Down to the details on pole barn for farm use

Posted by Mark2 on April 28, 2005 at 07:53:10 from (65.223.237.178):

Working out the details on my pole barn, would like to hear from owners or builders on some detailed questions

40 x 64 x 14....approx $22,000 installed no concrete, 1" overhang, 2 doors, windows in front (in Ohio)

Pretty set on ridge light....do you recommend also a vent in the rigde light or just the light?
If I went with under eave light, it would be on the north...is this OK?

What is the best and most economical roof insulation or vapor barrier? The foam insulation sheets? Or the aluminum bubble wrap in rolls?

Some 6x6 poles are 28 feet long...some builders plan to use 3 ply laminated 2 x 6...some dont...hear it may be hard to get long poles that are straight? Any experience on this? Is it worth the extra for laminated posts?

Is there any value to 2x4 purlins every 2 feet or 2x6 purlins every 3 feet.

Is it typical to pay sales tax in ohio on the barn used for farm use?
