RV Carport Plan – 16x40 Post Frame RV Port with Pier Foundation

640 Square Feet Traditional RV Port Heartland 30379 is a specialized utility structure engineered to provide reliable overhead protection for large-scale vehicles. Spanning 640 square feet with a 16-foot width and 40-foot depth, this post-frame construction model offers a footprint optimized for recreational vehicles, travel trailers, and marine vessels. The open-sided configuration facilitates quick access and eliminates the spatial constraints of conventional enclosed garage walls.

The structural integrity of this RV carport plan is derived from its robust post-frame system, which is anchored to a pier foundation to maximize stability while streamlining site preparation requirements. With a maximum building height of 17 ft 9 in, the design provides the necessary vertical clearance to accommodate high-profile motorhomes and camper trailers, ensuring that large-scale vehicles remain shielded from direct solar exposure and precipitation.

The roofing system is engineered with a 4:12 pitch, which balances effective water shed with a profile suitable for various site contexts. This slope directs runoff away from the 16 ft by 40 ft interior bay, keeping the parking surface clear and minimizing moisture accumulation around the base of the posts. The design prioritizes long-span structural efficiency, allowing the 640 sq ft of covered space to remain entirely unobstructed by interior support columns.

Designed for integration into both rural acreage and residential properties, the unit serves as a versatile solution for vehicle preservation. Its utilitarian layout enables placement adjacent to existing driveways or alongside detached workshops, offering a dedicated zone for heavy-duty vehicle storage without requiring the infrastructure of a fully conditioned garage. The open-concept design ensures that maneuverability remains simple, even for longer-wheelbase vehicles.

Key Features: 640 sq ft total area, 16 ft x 40 ft footprint, post-frame construction, pier foundation, 4:12 roof pitch, 17 ft 9 in maximum building height, open-bay vehicle storage, RV and boat compatibility, rural or residential site adaptability.

JoAnne and the entire staff was extremely helpful and patient with us while we decided between 2 homes. This home has outstanding curb appeal and a great layout perfect for us. I work from home so having the home office off the foyer is fantastic. I converted the wet bar into a storage closet for my office. We also extended the laundry room into the porch and created a multipurpose laundry/mud room. I would buy from archival designs again and again.

It took almost a year to pick a plan. Since my husband and I retired a few years ago we wanted this last house had to have everything we wanted and needed. The kitchen is my favorite part of the house. I can see what’s happening in my neighborhood through my kitchen window and watch my husband garden in the back yard. Our children think we made a smart decision when we picked this house for our senior years.

We’ve had an amazing experience with our new home and are excited to be moved in. The customer service we received during our modifications was exceptional. We are loving the open layout of the kitchen and family room. It feels spacious and I’m already planning on hosting holiday dinners at home. We recommend Archival Designs to anyone interested in building the home they’ve always wanted!

We absolutely adore the Kildare Place house plan. Made some modifications to make this home ours! Our house is the talk of the neighborhood. We host big parties every holiday and still get compliments from our friends and family. We searched for months and looked through hundreds of floor plans and this one had almost everything we wanted, and with the help of the great staff at Archival Designs we got exactly what we wanted!

FAQ

Can I modify this RV Carport Plan – 16x40 Post Frame RV Port with Pier Foundation now or later?

Absolutely. We offer in-house modification services to adjust layouts, room sizes, or expand garages before purchase. If you prefer to make adjustments during the construction phase, purchasing the CAD file package allows your local builder or architect to make on-site changes. Simply click 'Request a Modification' for a free quote.

How much will it cost to build this RV Carport Plan – 16x40 Post Frame RV Port with Pier Foundation and why aren't exact costs shown? 

Construction costs vary significantly ($150–$300+ per sq. ft.) based on your location, material choices, and local labor rates. Because site preparation and regional codes differ, it is hard to provide a universal cost always.

Will this RV Carport Plan – 16x40 Post Frame RV Port with Pier Foundation fit my lot, and can I add a basement or flip the layout?

You can check the 'Modifications' tab for width and depth requirements. To fit your site's orientation, most plans are available in a 'Right Reading Reverse' (mirrored) format. We also offer slab, crawlspace, and basement foundation adjustments for every design.

Do your plans meet building codes in my area and do I need a professional stamp?

Our plans meet or exceed national IRC (International Residential Code) standards. However, due to varying local requirements regarding seismic, wind (hurricane), or snow loads, house plans do not come with a professional architect’s or engineer’s seal. Most municipalities require a review and stamp by a local licensed professional to obtain a building permit.

Are plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical drawings included?

We provide the architectural and schematic electrical framework, but HVAC and plumbing layouts are not included. Because local codes and climate-specific systems vary significantly across the country, these are best finalized by your local subcontractors to ensure your home’s systems are optimized for your specific site and energy requirements.

Why should I choose Archival Designs and are the plans guaranteed?

With over 40 years of experience, Archival Designs provides high-quality, builder-ready designs that balance aesthetic elegance with structural integrity. We offer a Best Price Guarantee, a 10% discount for military and first responders, as well as builder discounts for life. And loyalty perks for pro builders. All plans are designed to comply with the IRC codes at the time of their creation. Learn more about our Best Price Guarantee.
