Hey, I frame in USA and find your videos awesome! Can you tell me the basic structural names of your lumber? Like we have 2x4 and 2x6 studs, what do you call your lumber? What is the actual dimensions of your thickness and width? I have the Imperial mindset here so I'm trying to get a feel for metric. Thank you sir!
Hey mate, here in Australia our timber sizes are 70x35, 70x45, 90x35, 90x45, 120x35, 120x45, 140x35, 140x45, 190x35, 190x45, 240x35, and 240x45. All of our measurements in the construction industry are always in millimetres. And all our timber wall frames are built with 90x35 timber wall studs. All of our houses are built with timber here but steel frame houses are becoming more popular but only in termite areas. But steel frame houses are inferior to timber houses.
I want to be you lol your knowledge is amazing in all your videos. Im on week 2 of my new job framing and since ive done other things for years alot comes into play that I already know but im just soaking it in and being humble, we are laying trusses today. I guess aussie workers cuss as much as us american workers haha have a good day fellas, enjoying a great view on lunch rn
@@Jack_martin legend thanks 🙏, I was a bit confused because I’m doing a course at a trade school and was told to split the studs evenly but it seemed counter productive after seeing your videos where you mark out standard spacings, thanks for your help man
I might sound like a knucklehead asking this, but what happens when you get to the end of a wall and the stud spacing isn’t exactly 450mm? For example if you have a wall that is 2600mm long, there is an odd spacing at the end. Do you just leave it or would you recalculate your 450 centre’s to be something else?
I was taught to evenly space them even if that meant the 450 centres become a bit less. I think you could also just have a small spacing at the end, not entirely sure to be honest. The important thing is that the centres aren't more than 450, as the code states.
Anything under 450c is fine. The point is that non of your stud pacing exceeds 450 and that there are studs to pick up plaster board or your cladding if it’s not brick
It looks awesome mate, keep up with your vids since I don t see any Aussie version of Scott Brown Carpentry :D

Cheers mate! appreciate it!
What if the length of the wall isn’t equally divisible by 450 or 600?
Have an odd spacing on the end

you would just leave it.
but you need a stud at the end
Get a stud at start and end of your plate. Then re space at 433mm centres or whatever it works out to be.
