In the house I am planning on building, I am considering using coolroom panelling for the ground floor walls (steel stumps to support the top story). I'm close enough to a creek to consider the possability of flooding (although the 150mm we recieved in 24 hours/350mm in 72 hours a few weeks back didn't flood the property (but came close). To flood the projected slab level, the water would have to rise another 400-500mm. So I'm keeping it in mind, but not particularly worried about it.

So I'm wondering how they attatch to the slab, and if the method of attachment is good enough to withstand the pressure of water against the panels (however remote that might be).

Cheers.
