    We framed the interior of our Carolina Carport also, but in a different way. We're going with closed cell spray foam for insulation....beware of condensation on the inside of the metal siding if you are going to heat/cool that space. Lots of good info (and failed attempts) on YT on mold prevention, but basically 2" of closed cell foam directly on the metal is proven.

      @hworkmaniv88 Рік тому

      Can't you just run vapor barrier on the outside of the frame under the siding and mitigate that issue? Concern with spray foam directly on the metal is that now you've made a structure that cannot be resided without having to be reinsulated. And its metal at the end of the day its going to rust and eventually need to be replaced.

    I am glad I stumbled across your videos. I am retired Navy (30 years) and have my forever home and just had the forever shop built. It is 40 x 60 and very well built to Texas Tornado standards. Lol. It already has the 2" foam insulation sprayed in, but now I have to run electrical and trying to decide whether to frame up the walls or not. Everything in there will be on casters, so I can move things around as needed. Thank you again for your videos.

      Really appreciate your videos though. I am in the process of putting up a 24x40 metal building that I am going to be converting into a “barndominium”. I’m planning to run electrical, plumbing and wood frame the inside similar to how you did. Planning to use spray foam as an insulation and then drywall and finishing. These videos for a DYI’er are super helpful and I will definitely be referencing these for the future!! I don’t feel comfortable doing the electrical and plumbing myself but the framing is something I was worried about doing because I’ve only done small wood projects like tables before but you do a really good job explaining everything, thank you for the content!!

    How did you get around the condensation with the metal siding and the concrete? We're doing a blueboard that has a moisture barrier to prevent condensation and molding. Also ran a sealant along the bottom sill plate (which due to code, couldn't be a pressure treated lumber) with a plast sheathing. To help prevent moisture damge and allowed condensation to exit.

    • @brettleybuilt
      @brettleybuilt  2 роки тому +2

      I used Tapcons and Redhead anchors. You could use either one for securing walls inside like this structure or walls in a basement. If you were anchoring a shed or something that will stand alone, definitely use the Redhead anchors to anchor the wood the the cement. I used a combination of both because I had them. I purposely didn't attach the wood structure to the shed as I didn't want any stress on the metal building. The metal structure stands completely by itself inside the metal building.

    Just wondering cost wise why not just go with traditional stick built garage if you are framing all the walls traditionally?

    • @brettleybuilt
      @brettleybuilt  Рік тому +3

      The main factor we considered was excavation. We live on a rock pile and digging holes and footers have been a nightmare in the past. Another factor was sheeting the building with osb. With prices so high at the time, we calculated the area of osb for walls and roof and it was right around $2300. The siding and roofing were basically included in the price of the metal building where if we stick built or did a pole barn these would have had the cost of a roof and siding or metal. The building was $9,300 installed, with a garage door and man door. I got a usable building in a day. I work a lot so if I had to find time after work to build the building I probably wouldn't have even had trusses set at this point. This was a really special case for us but others have reached out to us saying they have done the same thing. Here we thought we were the only ones.

My son went to Bellingham Technical School and learned electronic instrumentation and makes $150 to $200.0000 a year my daughter is an accountant for a large firm making good money. Her husband is a manager at a different accounting firm. The boy was 16 and the girl 9 and when they came here they couldn’t speak a word of English and now are leaders in the pack. I worked heavy construction on roads and bridges and my wife a waitress then owner of Thai restaurant. We have worked hard put both thru school bought 2 homes and helped both kids into home’s ‘they are buying.

      I purposely didn't attach the wood to the building. The buildings are designed to hold themselves up and have their own loads. If you want to attach the wood to the legs, I would get 2x4s, rip them down to 2 1/2 inches wide, and screw them into the inside of the legs with metal self tapping screws. You can then attach your framing to those boards. I still recommend stick framing so not to burden the building with extra weight.

      @@brettleybuilt, I'm not getting it? If you have a slab poured, why can't you build a wood framed shop on it without building a metal shop first? I'm not being funny, I really don't get it. Where does extra digging or excavation come in?

    you just built another structure inside the other.
    why not just build the structure with wood. then put metal siding up? we call that a pole barn around these parts.

      Why don't you come over and dig through the shale that I poured the pad over?

    I can appreciate your time and effort in this build, but you should have done more research as to how to build the wall especially around your main panel for the building. Your tie in should be done with a 2x4 like you did at the bottom plate. The top plate should have been done the same way.

    . Why wall studs ❓🤔☹️ I'd think 24 in or even 48 inch 😀 wall stud ❗💪🏻
    Especially if your using any type of spray foam.❓😃 Unless your building HOME inside there.

    I don't understand why you're wasting money and materials to build a 2x4 wall next to an existing metal wall why don't you just attach whatever you're going to attach that stupid 2x4 wall to the metal wall and save a lot of money material and environment what you are doing is a waste of time money materials and resources

      Sure, let me attach drywall 48 inch on center to the metal and put 2 and a half inches of insulation in the wall.
