Like sand through a sieve, our money is being wasted

OVER the last 50 years I have owned and constructed many industrial buildings. Mostly they were simple constructions with a steel frame and pitched roof and generally with a standard portal frame and flat insulated, usually a sandwich structure. So I am extremely upset that over all these years I had been making a big mistake and should have been constructing them with a barrel roof and bespoke framework, as it is now apparent that this is a much more cost-effective way of constructing a shed as against a standard virtually off-the-shelf designed pitch roof with a portal frame. Or so I assume, as this is how the new waste transfer shed at Longue Hougue is being constructed – and that must be more cost effective, otherwise why are the States building it this way?
