How to build a new stud wall against an existing aerated concrete wall?
I have a wall of plastered lightweight concrete that is about 9 cm thick. Part of this wall will be demolished and replaced with a stud wall as a continuation of the lightweight concrete wall.
How do I anchor the new wall to the old one so that it becomes stable and I can avoid cracks between the plasterboard and plaster?

Why don't you continue with aerated concrete? Forget about gypsum, OSB studs, etc. If you have the same material, I think you minimize the risk of different behaviors. Perhaps it's possible to drill in/anchor reinforcement between the shifts?
Yes, that would be an option, but I've never worked with aerated concrete and the new wall will have wall cabinets, so I think studs and boards are better.dextrocell said:
