Wall Purlins: What You Should Know
/ May 19, 2024/ Still Building Tips & News
The material prices are pretty expensive now. So before you’ve purchased your steel building make sure you go throw all the details. Depending on what is the purpose of the building, where it will be located, etc., you need to choose different types of insulation, frames, panels, and other components. It will save you time and money.
Let’s talk about Wall Purlins, for example. There are two different types of them: Outside Purlins and Flesh Purlins.
Outside Purlins
If you’re building regular storage, garage, shop, or some other facility and not planning to make a finished inside, then choose regular outside purlins. When you do outside purlins you need to step down from the main frame and build another wall to handle drywall.



Flesh Purlins
If you’re planning to build a barndominium, then your best option would be flesh purlins. In this case, you can keep your sq.ft and don’t lose the space while finishing inside your building and making a nice cozy home.
