That is an intresting concept. " lining on the outside " .
Havent seen that done yet. :-)


Standard practice in the UK. Not on the "outside outside", but if you
have a garage space that's inside the outside walls of a house, you
need a couple of layers of drywall (aka plasterboard) fastened up on
the _fire_ side of the structure. And that's for our style of house
construction with real bricks too, not US ticky-tacky boxes!

If your houses are built with real bricks, why do you need fire protection?
Do you make your bricks out of wood chips?
