Firewood barns in an ideal world

Hi all

 

I am looking into putting up a steel framed barn / storage shed for kit and firewood storage/drying I was wondering what would be the best walling to use etc to maintain air flow.

 

obviously the kit side will be blocked in.

 

what are your ideas please

 

Cheers

A building with large overhangs around all sides and no walls of any kind would be the ultimate for airflow. Literally just a roof but with plenty of overhang past the columns to stop rain getting to the logs.

 

A good wind or, a sunny day should sort out wet logs.. which begs the question why have a building at all?..

 

I'd build a shed for my gear, and leave the logs outside.. tarp sheet if you must keep rain off the tops of logs...

 

 

Mind, speaking as a one man band here, not much use for a building to house tons of anything never mind logs..

That works ok as long you don't want to sell them directly after a few days of constant rain, especially in winter.
