Northwest Ohio | Am building a shop, Morton on a foundation wall. Posts are 5.5" thick. 1.5" thick nailers running horizontally, on both inside and outside of post. Morton's insulation package typically goes with 6" insulation. Was thinking about trying to get thicker insulation (8"?). The way I figure, I'd have up to 8.5" between outside tin and inside tin, in all locations except between the inner and outer nailers where it would neck down to the 5.5" post width (and I could probably raise this to 7" minimum if I stagger the inner and outer nailers).
Was wondering what other guys have did for the wall insulation (I think we're going with 15" blown in the ceiling).
Also was wondering what others did in terms of a perimeter vapor barrier? Inside of outside? Directly against tin? Morton's package typically has 4mil ... is this thick enough to do any good?
Thanks in advance for any replies. | |
