Free! Free is good! I just took a look at our cover - about 36' or so and we have 8 posts. Surely 10 trusses should give you plenty of support. The metal roofing would probably be less $ since you might not need as heavy roofing plywood and then the metal over. You might check with some roofing companies and see if they have leftovers from jobs that they'd like to get rid of for not much $. The labor would certainly be more using shingles, and you should have tar paper under the shingles. Any connection with someone in the building design field that could give you some guidance on structure and strength? Suggestion....don't wait until July and August to do this like we did. It was a killer.
