Lining a shed

[bully]

I have a 6x6 Titan shed that I would like to make into a pool room. Has anyone lined their shed and what is the best and easiest way of doing it. Just going to insulate the roof and tile the floor.
There is a roller door on either side of the shed and an access door. Also 1 window. It is a cheaper Titan shed so it has a internal frame.
Just want to know I what is the best wall sheeting.
I am a little handy but willing to give anything a try. Probably don't want to do gyproc as I would like it to be able to take a bit of weather.

A mate used this garage liner stuff and mini orb corrugated tin in one of  his sheds  http://www.jameshardie.com.au/products/internal-lining/pineridge-lining/  didnt turn out to bad .

The cheapest and easiest way is battens and plaster.

If you want weather and physical durability. 9mm  Villaboard would be the way to go, but is about 3 times the cost of plasterboard.

If you don't know how to stop up, maybe look at 4.5mm or 6mm cement sheet and used the plastic join strips.

I'd do a 900mm 9mm Villaboard for the bottom horizontal sheet and then 10mm plasterboard above. Stop the whole lot up and put a timber strip like a chair rail to cover the plaster to villa join.

Years ago, as teenagers, we converted an old truck garage on our property into a teenagers retreat.  We just used some left over plasterboard from a mate, and wallpapered over it.  It was a wood frame which made it easier though.

Have a look at bracing chip board or 3 ply  for the walls . Pop out to have a look at a timber/steel frame house under construction . That will show you how the pros put up a frame that you can adapt to your internal frame . Do try to have your frame with in the frame of the shed or you will waste space . Check out the insulation bats prices , or look out for a house being demolished & grab that for the walls & roof . Cultivate a group of tall mates to help put this together . Have fun

If you don't want plasterboard then 6mm villaboard will be your next choice, it's what they line bathrooms with. Being in Brisbane extended damp weather won't be a major issue, so should stand the test of time. Don't let it span more then 600mm between studs, though 450mm max span would be better. You can screw it to the steel if you want, though without seeing your exact set up, probably easier to screw timber battens in place first up and attach the villa to that. You could also line it in ply sheeting also, my SIL got a heap of 16mm packing sheets to do their shed, really just depends what look you want to achieve .

Depends on the look you want to create, we've been involved in a few similar projects. depending on your frame you could sheet it in 9 mm or 12 mm mdf, run a small chamfer on the edges where the sheets but up to create a small v groove, then paint the sheets. My first factory was 200 m2 I sheeting the walls with 2400 x 1200 x 16 her whiteboard, screwed into the back of the wall top hats. This was pre finished and easy to keep clean, it was also really easy to fix power points etc to.

I used 25mm battens for the walls, 60mm tophats for the ceiling battens because they need rigidity to span a bit of distance.

I was just going to use 9mm ply so I can hang tools and Shit on the walls still..

Hang $h1t on the walls .    What have the walls done to upset you       Poor Walls  just standing there & having $h1t hung on them , by you . l suppose 9MM is thick skinned enough for you  .

Yeah, that's the flash end of the shed, the other end is for the tools and stuff.

Nothing like having somewhere to go when SWMBO has the grumps.
Looks really good.

yea mines just for toys and Shit like that....
just not sure how to attach the timber etc to the walls.

[Kangaron]

Have nearly finished mine, just put a shower and dunny in, now need some rain to top up the tanks.
This pic was last summer, inside all finished now, bat a paintjob.

Looks good Kangaron. Wish I had one of those gyprock sheet lifters when we did ours, I just used the mrs and a couple of those extendable props.

I used 16mm chipboard sheets. Got some seconds cheap (had foot prints on them).  Screwed them to the noggins with insulation behind them, and 10mm off the floor in case I had a liquid spill in the shed.

That would be kewl if I could get enough to do a 9mtr x 6 mtr with ~~4mtr high walls. (3mtr sliding doors)

[GQMacca]

4 metre high is a bit tough.    My 2400 sheets were about 2550, so did 2.5 high walls nicely.

they are fairly cheap to hire for a day when you do ceilings, well worth spending the money on i reckon.

And a lot easier to deal with than the mrs I imagine

If you don't mind a trip or two to Geelong I can probably help you out. We cut between 3 and 5 packs of whiteboard most weeks, each pack has a cover sheet top and bottom. They're 2400 x 1200 and often varying colour, thickness and quality. Some we use, a lot we don't, But I'm happy to stockpile enough similar ones if you want some. Boys picked out 8 sheets of 12 mm mdf covers out of the pile today all the same.

I don't even bother asking the Mrs for a hand doing stuff like that, i ring my brother instead, he only lives 5 minutes around the corner 

[Moggy]

I'd be checking with the shed manufacturer as the roof framing is not generally designed to carry any loads other than the roof sheeting.  I know this a a builder i do some work for, had to do this & the only mayerial he was able to use was 25mm top hat section & 4mm bracing ply.
Note this was in a C2 area
