That works for large cubic feet.

You did not repeat the OP so newcomers do not know what you want,
This is a newsgroup NOT a chat room.
AND your question is really meaningless without a LOT more info.

Just go to http://www.unitedsteelbuilding.com, and feed

it will be an EDUMACATED WAG.

Seems like there's a lot of looking into crystal balls and mysterious

premise.

Funny. Some here have answered the questions with a guess. Some can't even
understand the question.

I think that was one of the most important milestones I ever passed in my
life: giving up the attitude that it was more important to know the answer
than to at least understand the question.

And that applies to everything.

So, all we can agree on is that we have two very distinct groups of people
here.

btw, I shall get two firm bids today, and both from established companies
that I provided the exact information to.

I'll post the bids and we'll see who came closest.

Yes, and I appreciate that, being a dumb assed question asker. But, the
response does weigh heavily as to whether I do much business or conversation
with the other person or their company.

I get testy at times, like everyone else. But it's nice not to be slapped
when asking a dumb question. I have asked a bunch, and think that it only
bothers the people who know everything there is to know, and are bothered by
us people who don't.

Thanks again.

Good luck, I went through this a couple of years ago, when I considered
installing a steel Quonset building. I really wanted to compare products and
prices over the net, but found it was difficult to get anywhere near
accurate pricing via the automatic estimators and every company I contacted
came off like shysters. They all have "special deals" on units from
cancellations and all manner of hustle tactics. It just seemed so seedy I
gave up

I have run into this already. Seems like there are so many "cancellations"
that people want to blow out. There seems to be some long sad story
attached to every building.

In all honesty, I don't think anyone slapped you for asking a dumb

I guess you haven't been paying attention. I got several "good" replies.
From the Git-R-Done brigade here of doers who can look at a problem and come
up with a solution. Instead of sitting at a monitor all day correcting
other people's English and being critical.

Steve

I'd like to make a suggestion.
Next time you put out a question, make it a real one. With details.
The steel can be as thick as you want, price will as well.
Those windows and doors can be anything, including the big ones.
Gonna put it on a foundation? Where? Insulated could mean the
skimpy pink foam that gets used under vinyl siding.

If all you look for is the total enclosed volume, the estimate will
either be quite low, or some companies won't even want to deal
with you because they know you haven't thought it through enough
to be getting functional bids.

Just my opinion, worth what you paid.
