Determine the number of steel studs needed for the tenant finish shown in Figure 16.16. The exterior walls are existing. The studs are spaced 16 inches on center. Add two studs for each door and each intersection.

What will be an ideal response?


The wall length and number of studs is determined as follows:

Wall length = 27?4? + 33? + 11?10? + 2 × 11?5? = 95?

Wall studs = 95? × 0.75 spaces per foot = 72 – Use 73 studs

Studs for doors = 5 doors × 2 studs per door = 10 studs

Studs for intersections = 10 intersections × 2 studs per intersection = 20 studs

Total studs = 73 studs + 10 studs + 20 studs = 103 studs
