if">About 10 years ago I put an extension onto my barn designed by Dan Fergu=
son (whom some of you may know as a vintage MGA racer). We did it 25 f=
eet wide and 44 feet long, 12-1/2 foot ceiling.
Dimensions were dictated by proportions to the existing structure.) H=
indsight says it should have been about 4 feet wider to give me an extra foo=
t or two on each side of the car. It has two four post lifts for stora=
ge and a 2-post for service. As someone
pointed out earlier, even at 12-1/2 feet I need to make sure I close the ho=
ods of some cars before lifting the cars to max height. I find the fou=
r posters are better for service on my Jag and TR due to the low ground clea=
rance of the cars coupled with an
ancient two post lift (likely older than my 4A), unless of course I am doin=
g suspension or brake work. Footings under the two poster uprights are=
10" thick. The entire floor area is at least 4" thick with a wire mes=
h reinforcement, 4000 pound concrete.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
