Have built a shed with a strong frame and used shiplap cladding. The Cladding is securely nailed to the frame and has been treated with Fencelife type treatment. The cladding however appears to be shrinking and I am worried that the joins will seperate. Did i miss doing something or is this normal No sounds normal. Thats also why it helps if you only nail through bottom quater of each board, that should leave the top of each board freedom to grow and shrink as required without warping too much or slowly working the mails loose. -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
