Options- Sheeting and Translucent Panels
Single skin uninsulated panels may be OK for garaging, but double skin insulated is best. Composite panels on walls may be appropriate, particularly for office areas.
Translucent sheets in GRP are cheap. It is best not to have them in the roof but as alternate panels all round the tops of the walls/doors. If they are used in the roof they should have galvanised wire mesh inside.
It is good practise to use masonry for the bottom 2.1m (7′) of wall to make windows and walk through doors easier to install.
In hot countries you should choose white or very light coloured sheeting.
