Welcome to our latest building system episode on The Build Review where we unveil a significant advancement in the construction industry: the T-Stud Insulated Framing System. We’re joined by our regular guest author, Matt Risinger, from The Build Show, who will guide us through this innovative building system that addresses the timber framing challenges faced by builders in the USA.
Traditional 2×4 inch timber framing, prevalent in spec homes or homes built to sell in New Zealand and Australia, has long been the go-to method due to its history of cost-effectiveness and availability. However, it has presented builders with issues such as limited space for insulation and services. The problem of wet timber twisting when drying out is particularly exacerbated by New Zealand’s overzealous use of timber treatment throughout the build, making the already wet timber even wetter – and even more prone to twisting, cracking, and failure during drying.
