Gyproc detail at window reveal - ICF

Featured Replies

Our wooden reveals where pre fixed to the windows but I didn't mention that as I thought it might confuse the issue. 

The windows are fixed into timber frame thru reveals over there too. They're a "structural" part of the window I suppose

I'm going for a finish similar to the image Dudda posted. This is a renovation to a modern house, not a build. Obviously will be using higher quality ply.

Another plasterboard/window detail question...

 

Where the plasterboard meets the window opening, I was going to have a feather edge there. Will this leave too much filling to be done at the corner? The alternative is to cut the window opening out of the board and then put new battens in for a board join slightly further over.

Is it OK to use EPS rather than PIR to insulate the reveal?

Good question. My thought is that it's probably better not to because of the flammability of EPS but maybe actual EPS products are sufficiently treated that this isn't really a problem. I'd be interested in a definitive answer.
