How to Work with Wall Panels
If you use curtainwall panels - these have
drywall already in place as the inside face of the panel. With curtainwall
panels you wont need to worry about installing drywall. Many
people do use curtainwall panels on their timberframes. The advantages
- you already have your drywall in place. Its less expensive
in materials and labor to use curtainwall panels. The disadvantages
- your seams (even with splines) are more susceptible to cracking
with time. Also, you might not be able to hang heavy pictures or
other objects on your walls, since drywall will not support as much
weight as OSB.
