We fitted a metal stud wall around a new gas fire in the lounge. Excellent for conducting heat, but when we turned off the fire there was always a boom type sound when the wall contracted as it cooled. Wouldn't fit another.

I move fluidly b/n wood and metal. Doing a bulkhead? Steel is great: fast, straight, u can use a crimper to adjust for level on the fly, no splitting. Basement? Steel avoids providing organic material for mould to attack. Too flimsy? Change the gauge, add stiffening channel, augment with spray foam, line with timber. 15m high commercial wall? Yes, there is a stud that long. Working after hours? Snips + crimper is totally quiet.

Great job Roger! Tons of useful tips and a perfect guide for someone that's still using timber exclusively because steel seems too confusing! One thing I'd add is to speed up steel framing you should look into getting some crimpers as they do speed up some jobs are are inexpensive. Self-tapping screws are also brilliant for steel framing!

@herbertherb9904
@herbertherb9904 Жыл бұрын
It probably doesn't deflect a whole lot, but those metal studs have extremely low compressive strength. Only takes a little bit of deformation due to added weight from the ceiling for the plaster boards to start cracking. With wood studs, there's enough compressive strength for them to withstand a little bit of extra weight without deforming

Roger, thanks for this! perfect timing for me. I will be using metal stud to frame the internals of a newly built basement. I have tanked the basement internals walls with KA Tanking Slurry. Reason for not going for a typical timber stud wall is due to not wanting to compromise the tanked wall. Using this metal stud method will allow me not to add fixings directly to the walls. I intend use 53mm tracks and 50mm sections which will be filled with wool type insulation (at 50mm) up against the the internal basement walls. I then intend to use 37.5mm insulated plasterboard on top (25mm insulation and 12.5mm plasterboard), What are your thoughts?

The studs are on the floor so the skirting is not a problem. The bit that has the give is the top channel on the ceiling. That is why it is not fixed to the studs. Have another look at it and you will see where the channel is free to move up and down on the studs which don't move.

I am planning to install a double stud construction against a common wall with a noisy neighbor. In order to achieve a decent STC rating, I read about a double glued plasterboard behind the back stud, another double glued board in front of the front stud and both studs filled up with damping material and a small air spacing between both damping sheets (a completely symmetric setup). I know that this would be ideal for room separation walls where the access on both sides is unhindered; but is there a trick to achieve the same, but just applied on top of an existing wall ?
@42RHD
@42RHD Жыл бұрын
I have had to do this. We built the stud construction in panels and fixed the double layer of plasterboard on the back before fixing in place. It was fixed into place with an air gap from the existing party wall with neoprene rubber all round any place the stud touched any structural component of the house. It was sealed with silicone from our side before the stud walls were filled with sound proofing rockwool. We then fixed a double layer of overlapping plasterboard from our side with extra silicone then rendered with plastic multifinish and made good. Made a huge difference.

My son's house has metal stud walls upstairs. Terrible: noisy, hellish to run cables/pipes through, and no cheaper than 3"x2". My old firm tried using it. The joiners hated it and the customers hated it.

Why do you think it's hard to run services through all studs have holes in them for that purpose. Not all studs are equal cheaper studs are made of thinner metal, even british gypsum studs come in different grades. I've been drylining since I left school never heard anybody claim it is noiser the timber studs. The plus point is it is much quicker the studs don't warp and twist like timber.

@@michaeloates5804 And I've been a joiner since I left school - and I could have had that partition made up (on the floor), stood up, plumbed up and fixed in less than half the time, without even setting up the mitre saw. There were no holes in the noggins in my son's house, when the plumber was trying to run new plastic pipes to his bath. It was a nightmare.

@@michaeloates5804 It is certainly easier to construct a decoupled low sound transmission wall from. Had to use it on an old mill conversion that was for hostel use and the architect had specced it. We weren't that entusistic about it to begin with but very soon after starting to use it we were very impressed with the system.

All that deflection head baloney is just an excuse for a system that can barely support it's own weight. Timber studs would actually support and stiffen the floor above.

Good for builders who have one set of priorities- not good for home owners who have another set of priorities. Timber studs will actually support the ceiling, unlike this.... product.

Rule number one of joining between two slabs is to never have a rigid connection on both slabs, as it will break the load bearing material/stud, when one moves and the other doesn't, or if they move in different directions simultaneously. Also, if that material is metal, you need to allow for thermal expansion (on exterior uses). Both rarely happen in housing projects, but it is a proper way to do it. Also, this product is German and is up to EU Code, it's used across the Europe without any issues, for many decades. Those twigs usually seen in US acting as studs, would never support a ceiling in Europe, as here it is usually (about 90% of the time) done as slabs of reinforced concrete. I do agree, however, than a typical American house needs all the help it can get, and that's why thier choice is timber studs, to also support the ceiling.
