New metal bldg

Woods and water

I learned something new in a meeting yesterday. A lot of the spray foam is not tested and listed to be applied to metal. Might want to keep that in mind if dealing with building inspectors 🤷

My spray will be after the final….I know what I’m getting…. We already sprayed a buddy’s shop! Thanks for the info-

Will the spray foam hold moisture at all. I know most metals sweat. Maybe the foam will keep it from doing that at all but just wondering.

the metal sweats due to the different air temperatures causing the moisture to build up. The spray foam keeps the temperatures change and moisture off the inside of the metal.

Plenty of boats have had to have the floor ripped up to remove closed cell foam because it was full of water. I watched a video where a guy put 4x4 sheets of xps foam in his pole barn. Probably the route I would go for a shop

Be prepared to walk around and pick up about 2000 self drilling screws. Lol
The crew that did mine didn’t leave a lot, but a few friends picked up a small bucket full when theirs was done.

First thing the man pulled of the truck was a rolling magnet- but I will patrol it myself!!
