I can't seem to find it on my phone but anyone have the direct link for the white book that gives the build up specifications for the metal stud walls?

I can find copy of marketing blurb but not what thicknesses, dB etc may be.

 

Other thing, any thing thinner than than their 48mm range? Exploring possibilities of dividing up the bedroom to create a wardrobe/dressing area and doesn't need to be sound proofed.

 

Will this help?

For anything smaller you could use timber of any size, but it will be more wobbly. Perhaps use 38 x 63 turned sideways for extra strength and line it with ply or other board.

Thanks guys.

 

Had a thought today in work.

The wall would be backed with wardrobes. Could always have the floor tor ceiling wardrobes fitted with plasterboard saving some space.

Make "the wall" L shaped and have the part of the wall that runs the depth a standard thickness, creating the illusion of a wall. It's then all down to the construction of the wardrobes to create a secure frame for the boarding.

 

The room is large but awkwardly shaped . The bed is currently in a corner (still enough room for bedside table etc) but the space left feel wasted. It's definitely a cad job to play around with possibilities
