My father use to say,'you are only going to do it once'. Mine is 30 x60 with 10ft ceilings. Lifts were not popular when I built it. Wish I had the built higher ceiling. Mine is concrete block up 48" then 2x6 studs. Then I built a 2nd floor, with Gambrel roof. For my trains. I planned on using heated floor. I had the designs for the PET tubing from Zurn,insulation in floor etc. Then I talked to guys who had it some were positive. Some said just use gas
forced air. So I changed. Floor will be 5 " thick minimum4000 psi with fiber. I have steel rods that I'm not going to use. I've done all the building myself. Oh the upstairs floor is 2x4 30 ft trusses on 16" centers 24 " high. No spongeeness.
