Interior Wall Studs

Preparations for framing may seem easy enough upfront. Yet a mistake here or there can mean hours of trouble later on. It could even mean disassembly of the frame. Interior framing provides partitions between rooms, creates storage, hides/encloses mechanicals, supports second-floor joists, or even supports trusses. That's a lot to be concerned with! Here Lesley and Bill pour over Bill's set of plans to ensure that all last-minute changes are reflected on them. Discussions with cabinet makers and plumbers very often reveal problematic spaces that have to be reconfigured before the studs are secured in place.

Bill explains yet again his schedule for the next phase of work. You have to watch builders, they like to disappear at times for no apparent reason. Rumor has it that there is some secret society out there...

Lesley ponders the measurements for one of the first floor walk-in closets.

Dr. Ellen shows that studs come in all sizes and shapes...
