Fitted 5 diagonal braces in between the uprights, but also decided to fit osb board on the inside, should strenghen the structure.

Fitzroy, that sounds fab. After thinking about different materials for the roof, I have also decided on EPDM. Had a good price from Permaroof, Just thinking about the steel sheets and the condensation, probably not a good idea.
