I get that it's for a garage and it doesnt look like its weather facing, but is there really no need for a full install? and by that i mean adding sheathing and a vapor barrier
It was more about security for the lady. originally, she had a tarp there with a door and she just wanted it secure and neat. I hear what you are saying but, in this case, it wasn't necessary.
Hey Mate, Do you need to install Sarking / Isolation Paper on the timber wall? and do i also need to have a cavity in between my stud wall and Cement sheet for moisture? cant seem to find the answer if i need both or none. Thank you
sarking is a good idea. I didn't because it is a simple close for a garage. a cavity would be for a wall that would be an exterior wall on a habital building. mine was not a cavity because carports are not considered habital
It is one of a couple of methods. You can get a hardiflex cutter or they do make blades that cut hardiflex but the blades are super expensive compared to the grinding blase.
How do you remove a fibro sheet on both the exterior and interior of a house ( some might have asbestos), and some don't. Then replace it with a new sheet of non asbestos fibro sheet. Someone told me to use a hole puncher to remove the old sheet.
What about longevity of the studs? do you think that it will last the same af is osb sheeting or any wood board. It seems to be that ciment board let more moisture to transpass.
I went back recently, and it looks like new. The studs are treated pine so they are designed to be used outside so I cannot see a problem there. The fibre cement is painted which makes it waterproof and it is not weather side limiting the amount of water hitting it, I cannot speak for the other product but this has been very good.
Mate I hope you live in Alice or somewhere it never rains. Where is yr flashing and vapour barrier? Cement sheet is no way water proof w paint on it. Acrylic render isn’t even water proof and it’s a hell of a lot tougher than paint on cement sheet.
it wasn't put there for water proof. the owner wanted something to close it cheaply that would be secure as she had a tarp there before. the area is a carport, the wall is under the eaves and not weather side. it severed her purpose perfectly.
Had to cut the sheets so they landed on the studs when you screw them and to make it fit neatly to the pillar which wasn't level. The joiners were the right size and just fit over the edge. They were the correct ones for 6mm boards.
Perfect how to ..just what I needed. Thankyou
Good job, looks good 👍🏼
Nice video bro .Great work ,example on point . Job well done mate👍💯💯💯😎
Awesome how to mate, subbed with thanks 👍
That is perfect, may I know the thickness of the board?
Thanks much😊
The board is 6mm
Thanks much

What material is the joining strip? Thanks.
@@ctrader6 it is a 6mm joining strip you can get from the hardware store
Great video!

@@dennisperrie thank you for that =D
It looks like the grinder is fast and effective to cut this material.

well.if it is asbestos you need to use the proper personal protective gear.
@dennisperrie I certainly will, but can Fibro cement sheeting be removed but using a hole puncher?
@@Mal-r5q I have never seen it.
What was the product you used to pre-glue the board?
6m. Hardiflex sheets. 1200 wide at 2.4 long. I simply used liquid nails.
@@dennisperrie Thanks man

@@dennisperrie so you should use this kind of sheeting only with treated studs, right?
@@danielroque1669 yes without a vapour barrier I would use traeted pine.
Love it,
Will do for the storage but can only fit 4.5mm.
Do you thing it will be strong enough?
Thanks
Yes but I would put the studs a bit closer together. Maybe 400mm apart so it doesn't have to span to far.
Thank you. That was just what I wanted to see. We are doing the exact same thing. So I guess you didn't use any flashing on the bottom?
No it was more for security. It also not weather side and the water runs away.
Love the channel. When painting the fibre cement sheets, do you need to prime first or is primer not needed?
I didn't primer these as it was a cheap close in for the lady however, I am not a painter. I would check. Primer certainly would make the job better.
thanks boss

had to spend 5mins grinding the edges of each board to get the joiner to fit clearly wrong ones

@@dennisperrie there was supposed to be an I at the start of my sentence i did that
yeah, I was a little confused. you got the rebate ones , they can be flushed for seamless joints.@@dandanwilliams
