Residential Pole Barn Design Services

IGI offers detailed pole barn design services for homeowners looking to add functional and versatile structures to their property. Whether you need a garage, workshop, storage building, or agricultural structure, our drafting ensures your pole barn is safe, code-compliant, and designed for long-term use.

Pole barns are cost-effective structures that require precise planning to ensure proper load-bearing capacity, ventilation, and compliance with township regulations. Our drafting process includes detailed drawings of posts, beams, roof trusses, and foundations, giving builders all the information they need.

Understanding the Process

Pole barns are among the most versatile and cost-effective structures a homeowner can add, but designing them correctly requires precision. At IGI, we begin by reviewing your intended use, property layout, and township regulations. Our drafting process accounts for post spacing, roof truss design, wind and snow load requirements, ventilation, and foundation options.

Every pole barn must balance simplicity with durability. Whether you’re building for storage, a workshop, or agricultural use, our plans provide clear construction details and ensure code compliance. By producing accurate, scaled drawings, we give builders a reliable roadmap while also smoothing the path for township approvals.

Applications

Don’t settle for generic drawings or cookie-cutter kits… We’ll work with you to create the exact pole building that fits your needs.

  • Detached garages – Safe, functional storage for vehicles and equipment.

  • Workshops or hobby spaces – Drafted for utility connections, lighting, and ventilation.

  • Agricultural storage – Barns designed for garden tools, feed, or small livestock.

  • Multipurpose outbuildings – Flexible layouts for recreational or mixed use.

Advantages of Professional Pole Barn Drafting

Many pole barn projects start with generic kit drawings that fail to address site-specific needs, leading to approval delays or costly adjustments. With IGI, you avoid those pitfalls. Homeowners gain:

  • Permit-ready plans that meet zoning and IRC accessory structure codes.

  • Custom designs tailored to your property and intended use.

  • Detailed construction drawings that help contractors build efficiently and safely.

  • Long-term durability by accounting for local wind, snow, and load requirements.

Why IGI?

Pole barns may seem straightforward, but without precise planning they can quickly run into issues with inspectors or structural performance. Homeowners choose IGI because we combine drafting accuracy with knowledge of township requirements, giving you a structure that passes inspection and performs as intended. By partnering with us, you gain peace of mind knowing your pole barn is designed to last — and built on a foundation of compliance, clarity, and craftsmanship.
