Determine the number of 2 × 4 @ 92 5/8? studs needed for the garage in Figures 14.63 and 14.64. The studs are spaced 16 inches on center. Add two studs for each door and corner. Ignore the gable ends and studs over the overhead door.
What will be an ideal response?
The studs are calculated as follows:
Wall length = 30? + 4? + 4? + 30? + 24? = 92?
Wall studs = 92? × 0.75 spaces per foot = 69 – Use 70 studs
Studs for doors = 2 × 2 = 4 studs
Studs for corners = 4 × 2 = 8 studs
Total studs = 70 studs + 4 studs + 8 studs = 82 studs
