Well finally a subject I can relate to. This is what I do. The best dimensions I found for most people is 4’ wide so you can reach both sides. It can be as long as you wish but I like my stuff level. I do use treated lumber but I buy the Hardy Board siding and screw it to the insides. As for locations that is easy you want and need the sun. I ask clients about their summer and winter equinox and they usually have no idea what I’m talking about. Another thing is dogs. If that is the case I put 4x4’s on the corners and put 6x6 hog wire which comes in 20 lengths 3’ and 5’. I like this stuff because you can reach in and get your tomatoes and bell peppers out and it gives the green beans something to climb on.
I will draw up some blueprints for you if you wish. It’s what I do and a hobby.
