Hey guys, I'm looking into building a garage from scratch. It will be about 5.5m x 12m.
I'm looking at using timber frames and cladding it as I have not used steel frame before. My biggest issue though is the front wall with the roller door. I'm unsure about designing it to support the roller door and tracks etc.
Would I be better of making the front wall entirely out of brick and just framing the other 3 walls?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Nathan.
