When building a partition wall in the basement, you can construct it in wood by placing the underlying sill plate on tar paper as you would with a sill, and then frame it up, etc.?
The basement is always at least 6 degrees warm.
Moisture should always be able to migrate out through the wall, so it shouldn't lead to moisture problems, or?
An alternative would also be to build the underlying sill plate on spacers to create an air gap underneath, but that might sound a bit too tricky.
Perhaps it's best to err on the side of caution and build the partition wall in concrete blocks (leca)?

Or build with steel studs. Works just as well and is essentially as simple as with wooden studs, and you avoid moisture problems.

The plaster on the studs then? The paper on the plasterboard molds incredibly easily.
But a partition wall is ventilated from both sides, so it shouldn't be a problem.
The worst part might be the stud that goes against the outer wall, but you can place it a bit away if you're building with wood.

Building it with leca might be an option. However, it will probably be quite a bit more expensive. Aquapanel or a similar product + steel studs might be a cheaper alternative.
Sure, it's a bit more expensive with leca, but it's not an outrageous cost. I have (and will) build with leca. Alternatively, I've heard of people gluing leca instead, partly to avoid the mess with mortar and that it should work just as well. Does anyone know?
Personally, I would have skipped the board and everything, just focused on steel studs as sole plates. Then regular wooden framing... In a basement interior wall, the moisture migration isn't as significant as in a basement exterior wall... Instead, a regular framing with steel studs at the bottom is sufficient as mentioned.
