Hello everyone,
Originally, I planned to have a metal garage, but my wife didn’t like that idea. Therefore, the garage will be built from sand-lime bricks, as it is difficult to find something in the desired size.
The garage will be built directly on the property line and is planned to be 10 meters (33 feet) wide, 9 meters (30 feet) long, and 3 meters (10 feet) high.
I want to have the foundation slab constructed together with the house, but we will handle the "building" ourselves.
Two things are still unclear to me:
How should I build the flat roof (concrete slabs, wood, metal) given the large spans?
How do I construct the lintel for the garage door? The front should have as much opening space as possible so that it’s possible to drive in the middle when working on the car.
I assume that a structural engineer will need to calculate the static loads?
By the way, the construction site is in NRW.
Thank you very much for any advice.

With just the pure material costs, you will be looking at around 13,000 to 15,000 (plus). Definitely not less.
You will be surprised by the cost of concrete and the corresponding concrete pump.
Don’t underestimate reinforcing steel. Rebar needs to be placed and tied (an extremely tedious and very sweaty job). You won’t be able to avoid the plans either (1,000).

If you can get such a large garage for 18,000, I wouldn’t hesitate long—it’s practically a bargain.
I’m currently working on a carport/porch project, open with only two walls, made of wood with a green roof, 50 sqm (540 sq ft), and it’s not doable for less than 25,000. Wow, I didn’t expect that ops:

I can share my prices since I’m currently still deep in the process. It’s a garage with a carport. Total area is about 49.x square meters (around 528 square feet) with a gable roof (15 degrees) and concrete blocks similar to the main house:

We want to stay under 25,000.I think that’s quite affordable. Now, the OP wants not 49 but almost double that with 90 square meters (970 square feet), and instead of paving, a concrete slab.
bauenmk202017 Sep 2019 19:46A precast concrete garage measuring 9 x 6 x 2.68 m (29.5 x 19.7 x 8.8 ft), with one large door and electrical installation included. Foundation excluded, costs are approximately 25,000 to 27,000 EUR.
I was surprised by that as well... I will also have it built with masonry. I have calculated 30,000 EUR plus 7,000 EUR for the slab, but I hope to get it cheaper.

So, 2D F calcium silicate bricks will cost around 2500€ (approximately 2700 USD). The gate is 2500€ (about 2700 USD). You can cast the ring beam yourself. One day, five helpers, and it works. Concrete is cheap; the pump is expensive. Plus mortar.
Including structural engineering, a skilled bricklayer, the building permit / planning permission, and a lot of manual labor, I would come to at least 15,000€ (about 16,200 USD). More likely 20,000€ (around 21,600 USD).
For these dimensions, however, that would be an absolutely excellent price.
