Here is another picture. The construction of the prefabricated garden shed is progressing well.

This is my design

Hello,

I have one more question regarding the wall construction of my above garden shed. On the outside, I am mostly finished, except for the parapet and the door.

Now, one question before I start installing the OSB on the inside.

My plan from outside to inside is:

Siberian larch
Breather membrane
Counter battens 30 x 50 mm (1.2 x 2 inches)
12 mm (0.5 inch) OSB
80 mm (3.1 inches) KVH structural timber
80 mm (3.1 inches) partition board
12 mm (0.5 inch) OSB

Do I need to install a vapor barrier after the partition boards, or does my OSB regulate the moisture?

Thank you

Is it purely a garden tool shed? We built it as an extension to the carport, with wood cladding on the outside and OSB panels on the inside, nothing more.

Yes, that is the plan. I also want to install an infrared heater for when I'm tinkering or having a beer with friends, but nothing more than that.

Then I would leave out these expensive materials. The membrane, insulation, and so on really cost a lot of money, and if you use them, everything would need to be equally insulated, otherwise the heat will just escape somewhere else. I was just in my garden shed and wouldn’t see any advantage in such a complex setup for the type of use you mentioned.

Well, my dad said that in summer the structure provides some protection against heat. I would put 160mm (6.3 inches) insulation between the rafters. OSB for the interior is already in the house. I still need to get the insulation.
