Simplify your experience with how to Build a Block Garage through our structured analysis.
- Concrete block garages are stronger and more durable than wood framed or steel garages.
- Because concrete blocks are thick, the garage is more sound proof than other types and can withstand the pressure of a blast or a fire.
- Dig out all the dirt within the area 6 inches deep.
- Place two 1/2 inch rebar horizontally all the way around the bottom of the footings, making sure the rebar is at least 3 inches away from the earth by placing a 3-inch by 3-inch dobie block every 3 feet underneath the rebar.
- Rebar is a structural steel rod manufactured to be placed in concrete to add strength.
