7 degrees here, done the job the last 37 years.We have 1 here at 4 or 5 degrees, was a factory we took down.
Its not Climate change proof though 😆7 degrees here, done the job the last 37 years.
No bother at all, few dairy farmer neighbours and a few front loaders and straps ser what could go wrongHow hard a job would it be to lift the round roof shed 4 feet say? Is there a way of doing the actual lifting and getting it into place, without it being completely sketchy
It might rise another few degrees with global warming!Its not Climate change proof though 😆
One fella used to lifting unchopped bales ends up with his tractor getting over turned, hey presto you end up with a completely new shed.No bother at all, few dairy farmer neighbours and a few front loaders and straps ser what could go wrong
Add on a 26ft wide and and have the shed 13 ft high you`ll have roof of 6 degree`s . Now make the shed only 21 ft wide and keep the height of 13 ft and your roof pitch will be 8.5 degree . Water wont flow up hill . If it was me i`d be going wide and low pitch . Use full lenght sheet`s and no issue`s with water getting under joint`s . Only reason for big roof pitches in shed`s is ventilation and snow . Ventilation is a not an issue in a straw shed . As for snow ..........I have a round shed and I want to put a lean 2 off 1 side of it, before I get somone who will do the job in for a look I want to get an idea of what size I can go for. The pillar it will be bolted to it 485cms from the top of the rsj where the current timber is to the concrete where it enters the ground, firstly how wide can I go and secondly what is the max height pillar I can use from ground level to top of pillar and I need as much roof height as possible so what I kind of mean is how flat would I get away with?

Was a post on some of the forums a few years back, fella got all organized & took into it 1 day & with plenty of help they had it lifted by that evening.How hard a job would it be to lift the round roof shed 4 feet say? Is there a way of doing the actual lifting and getting it into place, without it being completely sketchy
I added a second round roof, looks better in my opinion and no compromise on height. As for valleys, I would of course prefer not to have one but next best option was to make it wide enough to walk along for cleaning. If and when the gutter needs to be replaced it can be slid out and new one slid in, bit of work in it no doubt but can be done. Final thing is to keep the gutter end stop lower than along the main gutter, that way if outlet ever gets blocked, end will overflow and not overflow inside the shed.Is another round roof out of the question, be more expensive, but nothing as dear as the regret when working in a low lean-to shed.
Or would there be a fall in the ground away for the round roof shed so that you could lower the floor of the new shed

Looks like a farm with many interesting shed designsSaw this off the road the other day, I have a haybarn and like @Blackwater boy wouldn't mind a bit more roofspace there to just back in machinery or straw. It wouldn't be worth it coming off the existing pillars but if I went up and back a bit with it I think it would be a usable shed. View attachment 113506

Ya that's the guy. I like the idea, could probably be done a bit tidier.New inn?
I scrapped that idea I had it just was not worth it for what I would gain so the plan is a stand alone very simple lean 2 type new shed open to the north and do it next summer instead
That sounds like it might tidy up the job a bit, if you have a pic stick it up be interested to see what it's like.We did similar to this only we removed the lower sheet of tin on the curve and put the lean to under the top curve sheet, might have to through up a picture.
That is some very tasty workmanship. Can I ask who did the steel work for it?I added a second round roof, looks better in my opinion and no compromise on height.

James Walsh Engineering Kilavullen Mallow.That is some very tasty workmanship. Can I ask who did the steel work for it?
@redpower there's quite an extra bit of steel and sheeting required to raise it on the haybarn side so it's high enough on the front of the new lean to, a new free standing lean to might not cost much more and be a bit tidier looking. My hay barn is 75x25 what I was thinking of doing with it now instead is as the unrights are old and getting a little shook is to put 3 big uprights so only one in the middle then a big beam across the front making it more of an open shed that could be used to back machinery into.Saw this off the road the other day, I have a haybarn and like @Blackwater boy wouldn't mind a bit more roofspace there to just back in machinery or straw.

Are round roofed sheds banned/discouraged now in favour of A-frame?
