    7/16” OSB is used for roof decking because it is manufactured with heat resistant glues that prevent delamination and warping.

  • Drip Edge

    An aluminum drip edge prevents water damage to roof decking from siphoning of water along the edge of the shingles.

  • Vented Ridge

    Vented Ridge

    Venting the roof at its peak along the ridge provides superior ventilation. This technique helps prevent damage to shingles and your stored property that may be caused by excessive heat and condensation.

  • Gusseted Trusses

    Gusseted Trusses

    2×4 trusses are placed 24” on center and gusseted to add strength to the roof system to prevent sagging from the weight of snow and ice.

  • Shallow Groove LP Smart Side

    LP Smart Side

    At Cook we exclusively use LP SmartSide® sidingThis siding enhances the aesthetics and strength of the building while virtually eliminating the possibility of delamination common to traditional plywood siding products. This panel siding is 19/32″ thick in 4’ x 8’ sheets with shallow grooves that run vertically at 24” on-center with double studs.

  • Double Studs

    Double Studs

    The 2×4 wall studs are placed 24” on center with double studs where the sheets of siding meet. This technique provides a larger nailing surface, avoiding the lap joints, which prevents gaps and splitting at the joints.

  • Fasteners

    Fasteners

    Ring shank coated nails are used throughout sidewall construction to provide maximum holding strength against swelling and contracting caused by changes in the weather and humidity.

  • Adjustable Tension Rods

    Adjustable Tension Rods

    Two adjustable tension rods are installed on every door to prevent the doors from warping as the building ages and is exposed to the elements.

  • Heavy Duty 6” Door Hinges

    Heavy Duty 6” Door Hinges

    Every door is installed with 3 heavy duty 6” zinc plated hinges to provide maximum strength and durability.

  • Pressure Treated Lumber

    Treated Lumber

    The use of treated lumber for the entire floor system including skids, floor joists, and decking enable Cook to extend a lifetime warranty against decay and termite damage on all pressure treated lumber.

  • Notched Floor Skids

    Notched Floor Skids

    The 4×6” treated floor skids are notched so the floor joists can be recessed into the skid providing strength and durability. This allows for movement of the building without causing damage to the floor system.

  • Pulling Blocks

    Pulling Blocks

    Pulling blocks are installed and holes are drilled at each end of the centermost skids to help prevent damage if and when the building ever needs to be moved.
