I would say the height would be wasted. They will climb a bit if not too lazy but they're much more ground dwelling. The UV strip is way too short and you would need to be sure the starter unit would be the correct wattage for running a strip across the entire length of the viv. I would imagine you would lose a lot of heat too with all that height - could you get the basking spot hot enough? Might have to significantly lower the heat bulb. Width is good, might want it 2ft deep though to make it more comfy for an adult Beardie to turn around. Just some thoughts.
