Heard back from Tim Comes that 2x4 studs will be fine for the barn walls.  However, each of the roof hips will need to be double 1¾″ x 14″ LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams.  Those critters be H E A V Y!!!!  My back is hurting already…  Even heavier (though the tractor forklift should be able to place them in position), the 16 feet wide barn door header will have to be double 1¾″ x 16″ LVL’s.
