I am lofting floorboards downstairs for a new floor structure so plan to reuse the original boards in the loft to give useable storage areas.
The loft is not yet insulated and I had toyed with insulating between the rafters but am now sticking to traditional quilt between the joists.
What is deamed sufficient. I wanted to keep it simple and go for 100mm between the existing joists then cross batten with 4x2's to allow a 2nd 100mm layer of quilt before laying the floor boards. Is that good enough?
Also what centers can I get away with on the cross timbers - I don't want to go through the floor boards and through the ceiling. Is 600mm pushing it?
