Hey out there:
I'm putting 3/4" ply on the interior walls of my post beam shop building. Floor to ceiling is ~10'6", so mostly full 4x8' sheets, with some cutting and fitting to fill in the gaps and smaller sizes, above windows, etc.
Would you fasten the panels to the 2x6" horizontal girts with nails or screws? The construction is so-called "commercial style" girts so I've got the full side of the 2x6" for attachment. I don't think I need any more than 1.5 to 2" fastener, but 3" wouldn't be a problem. Which type/size of nail/screw? Spacing on panels?
I've got a bunch of nifty screws, but keep thinking that a 15 or 16 ga finish nailer would be faster...thoughts?
I guess I'm taking a poll - don't post much, so thx for your $.02.
