Cost effectiveness

[WWilts]

Partition walls (not load bearing), ground floor. Option to mount TV, shelving etc desirable. Good acoustic separation needed.

 

Options

 

1. Concrete blocks + plaster 12.5 mm both sides (concrete footings in place already but foundation masonry not yet built). Paint finish

2. Metal stud walls with Habito boards, paint finish. Above slab (or above screed with UFH?).

3. Timber stud walls with noggins or OSB3 for fixing stuff, plasterboard, skim, paint finish. Above slab (or above screed with UFH?)

 

Most cost effective approach wins, but which option is it?

Metal stud with two layers of 15 mil sound  block will out perform block Acoustically and be more cost effective
