Corrugated roof storage bldg | Ask The Experts Forum

Buckley Hughes 12/31/2012	I am considering insulating with Prodex (foil backed bubble wrap) on the underside of an existing storage facility that amounts to about 75,000 square feet. The reason is major condensation issues in the winter and spring. The corrugated metal is sitting directly on 2x6" rafters , but because the rafters run near flat and are parallel to the ridge, the corrugated metal condensation drips down the rafter and onto the stored items causing a problem. So...Is this the correct material to use or could you recommend something else? Or any other solution for the fix?
