Apr 12 - Framing first wall

Here are some pics of the first wall that got framed.
After two foundation cracks were fixed on that specific wall it was ready to be framed.
Doing it right; concrete slab is covered with moisture barrier paper and tapped on joining parts. Construction epoxy was used to hold it in placed and stapled to the top beams.
1" inch gap was left between the 2x4's and the foundation to avoid moisture problems in the future.

Time spent: 8 hrs
Cost: Moisture barrier paper: $25 (still about half of a roll left)
Moisture barrier foil (will go on top of pink insulation): $35
2x4's about 30 of them used (bottom ones must be pressure treated):$75
