How can a half-built house be left in the weather with no issues? I’m talking about a wood frame with plastic in the rain type of thing.

Any wood in direct contact with cement must be treated since concrete always has some level of humidity. All the other wood sheds water rather well. Also all the 2×4 or 2×6 and such are in a place that is exposed to air and can dry quickly. The only thing that is a problem is OSB plywood. On a vertical wall it still sheds pretty well but when we do a roof the goal is to cover it the same day because it can’t shed as well and it will definitely swell and make it impossible to fit the spacer clips on. Also the last thing you want compromised in any way is the roof that will see plenty of abuse over the years.
