Hi there,
I was hoping my first post would be an introduction and a pictorial of my shop being built (almost done! ), but an oppurtunity has presented itself where I may be able to clarify something.

In response to Jeremy's post, I am currently building a 16'x36' pole barn w/10' ceilings. The poles are PT 6x6's, 8' apart and set 4' into the ground. I have 2x6's running horizontally (on the flat) every 2' between the poles and toenailed in, thereby creating a "horizontal stud". Once the electrical is done, I will be using 24" batt insulation between the 2x6's and then vapour barrier and drywall. I don't understand the problems with insulating a pole building as I don't see any difference.

Anyhoo, thats my introduction, and I'm looking forward to gaining some valuable knowledge from everyone here in the future.

Evan
