Need the upper sill in a wall against the floor joist?

[TH-huset]

Hello, I'm building a house on a truck and therefore want to build light. My question is if the “upper sill” no. 2 in the picture is necessary? Can't you just fasten it with brackets to the floor joists? Most of the studs match the floor joists and for those that don't, can you just notch out a bit?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, but of course it's possible to do as you describe.

Thanks, I see that now, there should be an image now. And thanks for the answer, may I then ask what the purpose of the syll is?

It's easier to build with sill. It becomes more stable.
You can build the entire wall lying down and then raise it up.
