I do know it increases the structural integrity of the building tremendously and helps a lot with sound dampening. I am putting metal up inside as well. They make an FJ channel that accepts the ceiling panel and wall liner. As far as cost I didn’t price batts, but this is expensive. The walls were $4,000. To line the gable and roof to complete it seal the building is an extra $5,000. I’m undecided on the ceiling/roof insulation yet. The budget appears to be breaking.

My building contractor is lining the ceiling and blowing r-38 on top. The sidewalls are mine to deal with. I am going 16.5' sidewalls with scissor trusses to get around 18' in the center.
How will you wire you're sidewalls? Thanks for all the pics.
