7 things to consider when building a carport
Before building a carport, you need to know what you want and what you can afford.
Need a lock-up free standing carport to keep 3 x 16 seater game drive vehicles protected. Dimensions: 11.4m x 9.2m (including roof overhang of mm) Height 4m at lowest point, with slope for water run-off sides to be closed off with either chormadeck sheeting or marine timer slates. See image attached below
I need a carport for my rubber duck but also as a workshop for me… hence the double port. Floor needs to be concrete and I would like the option of enclosing the weather side at some stage. Aluminium stems to be the best option. What do you recommend? I will have levelled the site before you start. Please can you give me an indication of price.
Carport is erected been up for many years. Unfortunately the gardener decided to try drive the car after it was parked for him to wash and he crashed the car into the carport on post causing damage to one post and the fibre cement facias. The house belongs to my mother and the insurance has asked her to get quotes to repair.
Need a carport of dimensions avg .7m length x 3.7m - please see also sketch. The carport needs to be from galvanized steel and painted / powercoated to charcoal grey or alternatively from aluminium also in charcoal grey. The carport has a garage to the left side to fix against, a boundary wall to the rear and a high wall to the right to fix ontop. Please also refer to sketch. I have also indicated posts as I might want to close with timber slats at some stage.
Ticked off carport, but what we actually need is a sloped roof over an atrium (approx 9m x 4m) to keep rain water from flooding the atrium between main house and pool room. No free standing traditional carport required. Enclosed on all 4 sides already Just a roof that will have gutter(s) and single downpipe leading rainwater to garden.
Good Day, I need two driveways paved (Please note that one driveway has a tar surface that has broken up and needs to be paved, the other has no existing surface) I would like them to be paved with square cobbles with earth tone colours, supplied by Smart Stone. Please contact me regarding quotations for this project.
Attached pictures: House pics of where the carport needs to go (4 pics) Inspirational pics of what we want the carport to look like (4 pics) 3d schematics of where we would like the carport to go (2 pics) Dimensions and requirements: 5m deep (at least) 6m wide (at least, to fit 2 cars easily) Front posts to be inset by at least a meter. I.e. We need a 1m overhang so that the front posts are not in the way of the other garage Only 2 corner posts are required in the front. The back and sides can have more posts than just on the corners We would like the posts to be square, not round. We would like the roof of the carport to let light in so would prefer clear or white IBR or whidespan polycarb sheeting. Other or better recommendations would also be considered. If the colour of the posts and front facia is an option we would like to have it black or be able to paint it black. Please include the cost to paint. Wooden slats as per the inspirational images
I need a Quote on a construction of a 30m² a double carport with roof sheeting (not attached to the house). Would you be so kind to get me the calculations to the following please: • The amount of concrete necessary for the foundations and floor slab. • The amount of brick needed (the substructure must have a minimum of 3 brick courses below the ground and 1 course above the ground level. • 75mm Concrete floor. • 25mm Screed surface. • Steel columns and beams. • Roof sheeting. • Equipment required to complete the job. • Material costs. • Labour costs. • The time needed to complete the project
ERECTION OF CARPORT Allow for the erection of steel canopy (mild steel) mm long x mm wide and, the steel canopy must be mm long x mm wide and mm high. Support poles for the canopy are to be 75 x 75 x 3 mm square tubing and must be planted mm deep and concreted mm x mm, cross beams and bearer beams to be of x 50 x 20 x 2mm lip cannel and roof sheeting to consist of full length 0.4 mm galvanized I.B.R sheeting. Paint entire canopy after completion.
I'd like a carport that will park 2 cars (1 in front of the other). The space inside the yard from the wall closest to the gate all the way to the back of the house is mm * mm. The height from the bottom to the gutter line is mm. The carport support beams close to the house can be attached to the house. I'm interested in shade netting or iron sheets for cover.
