Lead sheet suspension stud

Abstract

The present invention relates to an article of manufacture and a method of how to utilize the same in order to create a radiation leak-proof environment. The present invention further relates to a metal stud configured with two holding cavities wherein the first holding cavity and the second holding cavity are constructed so that when a lead sheet is held in the first holding cavity and wherein a lead sheet is held in the second holding cavity the lead sheets overlap, and thereby, create a radiation leak-proof metal stud system.

Additionally, what has been discovered is a radiation leak-proof barrier systems having a metal stud configuration that eliminates the need for a strip of lead behind the joints of abutting sheets of lead lined drywall; it eliminates the need to place lead buttons over the head of each screw used to attach the drywall to conventional metal stud systems; it eliminates the need for the installer to simultaneously handle both drywall and lead sheets; it reduces the potential for back injury to the installer by reducing material handling weight during construction, thereby, minimizes workers' compensation claims; and, it reduces start to finish construction time, while providing maximum protection against radiation escape or leakage.
