Am designing a steel structure.
Need a bit of help from someone in the know.

What kind of help?

How you expect to design a structure when you are (self admitadly)
unqualified is a bit odd...

Ask a specific question and you may get an answer...

Most steel buildings are designed with computer programs that compute
the loads, and other requirements, using inputs based on location,
style, materials, and codes. It is *not* a trivial task.

Is this to be an insulated structure? There are many details to
consider or serious issues can occur. If it is in a cold climatte the
conductivity of the metal framing can cause dark spots and even
condensation and mold. The average R-value is also very low.

And yes what type of structure will it be?

Could you make that a bit less specific? There's almost information
in there. ;)
