I am investigating metal cladding or just replacing the 8 " wide 14' and 16' tongue and groove boards which are weathered at the ends and faces but not rotted. Do 16"and 14" footers exist ? or does one need have them custom sawed, and would that cost a mint. So any one cladded a barn with metal, or redone one in tongue and groove boards, what are the costs ? Does one remove the old barn boards or go over the top ? My barn is a 30 x 83 hip roof approx 40 ft tall at the peak. I like the idea of metal and not having to get it painted for a lifetime! Any input is greatly appreciated.

I just did mine in "R" Panel. This is the metal they use for commercial buildings everywhere. Anyway. Each sheet covers 3' wide and you can order it in any length you want. Here it cost me 32.00 per square (100 sq feet). If you want to calculate the price, find out how many square feet you need then divide by 100 x 1.067 x cost per sq. and it will be pretty close but to be even closer, since you have to determine the number of sheets you want and the length, you can get exact costs by figuring linear feet.

If you know the Linear feet you need then take the (linear feet x 3.22)/100 x cost per square.

Each Linear foot is 3.22 square feet because the material your paying for is a little wider so it will overlap and leave you a true 3' covering.

If you barn was 30' long and the side you wanted to do was 10' tall then you know you would need 300 Square feet or 3 squares x 32.00 x 1.067 = $102.43 (Again, multiplying by 1.067 takes in consideration of the overlap when calculating by sq. feet).

or 10 pieces at 10' long = 100 linear feet x 3.22
= 322 square feet or 3.2 square x $32.00 = 102.40

I paid $1.35/sq ft for 3'x10' 16oz. copper sheets. Doesn't take long to attach with screws. I used a nylon t washer to galvanically isolate the stainless screw from the copper. Leakage wouldn't have been a problem in my case but I ran a line of silicon inside the joints anyway, primarily to make sure I wouldn't have any siding noises. What I got was near permanence with zero maintenance. My kind of product. Same copper comes in 500# and 1000# rolls about 18" wide if you'd prefer the look of lapped siding. Kind of blinding initially. On this mountain I was accused of creating an aviation hazard.

Regarding your question, I recently bought 16' t&g treated for a customer. Wasn't anywhere near 8" wide though. Around here, most barns, if not sided with T-111, get lapped poplar, normally just air-dried. Then length depends on the logs. You want 20'? No problem, other than handling.
