That is more-space-on, not moron, studs. When I build the wall between the finished room and the shop area, if you remember, I am off-setting the studs so that the two wall surfaces are not tied together except at the header and footer.
I was just wondering if there is any reason why I shouldn't turn the studs 90 degrees. That would give a wider surface to mount the wall cladding to, and I would think that the structural rigidity will mainly come from the footer and header connection, not so much from the studs. This would also make it easier to install insulation because the interlaced studs wouldn't overlap as much. Just checking sanity here. Thanks. -- Blue skies. Dan Rossi Carnegie Mellon University.
