A METAL building?

** Yup.

Like ........... how hot does THAT get out where you are?

** Not as hot as you might think.  Certainly nowhere near as hot as the
attic of an ancient tar paper roof house does.  Now THAT'S hot.

Can you lean
against the walls in the summer?

** I suppose you could if you wanted to.  If I wnat to rest I prefer to go
inside the airconditioned office and put my feet up on my desk.

Fry eggs on the roof?

**  My wife keeps bugging me about solar power.  Maybe I'll let her try it.
LOL.

Seriously, a metal building is relatively inexpensive and goes up quick.
(Not as quick as the contractor tells you, but hey what did I exepct from a
contractor anyway.  LOL)  They really are no hotter than any other building.
This one was assembled with 4" of fibergalss sandwiched under the skin and
the roof is polar white in color which reflects an amazing amount of heat.
Frame in some office space and you are good to go.

Want to know what all the produce coolers that run down here are made of?
You guessed it.  Sheet metal over steel frame.  We are talking upto 100,000
sqf of space refrigerated down to the mid 30s.  Guess who grows a lion's
share of the produce the rest of you guys eat all winter.  They might have
just a tad bit more insulation than I do, but...
