I have bought a Compton concrete garage from a friend, he dismantled it and delivered it. I didn't measure or photogragh it while it was up, but he told me it's an 11' x 24' size.

I have the basic technique for building up the concrete pieces, but have a problem getting the roof support pieces in place.
The roof spars are about 126" wide (this defines the width of the support posts).
I have 8 panels at 42" wide, plus the interlocking boss.
I have lots of panels at 36" wide, plus the boss.
I have joining columns which add 12" to the length of the two panels it joins.
I have four corner pieces, which can add 5" or 8 1/2" as a pair to the garage width dependant upon orientation.

What I don't have is a combination of the above to achieve a width of 126", and these pieces are HEAVY, so I'm sick of moving them around. :mad:

Can anyone help ? Suffice to say Compton haven't been much help so far, they said a local installer would phone tomorrow, but that's my last day and I could do with showing some progress before the w/e!
