Hello,

I recently had a 26' x 26' standalone garage built, and am concerned
by how the siding was hung.

There are about 70-80 nails throughout the garage, poking through the
walls about 1 inch. The nails are sometimes directly between the
studs. There are instances of these nails from about 1 foot above the
floor all the way up to the ceiling joists.

Is this a common practice? I'm concerned about someone injuring
themselves, and I haven't seen this in any other garage I've been in.

Is there a building code that I can reference? If this is a common/
o.k. thing to do, what's the best way to cover these nails? I'm not
too eager to put drywall up, however.

Thanks,
--Nate
