Hi Guys,
I am building a detached double garage with proper foundations, a concrete floor and cavity walls with insulation in the cavity to make it warmer when tinkering inside.
I read elsewhere that it's normal to close the cavity at the door opening with brick/block as opposed to leaving it open and fitting cavity closures due to the weight of the door.
Firstly, is that correct and if so, should there be DPC running vertically up and across the door aperture as it effectively bridges the cavity?
