OSB interior


Here is what it all looks like with the OSB sheathing in place on the interior. Sorry about the mess but it is a work in progress. Next step is to cap and cover the blue foam at the bottom of all exterior walls.
The framed walls are 8 feet tall but since I wanted and interior height of 9 feet I allowed the foundation walls to stand a foot proud of the floor. This technique allows for simpler construction as all panels are precut to 8 foot. However it does mean that i have to spend a little extra time covering the foundation walls. I had kept 2 inch foam panels against the foundation walls which are now solidly held by the floor. So I am using foam adhesive to keep the OSB covers in place over the foam.
