I have a 60X88X16 pole building put up 10 years ago. Trusses are on 8' centers which was the max spacing for snow loading here (east central Wisconsin). 50 year snow load warranty. 10 skylights which provide all kinds of light even on cloudy days. No need to be turning lights on during the daytime. Ventilation is key to prevent condensation and moisture buildup that would do a lot of damage to your equipment. If you don't ventilate properly, you might just as well let your equipment sit outside. Mine has a continuously vented ridge and 2 foot side overhangs with vented soffits. This allows air to enter through the vented soffits and exit through the vented ridge. By going with 16' high sides and doors I can get my combine in with the hopper doors extended. Also made door(s) wide enough to accommodate the grain header so I can just drive or back the combine in without changing anything. Which you might want to do, especially if it's going to rain or you have to do some work on it, or both. 16' high sides necessitated 3 laminated 8" side columns. 6" would be OK for 14' but not for 16'. I believe laminated poles are better for both strength and absorption of pressure treating. I will also add, much to the chagrin of some bone headed posters, that I have a black roof. It facilitates heating for faster air movement and snow melting. And no, It doesn't get too hot inside if the end doors are opened. It's so high that the floor area of the shed is whatever the outside temp is. Nothing rusts inside my shed. Period. I did not need a vapor barrier under 5" reinforced concrete floor (12" at entrances) because my shed sits on a dome shaped sandy hill which unfortunately limited the length to 88'. Big door on each end, no side doors. Can push 16' high doors open and closed with one finger.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
