Getting ready to build 40x90 pole barn for machinery. It will be 3 sided with ridge vent and soffit. Am I going to have condensation issues? If so, what can i put under steel roofing to prevent raining on equip/hay? I might enclose 30ft for possible garage/workshop down the road with wood burner or radient floor heat in concrete. I've had some people say it will have plenty of air circulation with 60ft of open bays, but then I've also heard the opposite! Please help

You should be okay with the proper circulation. Be sure to keep the conditioned space very separate from the unconditioned space and control the vapor migration from the conditioned space. If you do that, you shouldn't have any issues. Eric Novotny
