what about the need for a vapour barrier on headers and load points? As there is a continuous piece of wood from outside to inside with no insulation. On a conventional stick frame wall that would at least have a vapour barrier
Thank you for your inquiry. The installer applies a continuous bead of caulking where the header comes into contact of the OSB of the adjacent SIP wall panels; and where the beam comes into contact of the top plate. This is bead of caulking is applied on the warm (heated) side of the wall. Please see www.thermapan.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/w-9-notes.pdf for clarification.
