Question - been told by a number of people to use batons between the OSB and the cladding to allow for airflow, otherwise condensation on the inside of the cladding would cause it to rot. Is it that the material you're using for the cladding allows the direct attachment, while wooden shiplap would not, or is it the climate you live in - drier, so less concern about this issue?
@AmplifyDIY
@AmplifyDIY 4 жыл бұрын
The siding material I used is very common in my area, and does not require any batons. It also happens to be a relatively low humidity area here as well, with very little condensation. In your case, I'd call a local lumber or building supply store and ask what they recommend for your climate. Great question, and good luck!

No, you caulk the siding to the trim which forms a waterproof seal. The trim cannot be installed over the top of the siding, as that would leave huge gaps. Installing the trim makes it easier to measure for the exact size you need for the siding. Thanks for watching!

Is it necessary to install sheathing un horizontal siding on a shed?
@AmplifyDIY
@AmplifyDIY 4 жыл бұрын
Sheathing acts as reinforcement for shear stresses (think, strong wind blowing) on your wall which help keep it much more stable / sturdy. If you didn't add any OSB or other sheathing under the siding, the whole structure would be much less strong. Siding is mostly for water proofing / exterior look. Generally when you install lap siding as I did in this video, you need sheathing underneath.

As the board expands, it can move the wall joists with it. They allow a certain amount of flex, and the combined force of all the siding can easily expand that much across a 16' span, given a strong enough swing in temperature and humidity. Typically, they won't expand anywhere near that much, but in theory the could.

@@AmplifyDIY Lintels (header) distribute the load over a window to the jack studs. Windows aren't designed to support any load. That could be to code where you live but it's definitely not here in Canada.

Paint brush with water to smooth the caulk..use a light touch and you don’t remove caulk

For water soluble caulks I’d agree with you, but this stuff is definitely not supposed to get wet until it has cured.

Dude, there's overspray on the visible side of the ends. WTF?

Overspray didn't matter. These boards come primed, and I was only adding more primer to the cut ends. After install I painted the entire shed.

You dont need to paint the edges if caulk is going on the ends
@AmplifyDIY
@AmplifyDIY 5 жыл бұрын
The instructions say to seal any exposed edges - caulking is probably sufficient, but in case the caulking ever shrinks, cracks, or otherwise loses a watertight seal with the ends, I'd much rather have the ends sealed with primer as well.

Yeah, no idea what you mean about an air gap. Do you mean to put a gap between the siding and the wall sheathing? Is that common in other parts of the world? It's not how this siding is supposed to be installed....

Get a6 ft level
@AmplifyDIY
@AmplifyDIY 5 жыл бұрын
Certainly a longer level would have been more precise, but I don't already have one, could not easily borrow one, and could not justify spending the money on a new one just for this one project. The level I used worked fine, and I'm happy with the results. If I was building large stuff more often, I'd definitely invest in a 6' level. But for just one shed? Nah, the one I have is fine. Thanks for watching!

The "Triangle" as you refer to it is a speed square, which is 3/16" thick, not 1/4". Also, had you increased the reveal on each course of siding a minute amount you would not have to worry about the trim at top.

Yes, it is a speed square, of course... talking on camera is harder than it looks. I frequently call things by the wrong name just because I'm a bit flustered.... I usually catch them and re-state, but missed that one. Thanks for watching!
