Frame With Steel and Save Money! | Steel vs Wood

[@NicoleMangan-z9o]

Wait... You have to have a water barrier between the cement and the rigid foam?

[@NicoleMangan-z9o]

2001 home in mid Michigan here. Can i put the steel stud plates on top of the dricore subfloor or do i have to put it on a pressure treated board on the concrete? Confused on the "homewrap" paper. Do i have to use that between the rigid foam board i glue to the cement wall and the metal framing? Also with the price of wood back sort of normal, is it worth it to invest more money for less time and labor? Im tight on both but also a mom of 3 under 4 so time is important.

[@Nas_ty2026]

Question: how do you fasten the back of the stud when it’s up against an exterior wall? Thanks

Can i put UD profile down and up and turn the CD profile on back,because of space? And pleas can you do it in Centimeters 😪,how to calculate?

[@rajmalik3287]

My basement finishing contractor is suggesting attaching the Tyvek behind the studs and then resting the insulation back against it.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

sure. cheers!

[@denisewall4406]

Hi Jeff, Two things: First, amazing video! I am a 65 year old woman who has been intimidated by steel framing, and it is getting harder and harder for me to carry 2 x 4s around. Thanks to you, I am prepared to try steel framing for the first time. Second, you mention some source for steel framing supplies, but I do not know what you are talking about. Home Depot does not carry 16' lengths, which is what I need for my project, but I only need a small amount. Can you send me in the right direction? Thank you!

[@camuslp283]

25:29 let's lift it up a cu- a half an inch lmao

[@courtneyhunter3400]

How do you normally run the studs only one way or both ways

[@TheRoyaltyHalls]

How do you stick tyvek to concrete walls?

[@retf054ewte3]

just shut the sound and watch.

[@ubacow7109]

How do you attach the base to the floor?

[@tejanikerroumi9633]

The best man

[@chriscollins7586]

Do you have to do anything special when putting plumbing in steal studs?

[@rb6978]

What is the model of that chop saw?

[@markleewilson6611]

Home reno i have a water damaged drywall ceiling to remove it is fixed to metal studded ceiling waht is the best way to remove the drywall sheets with ruining the metal studs?

[@jahnd2]

What electrical receptacle must I use on metal studs? I see the one inthe video, but I can't find a similar one. Thank you.

[@whitigir5019]

We don’t screw on both sides of the stud to the track ?

[@Jacob-zv2ed]

If the stud is floating on top and bottom isn’t the load only carried by the two tiny screws?

[@greid666]

What about galvanized steel track?

[@elizabethstahl7452]

How would steel framing be utilized in more than one story framing?

[@justncase410]

use track for headers!

[@minarimon3106]

Where to buy the strongest studs from ??

[@essencessentials]

You might wanna use double sided tape for attaching the barrier...

[@sergeysytsevich734]

How can you make longer stud if there is no 13ft metal

[@janetiguarin5104]

Can I use insulating sheathing instead of the pink stuff?

[@jonm610]

Well now I’m thinking to use pressure treated wood all around. Floor & vertical studs

[@travisliu3032]

do I need to screw the pressure treated 2x4 to the concrete floor? I hate that part since I need special tool/gun.

[@jenderarevalo]

Cool buddy but you can use snips to avoid the ear plugs and plus its just light gauge sir but cool never seen those new chop saws till now..

[@alexmaclean1]

I could be wrong but I feel like this is quick to build but would make every job past framing be more of a pain in the ass. From drywalling to installing a tv wall mount, everything down the road us going to suck.

[@ravmatrahim7461]

If basement already have insulation can I frame over it or do need to remove it Thanks Ray

[@elizabethstahl7452]

Can steel be used to frame a "she shed"?

[@ng2977]

Are you aloud to us steel studs to make a dividing wall 🤔

[@markgibson9208]

what commercial store do buy them at? I also live in Ottawa

[@darthhulka-burger3187]

I'd love to go all metal...but 2x4x96wood is abt $5-$6. Equiv Mtl Studs are +/-$13. If you can direct me to the $5 Mtl Studs, I'd be happy to go that way..

[@lisaervin8277]

I'm planning to use steel studs for the basement walls. Does spray foam insulation work okay with the metal?

[@lakewoest50]

Is there any difference between Tyvek home wrap and Lowes brand?

[@Countrylifestlye]

are they screwed at the 16 inch center? looks like you screwed them outside to outside, an not center.

[@shilohii]

Excellent craftsmanship!

[@danstiverson]

Shouldn't your cuts be off the top of the stud so that your conduit holes line up?

[@LandQuestTotes]

After considering Steel Stud in the Basement finish and listening to the pro and cons the verdict is out. Thanks

[@offgrid-swinburne]

Hi, do you have this video on Facebook?? Can't find it

[@benh9961]

谢谢

[@cfralick100]

how about steel framing for a floor in a basement?

[@eldhaww]

Question 🙋 !! It’s possible to rebuild a bathroom using galvanized stubs?

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

definitely. that is what they use in condominium towers.

[@TheAajsanchez]

Small wafer screw size specs? I've been using small self drilling wafer head screws but want to try the sharp tip ones.

[@jacksondrumfoster]

Any advice for steel framing in a garage with a sloped slab? Level it? Plumb it? Follow the slope? I feel drywall is going to be a huge pain, but I don’t want to shim subfloor 2”+ on one side

[@jeffowens9692]

I just finished pouring a new floor in my basement. It was previously gravel for 30 years before I bought the house. I installed a waterproofing system prior to pouring the slab. I also installed a dimple board sleeve around where the slab meets the wall and footer for moisture to channel into my new french-drain system so there is a gap between the slab and the wall. In your opinion, can I get away with shooting steel track directly to the concrete for my wall framing or should I still use PT as a bottom plate?

[@Jeanell-o5q]

Steel fram for adoor

[@MaraxYTube]

We work with knauf products all the time in europe. Ud,uw,cw,cd profiles…

[@randomtux1234]

15:22 ear protection?! cutting steel sings but cutting aluminium YELLS

[@vbBegin1957]

You're correct.

[@labinotgjini1947]

How would you install the tyvek on concrete slab?

[@michaelkuzmin]

I saw some pros use stud crimpers to do massive industrial jobs very fast. What are your thoughts on using crimpers instead of screws? If yes, which one? I can't find a well reviewed tool for some reason. It seems like Stanley makes a couple of them but they are not sold in any physical store I checked online and Amazon is showing like 1.5 months delivery

[@Adeus1]

Unless you are notching the flange for bracing overlap or ears and tongues, it'll be safer to flip the stud/track for blade to web cuts.

[@davidpoe177]

Did you stop short on the acoustic sealant for the vapor barrier because it was only a demonstration? Do you actually go around the entirety of the edges in actual practice?

[@doughenderson4345]

Question: would making a box patio frame out of metal studs with coco lumber inserts be advised? Home in PI needs a cover .. regular wood is expensive and bad .. Coco lumber is very weak .. but if you combine the two with a layer of OSB and then roof panels .. would that work? Thanks and love your video's and advice.

[@patrickbrennan736]

Paint the bottom track black it will protect track.

[@2288pyro1]

WAIT what was that bandaid tape???

[@BaoNguyen-hw9eu]

Why do you need 200 8' stud instead of 100 for this room?

[@brianfogarty8838]

Appreciate the video....great information! Would you happen to know how to sister a metal stud together?

[@brianfogarty8838]

I'm dealing with that exact problem that you mentioned in the beginning of the video where I had water issues in my basement and the meadow studs rotted out it was an old basement from a previous owner and they must not have watched your video I think it was probably before KZbin thanks

[@brianfogarty8838]

Metal studs...

[@philipbreau1246]

It's now November 2021. Home Depot 2-inch x 4-inch x 8 ft. SPF Dimensional Lumber is $3.98. Was the price in 2020 actually that high? Was it for 8' or 10'?

[@iqaznili]

Yes the prices were that in 2020; the prices have adjusted I guess after the shift in demand and supply.

[@williamguzman6037]

Great information thank you. Question how would I frame my metal building 30x40 using metal instead of wood then insulation and drywall Any advice greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

structural framing is a different beast than non load bearing interior walls.

[@robinmurray9801]

About to build 1,200ft² garage..I wish I could use metal studs..

[@pratikmahendra3488]

All I can say is thank you for education and I have to say comments are amazing. So, thank you all for the contribution here.

[@antkn33]

What is the name of the acoustical sealant and the electrical boxes you are using? Thanks

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

[@fliporhold]
