Thats awesome

Awesome. We can't wait either lol.

I'm doing the same thing now and was told you DON'T want to do that. Reason being is that the building will always move a little, and if you tie your walls in to it, you'll probably get cracks in your sheetrock at some point. I'm keeping my walls an inch or so off of the metal building walls

@@ralvis20 I'm probably too late for this comment, but my wife and I are about to do a project like this and I was planning on doing some steel cables or even heavy duty zip ties just for temporary stability. Eventually I'm going to drill into our foundation and drop a dozen Redhead concrete anchors.

Maybe they're building out loft/storage space on the top... Would that be a reason for the headers??

Doors and windows have steel framing, why the headers?

It doesn't look like he did it, but generally what I see is people put horizontal boards screwed down onto the sidewall girts. Then they screw the vertical framing studs into the horizontal plates

I don't think you're supposed to. Pretty much a free standing building inside a building.

@@richardmercado6700 I think it could be either really. I would probably attach it and make it monolithic.

I just find it interesting how someone can take the time to shoot a video - edit a video - post a video…and yet can’t take the time to answer questions. Just things that make you go…hmmmmm.

I finally got mine done and will answer my own question here as I ended up getting a framer to do the work instead of taking the task myself. Here’s what my framer did: Attached a 2x4 vertically and flat against the girts with Tek’s Wood to Metal screws. Then side nail the wall studs to the 2x4 that is attached to the girts. This is done every 6 feet or so. Even with my 20ft tall walls, attaching it this way made the walls extremely sturdy with no wobble.

But yet pressure treated ceiling joists??

My question as well

I'd use treated all the way including plywood

How big is your build you have

We’re you able to find this out?

@@ro79john I'm doing the same thing now and was told you DON'T want to do that. The metal building will always move a little and so you could end up with cracks in your dry wall later. I'm keeping my walls an inch or so off of the metal building walls. Anchoring to the floor is enough security it's not going to go anywhere. I'm using 6" concrete anchors though

@@ralvis20 I'm going Treated plywood top to bottom with a vapor barrier

I guess they attached to the floor through the cement

Sure do. Worked down there quite a bit

cool

I have to go down I10 from central Texas were I live to get there I always watch for your truck when im on I10

I work in commercial electrical sales

It's much bigger
