Newly built house - studs or OSB?

[SBH]

Yes, you always do that when there is no requirement for a layer of obs, only crosspieces of osb. It goes super fast, just put the board there and screw a couple of screws into a 2 metal strip and it's set.

have you learned that in your four years?

have you learned that in your four years?

does it matter how I learned it? It is a common approach.

Why do you call it "kortling"? The function is not at all the same as kortlingar.

Why are you calling it a noggin? The function is not at all the same as noggins.

an embedded osb between studs is a noggin?
or what do you mean?

 

[RoBo]

that's what I've said, that you install it between the studs so the wall doesn't get wider and there's no additional work with installing the frame.

you were the one who said that there is more work with installing the frame when you install OSB as nogging

Read my first post 12. I wrote that there is more work if you install OSB behind the gypsum, that's why I suggested installing it between the studs. Why should one use metal?

Read my first post 12. I wrote that it creates more work if you install OSB behind the drywall, which is why I suggested installing it between the studs. Why should you use metal?

aha okay, must have missed that.

we usually install OSB between the studs with metal straps, it's cheap and very easy. how do you do it?

 

[RoBo]

Apply wood glue then some screws from the drywall side, then it holds. Easier to do that side first.

 

[KnockOnWood]

The fasteners available on the market are designed to be installed and not removed later without leaving large holes in the walls

Aren't regular Molly bolt expanders really easy to remove?
You just break off the flanges with side cutters and push the bolt expander into the wall.

But why hang a big TV on the wall in the first place?
Place it on a low TV/radio stand instead.
One day/year it will be replaced with a bigger/nicer/sharper one anyway!

Apply wood glue then some screws from the drywall side then it holds. Easier that side first.

But what about those against the doubling side then?

an embedded OSB between studs is a nogging?
or what do you mean?

The definition of a nogging that I have is as it is presented on Wikipedia.

"Nogging is a shorter stud placed perpendicular to and between the main studs, the purpose of which is to stabilize longer parallel studs in wooden buildings. It can also be used to stiffen a construction like a floor."

You place short studs between long studs in, for example, joists to prevent them from twisting. You don't get that function at all with an OSB.

What do you mean by nogging?

 

[Tosse]

One also installs noggings in lightweight walls to have material to attach heavy objects like kitchens. These can be replaced with plywood pieces, metal strips, etc., which are also called noggings even if they may not meet Wikipedia's definition.

The definition of a "kortling" that I have is as it is presented in Wikipedia.

"Kortling is a shorter beam placed perpendicular to and between the main beams, intended to stabilize longer parallel beams in wooden structures. It can also be used to make a construction such as flooring stiffer."

Short beams are placed between long beams in, for example, floor joists to prevent them from twisting. You do not achieve that function at all with an OSB.

What do you mean by kortling?

A kortling is a reinforcement in the wall that can be done in several ways, with beams, obs, plyfa, etc.
An OSB in the wall is also called kortling.

So, kortling has completely changed its meaning in the construction industry. That was good to know.

 

[hul]

Then, in other words, kortling has completely changed meaning in the construction industry. That was good to know.

haha no, go to any construction site in Sweden and say that you want a plyfa kortling for kitchen installation and I promise you will get the same everywhere and everyone knows what it is

Then the term kortling has completely changed its meaning in the construction industry. That was good to know.

they even sell brackets for installing plywood between studs called "KORTLINGSBESLAG"
