Part 6c of my basement finishing project.
All Part 6 videos of this series will shows some of the framing challenges faced in finishing a basement.
- 6a: challenges related to utilities.
- 6b: framing a soffit to cover HVAC or other overhead structures
- 6c: framing a half wall.
- 6d: enclosing a support post
- 6e: framing around steel support beam
- 6f: framing around a stairway
Prior to starting my project, I had a hard time finding useful information about how to design a basement with the best protection against water and the mold, mildew, mustiness, and rot that eventually come with it. This design is the result of quite a bit of research and discussion with building professionals. I hope this might be helpful to those of you embarking on your own basement finishing or remodeling project.
