Will the width of the ridge not depend a bit on the pitch of the roof?
Possibly,roof pitch is 17.5degrees
I like the look of these

Now that looks very interesting if the cover can stick being up so high. Not made any definite plans here yet but looking at putting up a 42m wide, 55m long cow building, but still early days yet. Have you had a price for the Huesker ridge yet?

Looks a much tidier way of doing it than just standard roof lights.
My shed will be 60m long,ideally I wanted 78m long but I don't want to borrow any money so stuck with what I can afford.
Not priced the Huesker ridge yet only found it this morn.

Had a quick look after seeing your post and see Inter Shape do something similar. Also did a quick search for curved polycarbonate sheets to see if something could be made on farm. Really need to get some advice first.
Are you going for a new shed or a used portal frame.

Elub, if your making the shed yourself you can make a dome light yourself quite easily rather buy a commodity item. We used to buy fabricated vaults for canopies some years back at considerable cost then thought, hang-on, we can do this ourselves, so did. If you want to PM me an email address I can email you back in the week details of how to do it.Going to make the frame ourselves,did do with the last ones.
