Getting the right CLS timber
Loadbearing walls
If the wall carries load it needs graded timber to a design. Plain CLS is not automatically structural.
Stud spacing
Studs are usually set at 400 mm or 600 mm centres to suit 1200 mm wide plasterboard.
Quantities: a worked example
A 4.8 m partition 2.4 m high at 400 mm centres takes 13 CLS studs, 9.6 m of head and sole plate and a row of noggins, then boarding on both sides. Work out the boards too
How delivery works in Rochester
CLS travels in bundles alongside plasterboard and is easy to hand off at the kerb. Rochester is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
