Here in Oswego County NY in the town of Orwell I don't need a building permit for a building to be used for 'agricultural purposes'. When I built this shed in 2008 that definition included housing the sawmill and lumber, and tractors etc. The main part of the building is 20x29 approximately. I used rough cut 2x8x12 or 13 on 24" centers, some aspen poplar, some red pine. It has held up well so far and was quite cheap to put up since we had the mill. I don't know what the laws are in your area. I don't like trusses myself because of the expense and the wasted space in between them, but they do go up fast. If you were using 'boughten' lumber I'd think you'd want a 2x10 surfaced to equal the strength of a 2x8 rough cut. This is just my experience, others may be different. By the way, the guy in the last photo is not Amish, he just has an Amish style hat. Zach
