At Hybrid Barns, we have brought together a best of both worlds approach in regards to building that dream shop, house, or agricultural superstructure. By combining the most beneficial attributes of each wood and steel married into one, we have obtained an affordable, high-quality integrated building enclosure. Thus, allowing amazing flexibility in design, cost of manufacturing, and time to build.
For example, a team of three handy individuals without specialized equipment can have a decent-size hybrid structure up in less time than most any other design of building in use today. And with the additional use of material lifting equipment and or man lifts, you can further drastically reduce assembly times even more. Creating a win win overall building solution.

We’ve chosen quality selected kiln dried SYP framing lumber and the highest rating treated SYP Structural timbers for use in our Hybrid Barn Structures:
Regarding our Pressure Treated Structural Timbers
With our speciality treated lumber and selected structural wood products, we are meeting the most stringent specifications in accordance with national and local regulations.
Most dimensional pressure treated lumber and timbers are treated to .25 or .40 pcf in ACQ. Larger dimensional lumber (2×8 and above) can be treated to .60 pcf with CCA but only for use in certain construction applications and above grade ground contact solutions.
We usually recommend .60 pcf (CCA) for freshwater use, below grade contact, extreme weather conditions, or saltwater splash. .80 CCA for government specifications, and 2.5 pcf CCA for projects in saltwater.
Long-lasting Treated Wood Products
Pressure treated wood is the most cost-effective building material available. It is long-lasting, has an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, and it is easily workable with standard tools and skills.
Additionally, it is a completely renewable resource. In the United States, we grow much more lumber/wood than we use — and those forests create oxygen and while reducing carbon dioxide in the air.
