Re: adding insulation to garage roof

said by liverdude See Profile :

Can I add a second layer of studs and insulation to the existing ceiling without doing any prep to it?
If so can I go with metal (aluminum)studs as they are lighter than wood?
Once completed can I just seal it with plastic sheeting until next year?
Short answer: NO.

Look into your local building code. Garages have strict requirements regarding fire propagation and air egress (carbon monoxide) that must be respected.
