Which of the following two cold-formed steel (CFS) stud walls has a higher R-value? Both walls consist of 3-1/2-in.-deep studs and 3-1/2-in.-thick fiberglass insulation. In wall 1, the studs are spaced 24 in. on center and in wall 2, they are spaced 12 in. on center.
What will be an ideal response?
The R-value of the wall with 24 in spacing has a higher R-value because of lower amount of thermal bridging.
