Plan HG-1492 (936 Sq Ft (26x36) 2 Bed 2 Bath Pole Barn Home (Post-Frame) Floor Plan with Shop (Pull-Through Shop + Split Living Core)) is an IRC R304/R310-vetted pole barn home (post-frame) blueprint engineered around a 36'-0" × 26'-0" structural grid (936 sq ft base footprint, 0.72:1 Square-Bay Proportion). Configured on the Pull-Through Shop + Split Living Core topology, this layout delivers 586 sq ft of conditioned residential living area paired with a 351 sq ft fire-separated workshop/garage bay and 180 sq ft of covered outdoor porch deck.

Inside the conditioned envelope, the floor plan is organized into 6 distinct architectural zones: 1-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (13'-6" × 26'-0", 351 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (11'-6" × 11'-6", 132 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (11'-0" × 11'-6", 127 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (13'-0" × 14'-6", 189 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (9'-6" × 6'-6", 62 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (9'-6" × 8'-0", 76 sq ft). Plumbing rough-ins are consolidated across BATH & MUDROOM, KITCHEN & ISLAND to minimize sub-slab trenching and manifold pipe runs. Sleeping quarters (PRIMARY SUITE at 132 sq ft; BEDROOM 2 at 127 sq ft) are acoustically buffered from the primary living core and positioned on exterior elevations for code-compliant egress glazing.

From a builder takeoff standpoint, the 36' clear-span width utilizes 3-ply laminated post-frame columns (8' o.c.) + bookshelf girts bearing on 124 linear feet of 6" exterior wall framing (~157 framing studs/posts) and 105 linear feet of interior partitions. The 4:12 29-gauge ribbed or 26-gauge standing seam metal roof requires approximately 1,105 sq ft of roofing material (14 roofing squares), while the concrete pier footings w/ perma-column brackets & floating slab pours at an estimated 21 cubic yards of 4,000-PSI concrete.

What are the exact room dimensions inside this 586 sq ft 2-bedroom layout?

Plan HG-1492 features 6 architecturally solved spaces inside its 36' × 26' footprint: 1-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (13'-6" × 26'-0", 351 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (11'-6" × 11'-6", 132 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (11'-0" × 11'-6", 127 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (13'-0" × 14'-6", 189 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (9'-6" × 6'-6", 62 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (9'-6" × 8'-0", 76 sq ft). Every habitable room meets or exceeds IRC R304 minimum area (70+ sq ft) and minimum horizontal dimension (7'-0"+) requirements.

Can this 36' × 26' floor plan be built with post-frame, red-iron steel, or 2x6 stick framing?

Yes. Because the outer envelope is engineered on an even 36'-0" × 26'-0" structural grid (124 LF perimeter) with clear-span 4:12 trusses, a local structural engineer or building kit supplier can adapt the blueprint for 3-Ply Laminated Post-Frame Columns (8' o.c.) + Bookshelf Girts, conventional 2x6 stick framing at 16" o.c., laminated post-frame columns at 8' o.c., or structural insulated panels (SIPs).
