I've built several buildings with poles or switch ties and used lumber and used tin. I don't think there are two alike but they shed weather. Some have the rafters running crossways with just the tin directly on, others have traditional rafters and either inch or two bys the other way. Just depends what material you have available. I am going to put another lean-to on the shop this month as soon as i can find some 12 foot 2 bys. For this I am planning to use 2x12s 20 fot long for rafters and then run 2x6s or 2x8s about 4-6 feet apart. I have another shed that has steel purlins and we put them 8 feet apart. You can't walk on the roof without useing a plank but what do i want to go up there for? It don't leak. Right now I have a dozen tractors housed and two pickups. And I don't have $200 of my own money in the whole works. OK, so I cheat, My landlord bought the new tin for the one building. It is the only one that we built with new material, 24 X 40 for less than $1500.
