Of course, but you will be somewhat limited in the future. It is possible to have a wood storage in something that is not a building by having the ceiling height so low that one cannot spend extended time in the shed.
Yes, that's easier than cutting anything. I have some lumber lying around. Thinking of putting up a 45x70 in the front and a 28x45 in the middle, Alternatively, placing a 45x70 on edge in the front and having a horizontal 45x70 in the middle.
A 2x3" on edge up front and something that supports approximately in the middle will probably be good. If you don't want metal or think it's too difficult to cut, I can suggest Onduline, which is a bitumen sheet with dimensions of 95x200cm. If you lay the roof with sideways slope instead, 2.5m metal should work without cutting, and you can get two sheets for a 500 on Byggmax.
Of course, but you become a bit limited in the future. It's possible to have a wood storage in something that isn't a building by having the roof height so low that one cannot stay for a longer time in the shed.
Now, it's not a major problem to tear down the old pergola/woodshed if you want to build something else in the future or if some stickler considers it a building (or saw off the posts so the roof height becomes 170 or something if you feel like it).
Sure, but you become a bit limited in the future. You can have a wood storage in something that is not a building as the ceiling height is so low that you cannot stay for a longer time in the shed.
Yes, that is an alternative. I am basing it on the need I have right now, and if that changes, it probably won't be too difficult to modify or remove the wood storage.
A 2x3" on its edge at the front and something that supports roughly in the middle should be good. If you don't want metal or think it's too difficult to cut, I can suggest Onduline, which is a bitumen sheet with dimensions 95x200cm. If you lay the roof with side slope instead, 2.5m metal should work without cutting, and you can get two sheets for five hundred at Byggmax.
I'll check out Onduline, thanks for the tip! I've never heard of it, but is it completely waterproof and just needs to be screwed up, or?
Surely it holds, but from a computational perspective, it's hard to say since there are no material properties for decking in the same way as there are for construction timber, glulam, etc.
Your 70x70 pillars will not buckle anyway (calculated on C14 construction timber).
A wood shed might not need to be calculated? I think it makes sense if the original poster can reuse a surplus pergola and, based on experience, it will surely hold for a wood shed even if it is not built from graded timber.
I would even say that the construction shown would hold with trp 20 even without any roof slope, although it would be advantageous with a slope of 70mm (due to available mtrl) considering the pergola dimensions.
I will check out onduline, thanks for the tip! I've never heard of it, but is it completely waterproof and just needs to be screwed on?
Available at Bauhaus and it's waterproof, maybe 10% more expensive than 0.4 sheet metal, but it's economical to choose a sheet that minimizes waste.
Onduline fits in a car without using a trailer and that might be something to consider if you don't have your own trailer and just want to go to the hardware store once.
Used/leftover sheet metal could be a sensible option for a woodshed if someone nearby has spare sheets.

Yes, it certainly sounds more convenient than lugging home a sheet metal. I lack both a trailer and a tow hitch, so I'm somewhat limited when it comes to that stuff.

Bauhaus has sheet metal that imitates tiles and is approximately 107x133cm, which can likely be transported in a modern sedan or on a bicycle trailer.
This is how the construction looks now, if anyone is interested...
It's taken a heck of a long time due to bad weather and kids. There are a few small things left, like securing the sheets properly, possibly a gutter, and some finer details. At least it's ready to be used as a wood shed now. The roof overhang turned out a bit small at the front and back (barely 25 cm) but I'm hoping the rain that comes in dries quickly considering how much wind can blow through.
I had to buy roofing felt, plank sheathing, and paneling; the rest is built from what I had at home.
Now that I'm finished with the woodshed, I realized it would be good to have some lighting there.
Does anyone have tips on a battery-powered lamp for outdoor use that can be mounted on the ceiling/wall? It doesn't need to have a motion sensor or anything like that.
Good idea!
This is how my woodshed turned out. The blue is a tarp to prevent ground moisture.

Nice
are there big issues with ground moisture?
never had this despite having my wood directly on the ground in the sheds...
Or do you have better insights?
