[QUOTE="Cattle Rack Rancher, post: 316147, member: 245"] The poly goes to the interior of the interior wall girts, right? I think that you are assuming that the outside metal would be airtight and its really nowhere close. At the top on the outside, there's always a gap between where the top of the steel is and the eave flashing. Also the metal is galvanized so as long as you don't heat it up with a quickie saw (which takes the temper out of the steel), it won't rust. Most of our crews use a nibbler or a shear to cut their steel so that doesn't happen. Predrill all your holes with a good drill bit. Make sure sure you dust off any filings as they will sometimes cause rust marks....I've been in construction for over 20 years. I've built and renovated a few buildings in my time. For the last 6 years, I've been a Project Manager doing farm and commercial Post Frame buildings almost exclusively, so I guess you either have to trust that I know of what I speak or figure it out for yourself. Good Luck. [/QUOTE]
