Screw together framework, number per fastening

[Wallawhoa]

About to assemble a house frame consisting of 195x45. Load-bearing beam 195

2pcs 6x120 in wall plate
3pcs 5x100 in load-bearing beam
Are 2pcs 6x120 enough in the sill?

Thanks in advance!

Interested in this as well. What did you find out and with what type of screw?

Hi! Solved it easily, used three 6x120 everywhere. Probably some unnecessary work.

Good luck!

What type of screws did you use?

Hi! It was a C4 wood screw. If I were to build again, I would have used a nail gun, it's not so critical in the end.

Okay. I first thought of using a nail gun but switched to screws 😁 Maybe I'll reconsider then 😁
