- I go through the process to install the wall and roof sheathing on my 10x16 barn style shed. I'm using 7/16ths OSB sheathing for the walls and 19/32nds OSB Sheathing for the roof. My wall studs are on 16 inch centers and my roof rafters are on 24 inch centers.

What are your thoughts in sheathing the walls first before adding the roof trusses. I've heard sheathing the walls first adds much needed stability "square"ness of the wall before supporting the load of the roof trusses and rafters.
I recommend watching the entire video. It's informative and very well done.
Your wife Jenny~ joining with you building together looks so wonderful. Good job❤
A stellar job, I liked the clip of the groundhog smart move taking the extra steps to install the mesh to keep them out. Wish we did that, have groundhogs living under ours. Your filming, editing, diagrams and explanations are first rate one of the better channels on UA-cam 👍🏽
This is an EXCELLENT video with a flawless explanation. Thank you.
Looks great! Building a similar shed of 8x14. Just started sheathing the roof
Critical thought. Hurricane ties are a good idea but use nails not screws. Even though it’s a shed. Nails have a stronger sheer strength.
Yes, agreed, unfortunately I didn't film it, but I did use a mix of nails and screws on the hurricane ties. You should use the manufacturer recommended nails.
Simpson makes screws you can use, but those aren’t them…
How much do you think you save by not buying a kit?
thousands and going on the cheap like Karl is scrounging lumber and finding killer deals on stuff even more.
Did you anchor the foundation to the earth in any way. Did not see that part.
Found it in the first video.
Rebar into the earth.
You think that should be ok?
Hi Karl,
thanks for these clear videos, I learn a lot from them.
I am stuck with the fact of how to make the truss for the roof though.
In your part 4 video you said you made it with your dad and the construction of it can be found in your last video.
But I can't find this back, have you posted this one yet?
Thanks again for the clear explanation.
I am learning from you and the comments I get to read.
Grts from Belgium :-)
Hello! Glad to help. This is the video, I hope the link works. It's called "how to build gambrel trusses | barn style rafters" ua-cam.com/video/2v7KYyCkrIs/v-deo.htmlsi=qN3Ph2db1vYeewAF
your comment about the misconception of OSB being compromised when allowed to get soaked like your did is a misstatement. you went to explaining how the OBS swells when getting wet, this swelling is the delaminating of the wood fibers of the osb board being broke apart by the water/swelling and compromising the strength of the osb. there is specific osb board made for flooring underlayment which is capable of shedding water up to 180 days. there is a reason for that and why it is used. when the flooring gets waterlogged like yours clearly was it compromises the osb especially in flooring and as a sheer wall panel which the obs is in your exterior walls but being vertical it sheds the water better and snuffers less. inspectors will have flooring ripped up when it becomes compromised by excessive water logging and not properly covered. still great build to follow along on. the walls you can always go thinner and the roof you need the size up thicker material especially if your in snow country.
Where did you get the little white trim? Some of us may want to obtain this as well? Thanks
That's "drip edge" from home Depot. I mention it in more detail in the roofing video in this series.
MARVELOUS VIDEO. GOOD JOB GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY 🙏🇺🇸❤️
