Also good to note: When there is metal bracing in a wall, make sure your studs all bow one way, and you brace the side which isn't bowed, so you only have to pack-out the one side which is braced. This avoids many headaches!

Hello and thank you. With staggered noggins how do you attach gyprock horizontally? if you're using 2400 sheets horizontal and have the noggins above and below a 2400 high line none of the screws will hit. Thank you.

@Buildsum 6 жыл бұрын

Hi Uri, The plasterboard is nailed to the studs, not the noggins. plasterboard only needs to be fixed, generally at 600mm centres, so fixing to the studs is all that is required. hope this helps

@uriuriuri 6 жыл бұрын

Buildsum thanks so much. Duh! :). You helped me build a shed last year (no gyprock) and it turned out perfect. Now it’s time for an interior wall...

@julzylil 2 жыл бұрын

do you need to check the middle of the wall with the stringline?

@Buildsum 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Mate, once you have straightened the top and bottom the straight edge will let you know what is happening in the middle. You can do it but it tends to get in the way when you are packing and planning the studs.

@steventanis8732 Жыл бұрын

I have problem when I straight the walls on door openings ,i do the walls like you do ( ends first ,top and bottom after) but in door openings some of the jamb studs are now ,so I pack them but end 95mm or 100mm in some cases,and if is square set door jambs they end up 5mm to 8mm different revels Any ideas?

@Buildsum Жыл бұрын

Hi Mate, if you are packing a door stud you would have to plane the opposite side to stop this from happening.

What if your straight edge isn't long enough to get across the whole wall?

@Buildsum 7 жыл бұрын

Hi James As long as your straight edge is long enough to do the height of the wall you can just use the string line method to straighten the top and bottom plates. Hope this helps

Bit late to the party here, but I agree with the previous comment. Isn't it just easier to replace the stud? Especially if you're having to remove the noggins already? Regardless, I appreciate you sharing this information with us.

@Buildsum 5 жыл бұрын

Hi Robert, Yes in this day in age it may be easier and quicker to switch out the stud. Remember this technique has been around since a time when Labour was cheap and the materials were expensive, nowadays that has almost reversed with the labour being a major contributor to the cost of a job.
