I stand corrected. I must have read some incorrect information and assumed it to be true (made sense in a way).
Wonder the feasibility of using this stuff for a few years, replacing with metal when the time comes that I *need* it, and repurposing the plastic ones for a greenhouse.

Your project is very do-able .
We just built a 16 x 24 shed with ramps and a small
10 x 12 lanai .
We chose ramps in stead of stairs as we are getting older and may need wheel chairs pretty soon.
Single story and Argus delivered FREE all as we bought in phases of 1000$ at a time .
Damaged materials mostly which Argus has on sale on Saturdays .
Post n pier and no permit but built over code .
Existing code cess pool .
We call it our play ground . Mostly for ohana to stay in when they visit the farm or the grand kids to have their own space to play away from main hale.
All the advice here is great .

Check with Argus him self on ideas.

Thank you Mrs. Mimosa, it's always nice when you chime in.
I too have to keep in mind that I am getting up there in age and that it will sneak up on me soon, so keeping my shabin low to the ground, and a ramp (as well as stairs) up to the lanai has always been in mind.

And thank you for the tip on Argus' Saturday sales on damaged materials.
And thanks to everyone who has (and will) chime in. I'm always appreciative of good advice and experiences.

Your project has sent me back to the drawing board. We've been wanting a playhouse ( for Tutu) away from the main house for a long time.
Mahalo for the inspiration Palanakonu, and for the information on Argus Saturday sale Mrs. Mimosa. We used Argus for almost everything when we remodeled.
