Scratch building modern steel industrial building in HO?

[Ken Portner]

I plan to use Evergreen styrene corrugated siding sheets.

They come in different spacing sizes i.e. the space between the grooves- .40, .60, .80, etc.

Any suggestions as to what looks right for HO?

Also, who makes roof top details ? (vents, hvac units, piping)?

Some ideas on parts for you. Some parts are showing retired or OOS but you can still find them online.

The spacing you are referring to comes out to the following sizes in HO.

.040 = 3.5"

.060 = 5.25"

.080 = 7"

I would suggest you find a building with the type siding you prefer and measure the spacing to see which one is closest to what you need.
