Hello!
I'm working on the frame for my garage.
The frame consists of 45*145, which will be covered with so-called Windy, air gap battens, and finally horizontal cladding.
The frame will be insulated with insulation boards.
I am now wondering if it is unwise to fill an entire section from sill to top plate with insulation without having noggins at cc 600mm in the sections.
I could imagine that the insulation might "bulge" out the Windy fabric. This is probably remedied with noggins.
In the picture at the following link below, you can see what I mean.

On the left, I have noggins, but on the right, I don't.
What do you think?
Kind regards,
Fredrik

It sounds like a sensible idea with horizontal paneling, alternatively, you can set standing sparse/batten with half the cc-measurement for the frame to the air gap on the outside, so you avoid all the measuring and cutting.
Hello!
Thanks for the reply!
Yes, that was not a bad idea.
If I understand you correctly, these extra air gap battens only function as spacers to keep any bulging Windy apart from the panel. But they are not something you nail into. They are just attached to the top plate and the sill?
Should work excellently.
Best regards,
Fredrik
