Most stuff should fold down to 14 foot high, because that is what is allowed down the road.
Most easy to use/insulate doors need at least 2 feet so you need a 16 foot building.
Now if you want to pull a 14 foot high combine in the shed and work on it, you will bust your head open on rafters/ceiling if your building is 16 foot.
Your lights and possibly radiant heater in the ceiling will be in the way.
Any overhead crane needs at least 2 feet room.
A lot of equipment had some bits near 16 feet high, like combines or a full bale basket or the like. It is nice to be able to run thrm in the shed without worrying about folding stuff down before wrecking the door and machine.
So I would think you would want at least an 18 foot wall, to give you a 16 foot door opening, and head room.
If you plan on using it for real work and with a crane inside now is the time to make it 20 feet, you can't add on vertically at all easy later......
It is easy to spend your money, but think carefully. My relatives farm small, but they got a good deal on a pull type sprayer. It fits in their 12 foot shed door by a couple inches, in their 14 foot building. Don't under build if you do plan on doing work out of it. Remember to allow for headers, trim, door frames, and such, doors get much smaller than the wall height....... Same on width, I put up a shed with a 24 foot wide door, turns out the finished widh opening is more like 23.5 feet - boy do I miss that extra 6 inches I thought I was getting!

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
