If you design for lateral and longitudinal bracing there should be no problem. You may have to get some plans showing this. [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

thanks, thats what i thought, it would be a different structural design. i have books that don't show this way of building. you know how it is , friends no do it this way lol . i will go with my own way but its worth looking in to so i am. if you have a link to show how to please put it up for me thanks again.

how far are the posts going to be placed on center? 8'? are you going with all 6x6 or 4x6 in the centers. What headers are you putting in for the doors thanks just curious
