Determine the number of 8-foot-long studs needed for the gable ends of the garage shown in Figures 14.63 and 14.64. The gable end on the west elevation is the same as the gable end on the east elevation.
What will be an ideal response?
The number of stud is found as follows:
Number of gable-end studs per gable end = 24? × 0.75 spaces per foot = 18 – Use 19 studs per end
Average height = 4? × 2 / 3 = 2?8?
On average, three gable-end studs can be cut from one 8? stud. The quantity must be doubled to account for both gable ends.
Number of studs = 2 ends × 19 per end / 3 per piece = 13 pieces
