I arrived a little late to the site this morning and missed them sliding the barn into place but here is what it looked like afterward. You can see the “bank” on the barn to the left of some of the pictures, especially the last one.
Barn Moving Part Deux
Neat!
Very cool!
Love this, and would love to have a barn like that. Is the plan to reskin it? I'm guessing the frame was in good condition?
The frame was solid and yes I assume they are going to replace the siding with new but they are also building the rest of the barn and then a new house on site so the siding might have to wait
how did they push (pull?) the barn? I see that it sitting on big steel beams, but how did they move it "sideways" once it was sitting there?
There was a large loader of some sort that dragged it I believe
This was really awesome, good photography too. With the right rigging of gutters and cisterns can you imagine the rain catchment available off that beast?(survival mode: Off) Wonder if they do this kind of magic in Wakanda?… : /
I am pretty sure they will have a cistern on the new house, they need the soft water to wash white clothing as our well water around here has a ton of rust.
It certainly looks stable. Hehe. Stable.
Seriously, though, excellent work.
