Books could be written on this topic, so for the sake of time and space we will concentrate on the basics you as a customer should look for, ask about and insist upon from a contractor or builder you hire to construct your garage. We will assume we are building off a monolific turn down slab, although framing off a block foundation is very similar with the exception of the seal plate being a 2x8 treated instead of a 2x4 treated. In both cases ½" anchor bolts should have been installed about 3" above the slab or blocks when the concrete was poured.

WALL FRAMING

In most cases walls will be framed of 2x4's 16" OC unless the wall exceeds 10ft. then 2x6, s will be required. The bottom plate of the wall should always be treated, since it will be in direct contact with the slab or blocks. The top of the wall should be doubled, for extra strength. Corners should be triple 2x4's creating nailers for future interior finish.

Walls should be sheeted with OSB or ½" plywood. Most codes require that structural sheeting be nailed every 6in. along the edges and 8in oc in the center of sheeting.

HEADERS

Headers are simply the head piece for your framed opening, doors, windows, the size of these headers as determined by the with of the opening. for standard walk in doors and windows a double 2x8 is usually adequate. Garage doors also require headers but must be much more substantial, again based on the width, and placement. Garage door framed in gable ends will require less of a header, than those framed in the eve side, since the eve side will be carrying the roof loads. Garage door headers in the gable end are usually doubled 2x12's, those framed in eve side walls normally will require a double LVL type header. Most lumber yard can assist you in sizing your headers, just ask. All headers should have jack studs. Jack studs are studs that extend from the bottom plate to the bottom edge under your header.

ROOFS

You basically have two options here, trusses or stick framing. Trusses are simpler to use and very common in garage construction. Trusses are pre-engineered for structural and snow loads for your particular area.

Common installation allows for trusses to be set on 2ft. centers. You can have trusses built with the desired overhangs built in, which simplifies over hangs drastically. Stick framing will require that rafters be sized according to the span. A Ridge beam must be used when stick framing and should be a min. of one size larger than the rafters. The ridge beam is the peak member that the rafters are attached to at the top. When stick framing collar ties should be used to prevent the rafters from separating. Collar ties are attached from one side rafter to the other. Weather you are using trusses or stick framing gable bracing, which is angled from the gable wall back to the bottom cord or collar tie should be used. Roof sheeting is generally 7/16"OSB or ½" plywood. If your roof system is framed 2ft. on center plyclips should be used at the butt edges of roof, sheeting, to prevent sagging of the sheeting between rafter or truss bays

This article is not intended to be a do it yourself step by step, framing instructions, its intended purpose is to educate a home owner of what to look for and questions they should ask a prospective contractor when building a garage. As always you should make sure your contractor is licensed /bonded/insured and pulls all appropriate permits to insure your garage is built following all city, county, and state regulations.

The Welland Canal's Importance to the Metal Stamping Industry

Logistics and transportation are areas where efficiency makes for a successful bottom line; many industries have been lured from North America by lower overhead, less regulation, and more freedom to dump waste. The last thing industry here in the First World needs is an expensive disaster that interrupts the supply line to industries like metal stamping of parts for larger industries. Deadlines for delivery, the cost of shipping - vital factors like these can become unmanageable during a sustained interruption of the logistical chain.

Take for example the raw materials and machinery needed to operate a custom metal stamping factory that makes parts that require custom parts made with difficult forms or deep drawing to fill the order that makes another company tick. The stamping factory will need special tools and stamping machinery. The best equipment would be most likely imported from Germany where the highest quality machinery is produced. The German equipment comes in across the ocean into a city like Detroit or Chicago, where it may change over to finish the journey by rail. Then the rolls of steel or aluminum have to come in from another continent perhaps. All of this cargo is typical to shipping on the Great Lakes. An accident or sabotage along one of the canals or locks could paralyze many industries, and in fact both accidents and sabotage have occurred along the Welland Canal.

It was a clear and pleasant evening several miles from where I grew up in Welland, in a small town called Allenburg along the canal heading north to St. Catherines. Allenburg is basically a coffee shop, a stoplight, an antique store - oh yes…and one lift bridge. Canal bridges are pretty easy to drive - one stick makes them go up, the other stick makes them go down. You see the lake boat coming, raise the bridge; after the boat passes, lower it and raise the gates for the long line of cars to continue on their way. It seems simple enough but when the lake freighter Windoc, carrying $8 million dollars worth of grain was passing through the bridge began to come down before the ship had cleared. The funnel crashed into the span and was sheared off, destroying the freighter and the bridge. The Seaway had to close for several days, causing a chain-reaction as boats had to set anchor. The bridge had to remain in the up position for the rest of the shipping season, to the consternation of drivers who had to take a detour for nearly a year. N.M. Paterson and Sons, the owners of the Windoc had to sue the Seaway operators for $16.8 million to recover their losses but the day-to-day losses cost time and money to thousands of other businesses due to interruption in production.

Security along the Welland canal in Ontario is practically non-existent; the last sabotage plot was in 1916 when German diplomat Franz von Papen threatened to blow up the canal, but he had already been expelled from the U.S. for espionage. A dynamite charge was planted on the hinges of one of the locks in 1900 doing minor damage. When it comes to sabotage the official story of the 2000 - 2008 White House regarding terrorists states that terrorists are everywhere waging war on North American soil yet there's an easy target on the Canadian side of the border that would cause havoc if taken out by explosives. Without bridges and lift locks St. Lawrence Seaway would close for a long period and disrupt the economy. Interrupting logistics is a basic tenet of military strategy. The answer is that the corporatists and extremely wealthy elite are in control of events and they will only destroy things when it's in their interests, such as the military implosion demolition of the obsolete, largely non rentable, asbestos-ridden towers of the World Trade Center. Anyone who works with steel will tell you that fires can't cause skyscrapers to collapse and explode into a fine dust. The implosion that removed Building 7 was recorded from many angles. All three buildings went down at the speed of gravity, the hallmark of controlled demolition. They who own the cargo protect the route on which it travels.

where's the machinists/ engine builders??

i got a 1995 350 in my truck it's a carb'd motor i got the gm performer intake to match the heads.. i got a set of full roller rockers i want to put on.. i need to know if i can use them on these heads without guide plates or if i need guide plates can you get guide plates that will work with press in studs.. if not i'm gonna use my aluminum heads which have screw in studs..

The press in studs are ok if you have self align rockers, (look for a small washer on each side of the tip roller) if not use guide plates and hardened push rods.
