What is post-frame construction?

Post-frame construction is a reliable and efficient method often used for agricultural buildings like barns and machine shops, as well as garages and light commercial structures. It uses large posts set into the ground or concrete to support the frame, allowing for wider clear spans and fewer load-bearing walls.

This type of construction is well-suited to rural projects where open interior space and quick build times matter. It’s cost-effective, durable, and flexible enough to suit a range of uses — from equipment storage and workshops to livestock housing.

At Jake Wiebe Construction, we’ve been building post-frame structures across Manitoba for years. We follow engineered plans, understand site demands, and focus on solid, efficient builds that stand the test of time.
