' deep from the front to the back.
  
• 6' wide by 7' tall roll up shed door on 12' end wall.
• 35" by 6'9" tall pre-made shed door on wall leading out onto the porch.
  
• 7'10"  interior wall height.

• Wooden floor framing for main shed with 2x6 treated floor joists 12" on center.
• Porch floor framing with 2x6 treated floor joists 16" on center.
  
• 2x4 wall framing 16" on center
• 2x4 truss construction spaced 24" on center
• Plans show LP 1/2" Smartside siding panels however you may use siding of your choice.  If you prefer to go with lap siding you will have to sheet the walls first with 1/2" osb
  
• 6' wide shed ramp in front of the 6' roll up shed door on 12' end wall.
  
• Use cedar trim, pvc trim, or trim of your choice.  Plans show cedar trim on roof, doors, and corners.

This barn has a 6' wide by 16' long porch that you can use for any number of purposes like storing firewood or just setting up a few chairs and lounging and taking it easy. Porch construction is easily built on the opposite side if you prefer.

You have the option of going with a nice 6' roll up shed door or building a set of double shed doors instead. The side with the porch on it has an entry door that is about 36" wide but can be framed to your specs.

Plans also come with instructions on how to do framing for adding windows wherever you might want some extra light coming in.

I have even included plans for adding a nice loft for all that extra storage you may need up in the ceiling area which is very roomy indeed with a loft floor to ceiling height over 5.5'. And this loft can be expanded to whatever length you need. 8' is shown in the plans.
