So why does it have to have covered ridge.Building a new cubicle shed which would have covered ridge in shed over cubicles.This will make beds wet other option is spaced sheeting but will make shed dark.Was thinking of normal roof with skylights and yorkshire boarding all round shed is a roof with apex over cubicles.
Put a lip to stop rain blowing ingSorry it could have open ridge with mushroom canopy but on other shed rain blows in

Ventilation is work outable.Seen this done before but with the cap and lip you would wonder what air would be going out
How big is the mushroom canopy?Sorry it could have open ridge with mushroom canopy but on other shed rain blows in
Thats the one!!
we’ve made similar here but made the gap bigger and used Perspex so it acts as a light ridge.
Biggest problem with gapped sheeting is you cant put skylight making shed dark.Our shed at home is just gapped tin but always felt that too much rain gets in this way. On a wet day the beds even look damp due to the rainfall getting in. Always liked the idea of having the set ups like shown above
Looks an excellent job have you skylights on shed or does enough light come trough on ridge.we’ve made similar here but made the gap bigger and used Perspex so it acts as a light ridge.View attachment 1004059View attachment 1004060
We had a gapped roof on one shed which was fine when new but as moss built up it let more and more water in. No simple ,effective and practical way of keeping it clean so bit the bullet and re roofed the side over the cubicles conventionally and left the ridge open, luckily in our case the ridge was over the centre of a scrape passage.Our shed at home is just gapped tin but always felt that too much rain gets in this way.

Far better a bit of rain blowing in during rough weather than condensation when the air outside is still - A cattle shed is best built with a timber or galvanised frame.Put a lip to stop rain blowing ing
