      I’m finishing the interior of a pole barn style edition that is on the back of my garage. It is steel wall, wood beam and concrete floor construction. I’m studing out the walls, insulating and drywalling. How do I apply a vapor barrier? Where does it go? Between the steel and studs/insulation or stud/insulation and drywall? Help ASAP

      Place the vapor barrier directly behind the drywall. (So the order is: Outdoors/MetalWallMaterial/Studs&Insulation/VaporBarrier/Drywall/Indoors.)

      You can hold it up with tape (instead of staples.)
