guidelines for proper wine cellar construction
1.If the room is on a concrete slab:
    a. The floor must be as level as possible.
    b. The concrete floor must be treated with waterproof sealer.
2.Walls need to be constructed of 2x4 or 2x6 studs. All corners must be squared using the 3-4-5 method to square walls. (See figure 1 below)

(Figure 1)
3.Walls will need 2x6 nailers between studs, below top plate and above sill plate to anchor racking. (This step not needed if using plywood sheeting. See # 13)
