WWilts Posted May 29, 2022 Posted May 29, 2022 Will 9mm OSB do for allowing fixings to a stud wall? Or is 11mm OSB needed? Any particular kind of OSB?
JohnMo Posted May 29, 2022 Posted May 29, 2022 Looks like a hard way to make a stud wall. Are there any benefits over 3x2 studs.

Nickfromwales Posted May 29, 2022 Posted May 29, 2022 With studs at 600mm OC, deffo 11mm. Screws will turn out of 9mm if you fix anything with a cordless drill. I’m racking walls out on my current clients MBC TF and I’m using a mix of 11, 15 and 18mm depending on what’s known to be going where. On walls which need the 18, but I don’t want to lose space, I’m in-filling between the studs instead of going on top of them. 15 and down is generally just fixed on top fir ease / speed. 1
