Hello to you all
I wonder if any of you have an idea "between thumb and forefinger" how long it might reasonably take to install steel studs, insulation, and plywood walls in a basement of 43 square meters? Grateful for a quick response.
 
If everything is straight, plumb and level, I would count on 3 x 900 boards' width per hour, cc 450 - 7 standing studs.
How many meters of wall? Windows, doors? Pipes, radiators?

Thanks for the quick reply! What a Forum! Length of the House 11 meters Gables 5 meters. No radiators. (Underfloor heating) 2 small windows with dimensions Height 67 cm, width 55 cm. 1 window with dimensions Height 93 cm, width 145 cm and finally 1 window that is height 64 cm and width 115 cm. 1 door with height dimension 198 cm and width 80 cm. Height from floor to ceiling after cast concrete floor is 2 meters and 20 cm. Not standard dimensions, of course...
No, unfortunately, not everything is straight and plumb. The house is an old log frame from a Härbre, which had a basement foundation cast for it once upon a time.

But the basement walls should still be cast/masoned vertically...
Okay, say it takes 2-3 hours to measure and level the top and bottom rails, then it's just about stacking the studs and screwing...
