| 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?


...................what type of siding is this?



I'm concerned about someone injuring
| themselves, and I haven't seen this in any other garage I've been in.


...................some siding nails only penetrate the studs.



|
| 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.


...................rigid insulation in between studs (over nails)



|
| Thanks,
| --Nate
