Homemade tarp carport.

Here is a homemade double wide double long four car carport. Insert one pvc pipe into the concrete. It was made with lightwight steel poles conduit. The homeowner had welded his own metal brackets to hold the poles and stretched a tarp across the roof.

Using 10 foot sections of pvc pipe two types of specialized pvc fittings and greenhouse plastic i fashioned a simple yet highly functional carport for my small truck. Instead of trying to lift 16 8x8 treated beams in the air by myself i went and just purchased a 2 300 fully installed carport. Fasten the front and back beams first. He didn t actually park four cars under this he had a truck with a trailer.

Fill the five gallon buckets with concrete. Use a leveling tool to position the pipe so it stands level. Repeat this for all four corners. This is an ideal diy carport for a small yard since it can double as an outdoor cover to shade a sitting area.

About 3 months after i actually bought it they came and put it up. To secure the walls of the carport you ll basically build a simple rectangular box approximately 16 feet 4 9 m long nine feet wide and roughly seven feet high secured onto the posts. If you have 100 and an extra hour to spend outside you too can construct a 10 foot by 12 5 foot temporary carport.
