Done thousands of square feet of steel. First, avoid home depot if you can. Order full length cut to the inch steel. If you are ordering trusses, order basd on the top chord run length (making sure it includes overhang). Figure screws at about 85 per square, purlins spaced at 24 inches on center. I recommend bubble pack underlayment if it will be heated (Plyco company plyfoil, single bubble, white side down). Order the end trims so that one piece will get cut in half and folded over at the peak, and the rest figure accordingly. Ridge cap with outside closures (with adhesive is nice). Max length allowable is 40" without end seams. If you have to have ends seams, make each run a 1/3 - 2/3 and alternate (2/3 - 1/3) so that four sheets don"t lap at one point. Anything else you think I can halp with, let me know.
