Sparse panel garage roof building tips

I usually start at the wall and work my way up. It makes it easier with the drywall later on

In what way does starting at the bottom by the wall improve the plastic sheeting for the drywall?

I was thinking more about the glesen.
If you have the roll that is 270mm wide, there is a crease on it that is perfect to start with at the wall so it becomes straight and neat.

I understand. Thank you 🙏
One last question about the plastic sheeting.
If you look at my picture of the roof, I'm thinking a bit about how to apply plastic over the glued laminated timber beam in the ridge.

I'm considering making strips of plastic that go over the glued laminated timber between the rafters, which can then be taped together with the plastic from the roof on both sides of the beam.
What do you think?

A tip with the cc measurement is also to mark everything up and snap a chalk line BEFORE the plastic. Then the lines are where they should be, and you're good to go!

I understand now. Thank you 🙏
One last question about the sealing.
If you look at my picture of the roof, I'm wondering how to seal over the glulam beam at the ridge.

I'm considering making strips of plastic that go over the glulam between the rafters, which you then tape together with the plastic from the roof on both sides of the beam.

I'm attaching a picture of how I was thinking, drew in 2 sections where the plastic is over the glulam beam, to then be taped together with the roofing on each side of it.
Is this a good method to make it tight at the roof against the beam?
What do you think @Matti_75 ? 🙂

 

[Matti_75]

Yes, it works. The important thing is to make it completely tight. A tip for the future is to lay a plastic sheet on the glued wood before installing the roof trusses.

Okay, or are there better alternatives at the moment?
I don't normally do this, hence a lot of questions 😀
However, I'm very skillful practically when I know how to do it 🙂

 

[Matti_75]

Everything depends on how you envision it will look when you're done.
Should the glulam beam be visible or clad?
Depending on that, there are different methods. If it should be visible, your suggestion is good. Just make sure to tape tightly with the right tape for the purpose. If it's to be clad, you can wrap it downwards, so to speak.
