[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 477383, member: 6969"] No like this [IMG]https://talk.electricianforum.co.uk/uploads/imageproxy/b14bea2c2387a32b57cabdd208357134.png.495f018e80dc9d05c64acc4e55263822.png[/IMG] The principle is you can fill the entire timber frame space with insulation. Then the battens create a service void before the plasterboard goes on. Usually the frame is filled with insulation, then over sheeted with more celotex type insulation to mitigate cold bridging of the frame. This picture (the first I could find anywhere) shows OSB instead. Imagine that being 25mm thick celotex. If you want to go th whole hog and make it an airtight building as well as a well insulated building, you would cover the whole lot with an airtight membrane with all joints taped. [/QUOTE]
