Sheet metal as interior ceiling in machine hall - how should one batten

[Lars89]

Hello! I'm in the process of building a machine hall and it's time to start buying some materials. But I'm wondering how to frame up in order to attach sheet metal to the ceiling? Is a sparse panel (28x70mm) with 30cm spacing screwed into the roof trusses sufficient to then attach the sheet metal to it? Or how should one do it?

It's perfectly sufficient. I think you can go with c/c 600.

Okay thanks! Should one use construction plastic or something similar in the ceiling? I plan to spray loose-fill insulation up there later.

If it should be warm constantly, use plastic; if not, you can use a wind barrier to hold up the insulation.
