That's true ... the point being that "insulation" is still necessary
regardless of which you use... whether it is the factory built-in
insulation between the exterior and interior panels of SIPS; or added to
the exterior in the field, as with CLT construction.

Why would you need more insulation with a 6" SIP???

Are you looking for an argument, or are you just being uncommonly
thickheaded on this subject?

Uncommonly - perhaps. Around here, in Soutwestern Ontario, I've seen
6" SIP construction where that was basically all the insulation used,
and required. (except for the attic)

And who said otherwise ... insulation is necessary ... "whether it is
the factory built-in insulation between the exterior and interior panels

Perhaps we are separated by a common language?
