If you are building a garage how can you fix it without starting over if you are to the point that the trusses should go up but the frame is out of square?
First, if you have not installed the wall sheating you should be able to force your framing back to square with the use of tempory bracing.Bracing should be used to keep framing square and plumb.It should be install on the interior as to allow the wall sheathing to be installed with bracing in place.I suggest plywood sheathing at least on all corners. This helps keep the framing square and plumb. Do not remove any bracing until all wall sheathing,trusses and roof sheathing have been installed.This is very important as the structure could collapse with out it.Also the trusses will need to be cross braced as they go up.

Can Tyvek house wrap be installed over backer board that is attached directly to the sheathing or should it be installed directly over the sheathing and the backer board over it?
If you are talking about a fiber cement backer board, the manufacturer of the board should provide the answer you are after. I am currently using Hardiplank to reside my house, and the manufacturer recommends attacheing the TyVek house wrap to the wood sheathing per TyVeks recommended process. Hope this helps.
Do you need to use plywood with DuroFoam sheathing on exterior walls in new construction?
After framing a house you will have to either put plywood or particle board on the exterior walls of the new construction. Then you must put a sheathing on top of that. There are many different types of sheathing availabe and you should choose one that fits your needs. There are no codes that say you have to use one particular type of sheathing, unless of course the home owner requires Duro Foam.
