4.

Repeat steps 1-3 to apply siding to the other 10' wall frame.

Step 6B Assemble Sidewalls for 20' Building Length

1.

Select one of the 10' sidewalls assembled in Step 6A. Butt a 10' wall frame against the

wall with siding. DO NOT nail these frames together so they can be separated later.

2.

 Cut (3) three siding panels to a length of 87-1/4".

3.

Square the wall frame. Install a full width siding panel but do not nail along the long edge

that overlaps the 10' wall frame. You can nail this edge after the wall panels are installed.
This will enable you to separate the wall panels making them easier to handle.

Do Not Nail Along This Edge
