I am going to build a machine hall 8.4 x 14x4m with a wall height of 3.3m. Initially uninsulated but with the possibility to insulate later. The slab is already cast and soon I will start nailing the blocks.
The plan is 45x145 studs in the walls and to build the blocks with studs, GU, nailing battens, and panels on the ground and then raise them.
I have some questions about supports that someone might be able to advise me on?
On the front side, there are three doors, 2.5 and 3m respectively. The idea is to place a roughly 10m long glulam beam 270x90 over all three to hold the house together. On the sides of the blocks where the glulam beam is supported, I thought I would nail on 2 pcs 45x145 with a notch inwards as support for the glulam beam as part of the blocks. I imagine the glulam beam can then be mounted afterward when the blocks on the sides are raised. Then the two small blocks that support between the doors are mounted. Am I thinking correctly? So like this, the blue part is the glulam beam.
The gable peaks I thought to solve by building straight wall blocks and cladding the two outer rafters with panels before they are lifted up. Below the rafter, a drip edge at the joint. That should work, right?
In total, there will be nine blocks as shown below, does that seem reasonable?
