I have a couple of simple sounding questions about framing my garage.
I am using 2x6 for framing. How many nails go in the end?
I have 2 LDL for the header for the garage door. I know they get sandwiched together. How do I know how many nails go into them to keep them together? I will be using construction adhesive between them.
I am using aspenite/particle board for the sheeting. Should I put them on while the wall is down?
I am using trusses. I want a door at the front of the attic to put a canoe in. I had the trusses built to give me enough space. However, the opening is too large. Can I just take similar sized boards (2x4, 2x6, etc) to make the opening? Can I simply screw or nail them to the trusses?
Thank you.
