Angle screwing

[Studion]

Hey!

I'm going to screw a bunch of walls together with 45x95 studs.
How many screws do I need per stud and how long should they be?
Is the angled screwing sufficient or should I supplement with, for example, screws through the top plate or sill into the studs? The walls are being built on the floor and then raised, followed by three layers of drywall...

nail instead becomes cheaper.
you can also have bottom and top rails in metal, then you screw directly

Three layers of plaster, why?

 

[Studion]

Thank you, but I will screw and everything will be wooden studs. Please answer my questions instead.

Three layers of drywall, why?

Soundproofing.

 

[SBH]

then why angle screw when they're lying down? just put the screw straight up and down

 

[Studion]

then why screw diagonally when they are lying down? just put the screw straight up and down

Seriously man. I'm asking concrete questions. If you can answer, then do so. Otherwise, maybe you can just avoid the thread and let someone else answer my questions? Thanks in advance.

nail or screw straight through the top plate and sill into the end grain, nail approx: 100mm if I had screwed then I would have used equally long screws. if the wall is nailed while lying down, it usually doesn't need to be angled. the boards bind the studs together!

just trying to make it easy for you.
are you going to write the same to daugard?

IF I want to toe screw 45x95 studs, how many screws should I use per stud and how long should they be? Assume that toe screwing is the only possible option and my life depends on getting the answer. There are no other options and all nails are also finished. Thank you in advance.

ridiculously silly.

If I want to toe-screw 45x95 boards, how many screws should I use per board and how long should they be? Assume that toe-screwing is the only possible option and my life depends on finding out the answer. No other options are available and all nails are also used up. Thanks in advance.

As long screws as possible without them sticking out on the other side. That is 5-6x90-100.

Otherwise, I agree with, among others, SBH.

Two screws/per intersection

I have no answer for you, just a comment on the thread's development. It's so darn common here that you ask a concrete question and then get questioned yourself in some sort of old-man-but-I-actually-know-more-than-you attitude. THAT is really ridiculous. How hard can it be to answer a question if you know the answer???

I'm not entirely innocent myself in the past but have learned more and more by experiencing these reactions myself, but nowadays I barely start threads at all. Precisely because of this.

Two screws/crossing

Thank you for a concrete answer. So a screw from each direction, or what does crossing mean? Are they screwed in the middle or towards the edge of the beam?

Why do you have to angle screw? It's so much better to screw through the sill/rafter plate if it's lying down anyway.
