Default Building 50'x50' storage shed for SUPER GROW
....Just kidding!

I'm building an 8'x8' storage shed out of particle board and some sheet metal roofing. I plan on putting some cheap flooring over the sub floor made of particle board. I was just going to use drywall screws and latex caulking to seal this up. I was going to have some white/reflective wall paper as a weather proofing.

Is particle board too cheap? Does anyone have any ideas as to what might go wrong with this?

All airflow and temperature, ect. are going to be very exact. Does particle board allow for a humidity controlled environment?

Any additional thoughts would be appreciated!

you've probably thought of this, but you should probably water seal (polyurethane) the particle board, it will absorb water and rot pretty easily.

Oh all of my airflow will be sealed with caulking, like I said. What is ridiculous about the storage?

Well no matter what you use, with an 8x8x? size you're going to need studs, but you mentioned a subfloor so I think you know that IMHO I don't think particle board would work out well outside. It's just not the right stuff for the job ya know try like 3/4 pressure treated. Whatever you decide on good luck

Your right. And I am aware of that. I guess I'm being skimpy. My next choice was pressure treated, but I am trying to keep the cost low. Any other concerns?

Oh and it is 8x8x8 with traditional descending roof, so at the tallest part is around 12' tall or less. I forget what the "decending roof top" is really called haha.
