    I've been using Trustud for quite a few years and it is so good for studwork BUT, it is expensive compared to sawn and treated, getting on for twice the price, so sometimes hard to justify.
    On a point of detail, I would call that bolted on plate a ledger, to me a pole plate is a wall plate which is fixed on top of the ceiling joists ready to take the rafters.
    Something else Robin, yesterday I picked up a few 3m lengths of 8x2 sawn and treated for a dormer header and I noticed that some of the lengths were finger jointed like the trustud, I've never seen that before.

    You should have doubled the head timber that supports the upper level floor. Or, at the very least, lined the floor beams up with the studs transfering load down to the floor.
    On a side note, i need to start using this stud. The last pack i used only had 50% usable straight stud.

    • @ukconstruction
      @ukconstruction  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Stephen, the strength in the wall comes from the OSB sheathing that is fixed to the stud wall, a double header is overkill, I have been working with a timber frame engineer that has some amazing strength calculations with OSB clad walls and for the job this wall is doing it could have been up to 800 centres and 12mm OSB and that would have still eaten the loads, we tend to over build here and many structural engineers work on a safety factor of about 200%!! that covers variations in the skill of the craftsperson!!

    Here in Eastern Europe the OSB is an odd size 2500 x 1250, a pain if using on 400 / 600 stud work.

      Just place your studs accordingly…Measure twice/thrice cut once..😜

      ​@@justkiddin1980whilst you were being slightly facetious, it's an interesting point. You could place them at 625 centres, but then that might fall foul of some regulation or other. 312.5 centres would seem ridiculous too (and expensive) as well as difficult to measure accurately. 500 centres would work nicely, laying the sheet on its side, but then you'd have very high ceilings if you weren't cutting. Interesting.

      @@ricos1497 The 'easy' way to get around the regulations is to have a structural engineer do the calculations to determine what load can be supported by the metric sheets of OSB and studs on 625mm centres. It won't be much lower than the same thickness OSB and 24" centres (610mm). You would only need to do this once.

      @@tlangdon12 absolutely, just a bit of extra work to go through. Fine if you're doing a large construction I suppose, but a little annoying just to get round a sheet good size.

    Always measure once and cut twice.

      Great German technology and yep they all worked really well, it is a really strong range of tools!!

    Excellent, something done in metric so that I can understand.
