How does one build a stud wall around these obstacles? *I was planning
on using 1" polybead (as a thermal/moisture barrier) against the

first clean then paint walls with dry lock paint as a layer of
protection

10 mil plastic sheet over entire wall all outside walls overlapped at
double taped at seams.

If you have ANY moisture problems FIX THEM BEFORE PROCEEDING!!! I cant
stress this enough! A minor trickle of water in a open basement will
be a coming disaster in a nice room.

Have you considered a ingress egress window/s, they make the space a
