Interior/Exterior Walls on a Pole Barn

[ChiefZachary]

Hi all,

 

I am designing a pole barn structure, but I would like to edit my interior/exterior walls to where there is metal for exterior then insulation then vertical 2x4's. 

 

Is this do-able?

Should be - have you tried to create a new WALL TYPE

Check the help on WALL TYPEs.

This is where you start with outer most wall layer and work you way inside until inner most layer such as Sheetrock.

Can also have AIR GAPS and you get to adjust thickness of every layer.

So maybe one way to make this wall is to start with outer layer:

 

EXTERIOR

1 - Vertical metal siding and thickness would be roughly - 1.25" thick to account for ridges

2- Air Gap space for pole barn columns and horizontal members - I dunno 6" (check with pole barn design)

3- Air Gap space between stud wall and steel - 1"

 

4 - Foam board for thermal break - 1/2"

5 - House wrap -0

 

MAIN LAYER

6 - Stud wall with insulation - 3.5" or 5.5" -

 

INTERIOR

7- Sheetrock - 1/2" 

 

Not hard you just have to find the screen.

one way is draw a wall then click on it to open edit dialogue.

Then go to WALL TYPE TAB and click EDIT or NEW
