Short ceiling lath with gap to the drywall, stable?

[peterwesterlund]

I'm going to mount a heavy TV and have placed blocking behind the drywall, then put up the drywall, plastered, and everything. However, I now notice when screwing in the screws for the TV mount that there is about half a cm of space between the drywall and the actual blocking, the wooden stud. Does the mount lose its load-bearing capacity now? Will it rest and weigh on the drywall because of this?

I am setting up a heavy TV and have put blocking behind the drywall and then put up the drywall, spackled and everything. However, I notice now when I screw in the screws for the TV mount that there is about half a cm of air between the drywall and the actual blocking, the wooden stud. Does the mount lose its load-bearing capacity now? Will it be putting weight on the drywall because of this?

there is a difference in load-bearing capacity when the blocking is not flush.

there is a difference in load-bearing when a noggin is not a block.

What do you mean? What's a block?

unfortunately, maybe a bit old-fashioned talk for you

Are you trying to be deliberately unclear, or what's the purpose of this?

Ontopic... I'm mostly wondering how you've managed to get such a gap. Did you place the shortling too far in, or has the board buckled out? If the board is buckling out, it might be pulled back when you screw the TV in.
What's happening is that you're getting a bend in the screw instead of a pure tensile force. How bad that is, I can't say for sure, perhaps it's enough to use a few more screws than you initially planned?

That it is not flush, for example, is established in construction.

Ontopic.. I'm mostly wondering how you could have gotten such a gap. Have you set the blocking too far in, or has the board bulged out? If the board is bulging out, maybe it will retract when you screw on the TV? What happens is that you get bending in the screw instead of pure tensile force. How bad it is, I don't dare to answer, maybe it’s enough to set a few more screws than you initially planned?

no.? only you seem to be wondering.
it depends on how you install blockings, so it easily becomes air and not block against.
there are bends in the screw anyway. with proper installation, the bending is less

It is well-known in construction that it is not flush, for example.
