Quantities: a worked example

Delivering metal studs and ceiling sections in Isle of Wight

Sections come in bundles in long lengths; tell us about access for 3 m plus lengths. Deliveries across Isle of Wight need a ferry crossing, so each one is quoted with the crossing included.

• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.

Before you order metal studs and ceiling sections

Metal or timber?

Metal studs are straight, light and do not shrink or twist; timber is easier for fixing heavy items and is more familiar on domestic jobs.

Stud width and height

Taller walls need deeper studs or closer centres; the system maker's height tables show the limits.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.
