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.
In: Engineering
Construction materials are typically rated to a certain amount of exposure to the elements to allow for construction time. Thats why construction scheduling is so important, so that sensitive things arent ruined before the building is up. Ive seen thousands of dollars worth of material discarded because it sat too long in a building that wasnt sealed
Wood framing can go quite awhile exposed before there starts to be a real concern. But it depends on climate and whatnot.
