Hi All - I am currently converting my garage, the insulation spec I have is for 25mm x 47 mm battens with 62.5mm Kingspan K118 Insulated Plasterboard attached to the battens.
The issue is that one of my garage walls has a slight outwards lean, i'd say maybe 5-6 cm from bottom to top, wall height is 2.2m. I'd prefer to correct this but am not 100% sure of the best approach. Concerned that using packers behind the battons where i screw it in would mean the batten may flex between fixing points meaning when the board goes on top I may get issues. Have considered using firrings but of course the slope is not constant from top to bottom which could well make that tricky.
I am doing this with building regs so am looking for the correct way to approach this that would keep Mr Inspector hapyp.
