    • @jimichip
      @jimichip 3 роки тому +2

      Thanks Zack,
      One of the main reasons we went for screws in this situation was because we built them on the floor and then lifted them up and due to the weight of each section if we were to nail it only then it’s likely that the nails would pull out here and there and then we would have to spend time checking it all over and possibly re fixing some parts. With the screws it’s a little more expensive and the initial process takes slightly longer but we know that when it has been stood in position it is 100% accurate.

      We’ve strapped the plate down with bat straps externally and then the render carrier board will be continued from the timber frame down over the brick building as it is only rendered single skin brick work which has been prone to moisture ingress in the past so we’re trying to eradicate that with the render carrier board and silicone render covering the lot.

    I'd be interested to know the construction of the garage walls please. Are they 100mm block with piers every so often, standard cavity wall construction etc? Also, what provides the timber frame walls with their racking resistance if you aren't using OSB or plywood sheathing? I've not seen render carrier board used as sheathing for racking resistance before. Maybe all will become clear in later vids. Cheers guys

    • @SkillBuilder
      @SkillBuilder  3 роки тому +2

      Hi Steve
      This is a heavy duty reinforced board that was specified for the racking resistance. The thinner stuff is no good unless the walls are lined on the inside with OSB and then plasterboard. The EWI store has all the tech specifications The following is from their website.
      Many of the boards can be used as sheathing boards. Some manufactures such as RCM have different boards for different applications, while others only offer a cement board for sheathing application.
      These differences occur because some boards are tested for racking strength, some are tested for the use of thin coat render systems and some are tested for both. Using insulation on sheathing boards means an insulation material such as Mineral Wool has been installed onto a suitable sheathing board.
      These systems are normally found installed on non-traditional substrates like metal frame or wooden frame buildings. The cement board is installed onto the non-traditional structure using the appropriate fixing method. Once the boards are secured, the insulation system can be applied to this substrate. The insulation boards are securely fixed to the sheathing board (in keeping with the manufacturer’s fixing pattern) using mechanical fixings and adhesive.

      The joints on the last job were the weak point with some of the adhesive being kicked off so James decided to tape over the glued joints for extra protection. As it turned out the floor was in the dry before the rain came. The thing is, you never know what the weather will do and James is all about the belt and braces approach.

      No the condensation will form on the cold side of the insulation but in this case the room above is heated. That lead roof also makes a good vapour barrier.

      It depends on the size, position and distance from the boundary. It is always best to ask.

      It will either be permitted development or planning permission. Whichever one it is you’ll need to notify the relevant authorities.
