  1. This is part of our ISOTEX extension I have been working on, no real glitches. First time doing a build of this scale, its took me a year from groundworks til now.

    Our idea...

    Huge afternoon, 4.9m Lintel beam *tick*
  4. I will be looking at getting joists into place soon going for c24 225x47mm, we had considered a cold roof. I recently came across Steico products, which got me thinking, then I came across M Wye site, with further thoughts on how to then effectively fill the 225mm depth in the joist. I like the Sarking board idea which you then vent over this and do your choice of ply or osb. I have noted how wools can sag away from joists but if they were placed in and made captive, I am thinking this could negate any unwanted voids around joists. Now I'm thinking as this is a new build and want the joists wrapped as effectively as possible and done as cost effective, has anyone completed their roof from the outside? I am thinking of a hardboard or a suitable breathable board "ceiling" which would then be battened to do the membrane and service layer. We could then stuff a cheaper or most budget friendly wool as a first layer right into the bottom of the ceiling using steico in successive layers then add the dry board over the joists to then allow the rest of the construction to progress. Thoughts?

    bit hard to get a picture of the steel that made up the lintel, but it is in there!
