I am about to design a storage shed to be placed on a playground and
would prefer to make the shed completely out of steel, including the
siding. Due to its location, kids will likely touch its surface and I
am concerned with it being painfully hot to the touch in the summer
sun. I have several questions. First, why does steel surfaces appear
to get hotter to the touch than comparable wood, masonry surfaces?
What techniques, materials, coatings would anyone recommend to reduce
the surface temperature due to the sun? thanks for any and all input.
