How to build timber stud walls in a new build project.

This is part 1 of my video showing how I set out and fix the top and bottom timber plates of the stud work partitioning in this new build bungalow.

Looking forward to seeing more videos on your journey

Using the laser level is so much quicker and easier than the old traditional way with a plumb bob thanks again for sharing

I’m always amazed by this method of doing stud partitions. Here in Jockoland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 we’d sheet the ceiling, make the frames on the big area of the floor, give it 10-15mm, stand the partitions, Plumb & Fix. Much, much faster. Maybe your Gyproc is Skimmed? Here it’s always Tapped n Filled👍

Hi, finding your videos amazingly helpful as I’m about to embark on my first full size stud wall! Can I ask what plugs and screws you use!
Cheers,
Short carpenter in the making. 😝

Really appreciate this..when you position the floor plates I assume your work from a drawing.. my question is what do you reference from ..the block work, exterior door openings or some sort self determined reference line ie the longest running wall.?. I ask this because I assume people make mistakes so you must have a way of cross referencing..great channel hope it grows..

Random question from me bud, looking to counter batten a wall for a horizontal service (pipes not electrics) and wondering if you can use a 2x1 rather than a 2x2? Can't seem to find anything in the regs to state what's suitable so i'd assume 2x1 rough sawn timber would do the job? Or would it need to be C16

I'm just wondering when you set the walls out and their is a stair opening do you go off the drawing or do you just go off the stair opening? How would you go about running the wall straight through from a stair opening would you find the measure ment to the stair opening and transfer it to the other end of the wall or would you just laser it off the joist?

Do you agree with putting Dpc under stud work? Ive ripped out a few walls with it on and it seems to trap moisturiser and cause rot rather than letting the concrete and timber to dry naturally, a treated timber sole plate makes more sense to me? Plus you have to drill through it? But regs is regs i suppose?

[paulfinnonjoinery]

alright bud, what did you film this on? assuming this was your first vid? deffo wanna start some proper vids for my own work. i posted a quick vid the other day but it was just the result of a job id done rather than me actually doing the said job.

[chingchichow]

Should u put the DPC on the upright studs touching the walls or outer walls on breeze block?

[michaelcurtis]

Just how tall a carpenter are you? 😁 Also awesome channel thank you for the content 👍🏾

[Max__apex]

If the property is got DPC layer under concrete then why use dpc under the wood pieces ?

[jonmcnamara]

Couldn’t hear some of the commentary due to wind noise. You need a fluffy thing. Great videos though.

[andrewjackson]

What model number is your laser level thanks Andy

[TotalCarping]

Great stuff but look at the state of some of that blockwork! shocking

With the cost of timber these days, most developers want that metal stud malarky...
