I am looking for a SIPs building guide for a tiny house and a place to find SIPs. I noticed that Little House on a Trailer is coming out with a guide. Any help on how I should plan to join the SIPs together, to the roof and floor would be appreciated. Also, SIPs suppliers would be great! Thanks.

Little House on a trailer uses http://www.superhoneycomb.com/. I would look for a suppler in your area. Go the the local lumber yard(not big box) and ask around hopefully someone there will know of someone near you. Almost all SIP manufactures web sites will have construction details that you can download. These will show you the best way to build with there product. There shouldn't be any difference in the construction details for a tiny house. Typical you can use a 2x4 between panels, but there are other methods. The first details page that popped up for me on a Google search was this site, http://www.insulspan.com/professionals/sipsdetail_index.html. I know nothing of that particular company but it will give you an idea about one of the was to build with SIP's.

Here's a link to the SIP page on Shed & Shelter. There should be enough info there to keep you busy for awhile.
