Is there any reason why I shouldn't use Onduliine vertically for
cladding my shed? Aesthetically it isn't an issue because I live in a
very rural area and lots of barns round here are made from black
corrugated materials so mine would blend in.

Thanks as always

Main problem would be it only comes in 6 foot lengths, so ok if you
are vertically challenged!

Have just heard back from Onduline and they say there is no problem
using it vertically. You just overlap the sheets as with a roof.

I've used Onduline on a shed roof and found it very quick to install
and considerably less hassle than felting. I take it that the OP sees
these parameters as being a bonus over say weatherboarding plus no
maintenance.

My concern would be impact damage - rooves are well out of the way,
walls aren't, and wood is considerably more tolerant to the odd bash
where Onduline would fracture through. There is also the downside
that a ladder couldn't be laid against it to access the roof.
