Embodiment Construction

[0042]Referring to FIGS. 1A to 1D, a wall stud 10 is shown including a first stud member in the form of lower stud member 20 and a second stud member in the form of upper stud member 30. The bottom end 22 of stud 10 is provided on lower stud member 20. The top end 32 of stud 10 is provided on upper stud member 30. Stud 10 includes front 12 and rear 14 mounting surfaces which, following installation of the stud, receive plasterboard wall panels by affixing the panels to the front and rear surfaces of the stud 10 by use of appropriate fasteners in a known fashion. The front and rear surfaces of the stud are provided with closely spaced grooves or ripples in a known fashion to improve the ease of engagement of screw fasteners.

[0043]A web 15 extends between the front 12 and rear 14 faces of the stud 10. Bell mouthed service holes 16 are provided at intervals along web 15 which, when installed, are used to route cables and pipes and other conduits in a known fashion.

[0044]The first 20 an...

Abstract

A wall stud which includes opposed mounting surfaces for receiving wall panels, a web is disposed between the opposed mounting surfaces, and the stud has first and second ends. The first end is provided on a first stud member and the second end is provided on a second stud member. The first and second stud members are moveable with respect to one another to provide for adjustment of the effective length of the wall stud.

Description

[0001]This application is a National Stage completion of PCT / AU2012 / 001120 filed Sep. 19, 2012 which claims priority from Australian application serial No. 2011903918 filed Sep. 23, 2011.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present invention relates to wall studs and particularly to those used for constructing internal partition walls.BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION[0003]Currently, the most popular way to build a non load bearing wall, such as a partition wall, is using steel stud and track. First, horizontal top and bottom tracks are secured in place at the desired locations of the top and bottoms of the partition wall. Then vertical studs are installed at regular intervals between the top and bottom tracks.[0004]Studs are obtained which have a length longer than the height of the wall to be constructed. The studs must then be cut to length. The distance between the top and bottom tracks is measured, the measurement is transferred to the stud and the stud is cut. Depending on the levels of the flo...
