I am working on my 60x72 polebarn still and would like to get others thoughts to economically block off a couple sections temporarily in the winter as needed to work on things. I have an open rafter design with spray foam closed cell insulation. I had them seal off two rafters to local two...

Also want to add from what I am finding the first spray foams didn't have antifire additives where most of the newer ones do now and have for years. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Well, great things can come from Facebook market place. Found 110 sheets for $7 each. He doing rental housing and gets homeowners discounts for them but doesn't store the extra and just smells them. This is of the fire rated osb. More in the future. So to be proper code does this technically...

Ok, that gets more expensive. I figure rough math and not doing the open ceilings with any covering it would be around $5k to do the 30x40 and 60x72. Might look into it though for a few heavy use areas since it is strong and can screw things to it and it wouldn't require studding up the wall -...

After putting a torch to the foam piece I am really not worried about burning down the place. A hot coal could melt through it but still not go up in flames. I couldn't get it to sustain burning when I took the torch away. I have no windows in the shop so I am not as concerned with uv...

New to it with applied to steel but I would only go closed cell for the vapor barrier and insulation per inch value. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Did that. Torched it and surprised it doesn't burn as much as I thought it would. But I see what the paint does as well. 1 gallon covers 70 square feet and is 100/gal and comes in 5 gal pails. I may do a few locations. Not as worried now and not covering with drywall. Funny seeing how the uv...

Closed cell is R7 per inch and is a vapor barrier. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Closed cell for a 30x40 with 15 foot ceiling at the wall edge with 2 inch on the walls and 3 on ceiling was close to 10k. Cash discount. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Interesting. Although that doesn't change the fact I have the spray foam already. I can tell you I can't afford to sheet rock the whole thing, only reason I have the tin is due to roof replacement from hail/insurance. I will take the "ugliness" to have a tight shop. Sent from my SM-G950U using...

I have just spray foam insulated my 30x40 shop ceiling and walls. I will also be doing the 60x72 new addition soon. I do weld, grind, torch cut and plasma cut along with chop saw cut. The person who sprayed said it can but threw the foam. He said they make a fire proofing paint that is only sold...

You can always go down. Dig it so the floor is down for everything or at least the lift area. Can have a drain with a sump pump at the very bottom. Otherwise build a flat roof building at the max heigh. They also make some low lift car lifts. Don't lift as high and are mobile even to unbolt from...
