Have you asked the SIP supplier?

Hey every group has to have one. And I have been elected to be the one. I should make that my tagline.
All the SIPS people tell me they need a finished plan that they can convert. Am I missing something?
All engineers are going to need a plan.
What stage of construction are you at?SamT

I am trying to finalize plans that I have been working on for quite sometime. A very simple design. Nothing fancy. Have drawn floor, elevation, site and preliminary mechanical and plumbing. And know what materials I want to use. I just need help with the structural aspect of loads, etc. I believe I know where the supports and beams should go but don't know to size them.
Guess I am trying to understand every aspect of this project of mine. I am not professional but I am capable. This is an owner builder project.
Can you bookmark this post and come back after the new years and give me a hollar?SamT
