so i will ask my question here, on a ten ft high sidewall, considering our climate and todays new improved insulation, whats your prefernce on 2x4 stud wall vrs 2x6?
Larry.....the reason Steve didn't answer his phone.....He has caller id......
there`s tons of what-ifs.....the staggered stud arangement that john speaks of will prevent thermal bridging, what are you doing for exterior finish? how about foundation/floor and roof/ceiling? reason i`m askin` is that 2x6 walls insulated well sitting on top of a slab on grade with builder quality windows-n-doors and a marginally insulated attic space will be less efficient than going with 2x4 walls and upgrading the windows-n-doors and attic/slab insulation......
