So you never responded to weather you're a DIY'er or a painting contractor? Pretty sure I know the answer to that. If you called me for an estimate I would give you an estimate, a price to do the job you want done. I will not give a detailed list(instructions) of the process of what how I'm going to give you what you want. I will give some small details of what is involved to justify my price but would not tell you how to do it.

Why don't you go to www.diychatroom.com and ask your question there. They have some knowledgable people that will be more than happy to answer your questions. Good Luck. My advice=tear the whole roof off and install trusses and new roof and then drywall.

If it was me id just span some fur strips from side to side to hang the drywall on to eliminate some of the weight. Just scab em together in the middle somewhere, if they span a long ways you might wanna get some tie wire and hang em off the rafters.

This is good "solid" advise. Many of the home builders here do it this way all day long. Light weight and saves more trees

That statement will be a great way to make friends here Mr. painter. When you finally make it to the correct forum as was kindly suggested please by all means feel free to insult the diy community also. When your 1940's garage is sagging and your drywall is falling down around your ears feel free to hire a high priced contractor to come and laugh in your face.

A number cruncher who cant build anything. Smarter then us lowly carpenters too huh?

A first year mechanical engineer student would know how to calculate how much weight that door header would hold.

I didn't realize that when one types a bad word , it automaticaly comes out as ****. My apologies to the word police. Or whoever. Mother ****er

So you come to www.contractortalk.com for advice and then insult contractors? You are pretty stupid for being an engineer. Your mom didn't teach you any people skills?
