Hi everybody. This is a great looking place. I look forward to my visit here.

Could somebody kindly point me in the right direction for discussing Structural Insulated Panels here?

Welcome to the forum - you can post on SIPs in either the wall or roof framing forums - depending on your case.

Where do you put the wiring and lateral bracing in SIP construction? One of my current projects on Cape Cod is remodeling a Yankee Barn that has exterior insulated panels and adding walls inside for wiring and wind bracing.

The Structural Insulated Panels that I used had the wire chases precut inside the panels. It was extremely nice having this feature.

You may need to contact a Structural Insulated Panel Manufacturer for information on what they suggest for lateral bracing. They might need to see your plans to get more specific with your project.
