As I posted elsewhere, I am thinking of at least installing it on my
inside ceiling. Typically I think each piece overlaps the other whne
going side by side by one rib. Is that correct? Length wise is it
supposed to overlap and does it look right if it does? I have a 30
feet long ceiling. Obviously 30 foot pieces would be ideal, but
transporting it and installing it might be a problem.

Also I am finding out my truses are not "exactly" 48 inches. Some 49,
etc.

What would be the best way to go here?

Siding installed on a ceiling with 48 inches between the joists wil
sag badly.

I was told by the metal supplier they do it all the time and it does
not sag. The truss manufacturer says drywall is too heavy.- Hide quoted text -

You have trusses that are not capable of supporting drywall and are
being used for a roof? Sounds like your overall plan was a bad one.
You built something that is not really suitable to what you want the
final product to be. Imho, siding installed as a ceiling is going to
look like crap. And is about the least insulating thing you could do
if you're still trying to heat and cool this garage. How about
suspension ceiling. You can hang it just a few inches below your
trusses and you'll get a little insulating factor out of the tiles.
