    There is no way to tell since we don't know if you are on an island in the Pacific or in South Mississippi. Simplest thing is to get 3 bids from contractors. As an alternative, you can price individually and then get labor only bids. You can also Google "approximate building costs" and find a lot of info. With a 32 X 32 above loaded, you will also have to consider additional support below. Average building costs as a guess $85-100 per sg.ft. bare walls. With a 34 ft. truss you will most likely need some crane rental time.
