Actually it's in a single family residence. It's a little over 8000sq. ft.
Worked with the GCs crew on the framing and siding also.

Worn out,long before this job though. Gotta embrace the pain, and several Ibuprofens.

Wow, that will be cool. We want a full blown progress report or you'll have to pay a fine to the beverage fund.

All steel? How are you going to make a nail stick and keep all the poplar on the walls /ceiling ?

loneframer

Every wall in the house gets 5/8 advantech glued and screwed behind the drywall. For the first time in my life I'll be trying to MISS the studs!

TBFGhost

I was going to post blocking....but...I guess that works too

NO HOLLOW WALL ANCHORS IN THIS ONE!

Partially sound because the ho doesn't want the studs to "ring".
Secondly he never wants to be stuck hanging "Picaso's" with less than adequate backing.

That'll keep ya busy for a couple of days. GC's crew gonna help? Or is this a solo flight?
ps. Is that one piece of crown or a cove attached? I like the look-- simple yet catchy.

Yeah, cove is attached, it only goes on top of the beams in the open ceiling. The restof the building gets crown tucked to the rock. The poplar crown will actually have a little more detail. This mock-up was to get a feel of scale.Yup, been working with two of there guys on this whole project. They are top shelf guys, and fun to work with.
