Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Jun 12, 2016 7:04 pm DH wants to add some extra wall studs for wall mounting tvs in the home theatre, master and family room. With a steel frame, how does this work? Do they add more steel? Timber? Meeting with builder this week to discuss, but thought I'd ask here first in case it's a ludicrous suggestion? Re: Wall studs for hanging TVs 2Jun 12, 2016 8:10 pm We are currently building with JG King (steel frame) and we added extra noggins (wood) to certain places eg tv and we have a very large & heavy wedding photo. The carpenter secured them into the steel frame so well they wont be going anywhere. Our site supervisor said you can also screw into the steel frame. Hope this helps Thank you again Simeon..

It will be still very interesting to see the state of your framing after 10-15… 10 29659 Thanks for the insights, that makes perfect sense, and yeah, I will be leaning on the experience of the excavator operator entirely. 6 16048 |
