A double 2x6 with a 1/2" plywood sandwiched in between, 8 feet. The 2x8's built the same, 10 to 12 feet. Except they cannot be used for garage door headers. those headers must be 2x12's.
Does anyone have any advice on what type of material to use for garage walls? I imagine wood is easier for a novice to work with than vinyl but vinyl less maintenance. If it is wood, what type and dimensions? This is a detached garage that presently has old wood siding. Is it a good idea to have overlapping, angled out siding that runs lengthwise horizontilly or doesn't that matter much? Thanks.Read More
