I have a 6 meter long box section made of plywood to render on an exterior for my new shed. Is the process?

1 - Cover in an old dust sheet
2 - cover in DPC plastic
3 - Cover in fiber glass scrim mesh
4 - Render with normal render (I'll be adding a water proofing additive too)

Will this hold together do you think?

I worked on an extension years ago which was done in timber stud and ply.

From memory EML was fixed directly onto the ply and then the render applied.

Yea just nail some eml over the box section, a wide roll from travis perkins/local builders merchant should do it.

And use stainless screws as these can cause problems in the future if the screw heads rust off and allow the EML to pop the render. This happened on a friends house.
