My 36x36 carport style building was flipped over in the April Tornados in Alabama. I was wondering if you had any ideas on how to flip it back over without tearing it up? It is sitting on its top with very minumal damage right now.

I'm surprised no one has tackled this so I'll start the discussion. Feel free to say why it won't work and possibly to think of how it could be done.

1) Old fashion barn building.... frame the outside of building and secure building to frame. With pullies/ ropes and community rock the frame and attached building over. Jack up building as necessary and dismantle frame. Reuse material used for the frame in some other project.

2) Hope for another strong breeze.... no so funny.... sorry.

Hope that helps.
