Right we have covered the windows:-)
Question 2 concerns Posi-joists. Anyone have any reportable experience?
I have been told they creak.
For a similar load and span, I have been told they need a deeper section than timber. But a plumber/wireman dream for easy access.
Heating designer is opposed because you can't cut a slot through the top section to return the underfloor heating pipes.
The cottage will have 3 dormers leaving a small triangular space above the eaves. I have been wondering about the practicality of keeping this space warm (inside the insulation) and using it to return the heating pipes. Sucking of teeth from engineer concerned about multiple air lock sites.
Any thoughts?
