Abstract
A prefabricated pole barn including a truss assembly, a foundation assembly and a roof assembly is disclosed. The truss assembly includes specially made trusses made with galvanized square tubing or red iron tubing. The tubing helps to provide the trusses with added strength and stability. The design of the trusses along with a quickset foundation of the foundation assembly, particularly treated floor support poles of the foundation assembly, and a roof of the roof assembly help to provide with a quickly and easily assembled pole barn. The pole barn is further stronger, more stable and loadbearing in comparison to traditional pole barns using standard bar joist trusses made of wood.
Claims18
A system for a prefabricated pole barn, comprising:
- a. a truss assembly including a plurality of trusses, each of said plurality of trusses includes long tubing which extends upwardly on a left side of said plurality of trusses and downwardly on a right side of said plurality of trusses, said long tubing creating a first peak at a midpoint of said long tubing, each of said plurality of trusses also includes short tubing extending upwardly on the left side of said plurality of trusses and downwardly on the right side of said plurality of trusses, said short tubing creating a second peak at a midpoint of said short tubing, said long tubing being supported above said short tubing by support tubing which extends vertically between said short tubing and said long tubing at predetermined locations, said support tubing being parallel to each other, said support tubing being of different heights between said short tubing and said long tubing, said support tubing getting shorter towards lateral ends of said plurality of trusses, said plurality of trusses having mounting brackets secured thereto, said mounting brackets mounted on said long tubing and extending upwardly at predetermined locations from said long tubing, said mounting brackets also mounted on said short tubing at distal ends thereof, said mounting brackets on said short tubing being in constant abutting contact with said distal ends, said mounting brackets secured to said short tubing extending downwardly therefrom, said mounting brackets secured to said short tubing being entirely below said short tubing, each of said mounting brackets including fastener opening therethrough;
- b. a foundation assembly including a ground surface and ground support poles, said ground support poles extending from said ground surface and being mounted to said plurality of trusses, said ground support poles secured to said mounting brackets on said short tubing and secured with fasteners extending through said fastener opening;
- and
- c. a roof assembly including a roof mounted to said plurality of trusses, said roof having a middle support beam extending at a length of said roof at a midpoint thereof, said roof including roof support beams extending along a length of said roof towards lateral sides of said roof, said roof mounted to said mounting brackets along said long tubing and secured with said fasteners.

A system for a prefabricated pole barn, consisting of:
- a. a truss assembly including a plurality of trusses, each of said plurality of trusses includes long tubing located on a top portion of said plurality of trusses, each of said plurality of trusses also includes short tubing located on a bottom portion of said plurality of trusses, said long tubing being supported above said short tubing by support tubing which extends vertically between said short tubing and said long tubing at predetermined locations, said support tubing being parallel and of varying heights, said plurality of trusses having mounting brackets secured thereto, said mounting brackets mounted on long tubing distal ends said long tubing and extending upwardly from long tubing distal ends, said mounting brackets being in constant abutting contact with said long tubing distal ends, said mounting brackets also mounted on said short tubing at short tubing distal ends, said mounting brackets on said short tubing being in constant abutting contact with said short tubing distal ends, said mounting brackets secured to said short tubing extending downwardly therefrom, said mounting brackets secured to said short tubing being entirely below said short tubing, each of said mounting brackets including fastener opening therethrough, said plurality of trusses being made of square tubing;
- b. a foundation assembly including a ground surface and ground support poles, said ground support poles extending from said ground surface and being mounted to said plurality of trusses, said mounting brackets engaging only an inner side of said ground support poles;
- and
- c. a roof assembly including a roof mounted to said plurality of trusses, said roof having a middle support beam extending at a length of said roof at a midpoint thereof, said roof including roof support beams extending along a length of said roof towards lateral sides of said roof.
