Nice TV TommyRS70!!

are you saying cover everything? Ridge vents and soffit?

Man, I'm going through the same thing here, although my building is up already. Just got a Foam quote for my 30x50x14 Moton building...$5000. With all the prep work for fibreglass(seams,joints etc...), I figure the foam isn't too much more. I have ridge vents and was told by foam man that they...

Steel panels... fyi...the building is not a barn but a reg building.

Need a little advice from you guys, I have a 30X50 post frame building up with concrete already poured in. Nothing inside is finished yet. The building was put up with soffit vents and a ridge vent. The big question here is if I decide to cover the soffit and ridge vent and encapsulate the...

thanks a lot for the confirmation. I needed that info to complete my lights. Again, thanks...

I need to know if this plan is doable, I have a 30x50 post beam building that I am currently installing lights in. I have 10 T8 fixtures which hold 4 bulbs each. The power source is in 1 corner of the building and the switch will be at the other, so I ran power to a jbox and brought 2 lights...

bygasper's pic looks exactly like my building. Minus the progress. bygasper, are you going to finish the ceiling? What material? Also, what are you putting on the upper walls?

I will be using plywwod on lower 8' and some kind of liner for upper walls and ceiling.

I'm going with open cell foam, 3".

Let me qualify this post by saying I know nothing about construction methods. I need some help with preping the inside of my post frame 30X50 for wall sheathing. I am stuck between running 2x4's between the post and using joist hangers or something like that to place them or just run them along...

Yes it is a Morton. If I was able to put it up myself I probably would have gone a diff direction. Their crew was a pleasure to deal with. If you have to pay someone to put your building up for you, Morton is hard to beat. Long time coming: http://garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=183079

Here's how my build went down; all contracted out: site prep = $3500 underground Power including Transformer (350') $3500 30x50x14 building erected( also 20x12 porch on front) = $32500 50x50 concrete slab = $10000 2 10x12 doors = $2500 inside not finished yet and no power inside building yet...
