Choosing the Right Stud for Your Walls
Choosing the Right Stud for Your Walls
There cannot be any other better option for building of interior walls then studs. In studs, there
are two distinct options available they are wooden studs and metal studs. Both the materials are
being used a lot but more reliable and efficient are the metal studs. Here we have tried to
differentiate between the two kinds of studs:Strength
Strength is probably the most important characteristics of the Venetian Plastering Manchester,
and if we compare the two then wooden studs are probably the sturdier among the two. Metal
ones do appear to be flimsy buy once they are screwed to drywall they become more rigid and
strong.
If you have to hand something, then it is always preferred to use the metal one as they are more
flexible than a wooden one and also don't break with stress. One the other hand by using dry
lining manchester it is easily possible to add structural support whereas metal can only be used
for all the load bearing walls.
Which is easy to install?
Metal one wins hand down over here they are very light in weight if compared to the wood ones.
They are also very thin, and if observed then two metal studs and tracks require about the same
amount of space as required by one wood stud. They are also very easy for transporting and can
be easily moved from one place to another. Metal studs and smart glass manchester can also be
cut without any much problem using aviation snips. Metal studs can also be cut using mitre saw
and a metal cutting blade which makes it possible to cut more than one stud at a time. On the
other hand, if the wood is to be cut then they leave behind a lot of sawdust which is not very
good for health.
Price
Price wise both are almost same but if we look at the material that is required for the fitting of
metal studs they turn out to be costlier than a wooden one. But one point should be noted that
metal studs can be fitted very fast, and the labor charges required for the metal ones is far less
than the wood one.
Efficiency
In longer run wooden stud can encounter many problems, for example, wood is prone to
wrapping and twisting but the metal one is not. Wooden studs can also absorb moisture which
can in turn lead to the growth of mould and can also rot. Metals, as we know, do not rot, so there
are many people that prefer switchable glass Manchester. Wooden studs are also very prone to
damage from insects, and they can be attacked by ants and termites. Wooden studs can also burn
one the other hand a wall built with metal studs can sustain through any major calamity without
any damage.
If we look at the overall picture, then the biggest advantage of metal studs is that they can be
sustained over the years without any need of major repair. On the other hand, wooden ones can
very easily be damaged and require replacement.
