Trying to price out a 16x16 building. I'm comparing between blocks and wood.

How many 8x8x16 concrete blocks would it take to build a 16x16x10 building?

I get <720, accounting for doors and windows.
$2,000.00




That doesn't include cement, and you'll have to foot the wall because of the extra weight. Wood can go on a slab.




Have you looked at pre-fabricated sheds?

Roughly 720 blocks considering 4 complete walls (no door).

each wall = 12 blocks per row x 15 rows = 180 blocks per wall

No, we are needing a building to do vehicle wraps and window tint in.

It will need to be a lot deeper than 16' to do wraps
