Interior wall thickness?

[mattiasp]

But if you can glue OSB (and it obviously works well), then this issue with form instability can't be a big problem. Gluing OSB should then be a safe way to get walls that warp?

I've used OSB everywhere, without allowing for margins, and haven't seen any problems with it?

All the OSB I have used has been waxed, so it probably can't be glued. Is there unwaxed OSB?

Don't quite understand your question...or is there an extra "not"?
It's not a problem for wood panels such as/OSB that warp because you have an identical panel on the other side of the studs that counteracts. These are interior walls.

The OSB board is not completely dimensionally stable. It should be mounted with a certain distance between the boards. 30:- difference is not that much, I think.

The plywood should also be done if we are to be picky..

Hmm.. I was thinking of putting OSB behind the drywall in my garage (even in the ceiling). How much spacing should there be between the boards?

Tomas, sorry for "hijacking" the thread for my own question. Hope you find an answer useful..

A lamella thickness on the folding rule... i.e. around 3 mm

Sorry for bringing up an "old" thread, but I think you shouldn't generalize osb.

OSB 2 has a simpler design which results in greater moisture movement compared to OSB 3. I know that byggmax uses osb2.

If it's not a load-bearing wall you're building, 45x70 lumber is usually used. If you have single plasterboard on the wall, the total width becomes approximately 95 mm. I have a note that standard dimensions are 93, 100, 118, and 147 mm to be able to work with different studs and sheet coverings.

Hi,

I have read the question and your answer, and I have a question about the thickness of the studs. I am going to build a room, the walls are not load-bearing, and I wonder if 28x70 studs will be enough. Do you think that will work?
