Heres where Im up to so far
Floor
150x50 mm treated joists set on top of 100x100 mm treated timber bearers
joists at 400 mm centres
bearers laid in concrete base at 1800 mm apart set perpendicular to joists
50 mm polystyrene insulation fitted within joists and held in place by battens
joists covered by 18 mm water proof ply
Walls
100x50 mm softwood timber
115x15 mm treated softwood shiplap
breathable membrane
12mm stirling board osb
insulation within studwork
vapor barrier on inside
plasterboard
Pent Roof
