hey mate, from experience you wont beat a block wall with timber roof and not an awful difference in price from steel frame. The problem with the steel frame and cladding is condensation, even with non drip cladding the moisture builds up and flows to the timber purlins and tends to drop.
Starting a shed myself and going with a double leaf block with cavity and traditional roof.

it aint often i agree with Anto
but i 100% agree on this , my own garage is block with insulated roof and its comfy all year round , know a few lads with the steel jobbies and on winter mornings its like it has rained inside the garage from the moisture/condensation that builds up on the cladding ,
