G.P. shed size

[kermit]

Hi All,

Looking to put up a general purpose, clear span building.
About 900 m2.
What is the best value size? We would like as much width as possible, 15 degree roof pitch.
Thanks.

Doesn't make a lot of difference. go for a 100ft x 100ft if you have the space

What do you envisage using it for, I ask only because a very wide span will need big steelwork and have a lot of roof volume, and if you are not going to utilise it stacking bales high etc, what is the point? 60ft span is an economic size to build and can still be split into 2 useful bunkers for storage.

Yes. that's why the query. Don't want excessive size / cost of steel.
Will be partly used for cattle & general storage, don't need too much height, bales can go elsewhere.
