External Insulation and External Metal Cladding on an Existing House.

Hi All,

I wonder if anyone on here could advise or came across the following:

-An overseas 2 story house built using structural concrete frame and external non-loadbearing masonry cavity walls

-I would like to add an external insulation (200mm thick EPS) and corrugated galvanized metal cladding.

 

The question is, how one would fix the metal sheets to the existing building?

I was thinking about adding timber frame (to reduce cost) rather than steel frame!

Any advice?

Thank you
