Browse Forums Owner Builder Forum 1 Feb 27, 2024 11:46 am Hi all I doing a shed/house that has been engineered for this purpose and being built on a slab on the ground. The total size including the awnings is 18 x 30 it’s got 3m awnings on the long sides and a 5m awning at the front. Interior house is 12 x 25m. It is basically two flats half for me and half for my daughter. The questions I have are 1. We are using corrugated metal roofing for the interior ceiling with anticon blanket underneath the roof do I need additional insulation. 2. The interior wall frames are not structural so is there a need for structural timber and can I use 90 x 35 untreated Thanks in advance for any help Re: Shed conversion 2Feb 27, 2024 2:56 pm If you are building a house then you will have a building permit, full set of approved plans and specifications, read it, why are you asking questions here?
