Concrete Wall - CMU, Drywall, Wood Studs
Wood Studs and Drywall CMU concrete walls combine the strength of Concrete Masonry Units (CMU) with the versatility of a wood stud framework and drywall finishing. In this system, wooden studs are attached to the CMU wall, creating a frame to which drywall can be affixed. The space between the studs can be filled with insulation for enhanced thermal and acoustic performance.
This combination is advantageous for providing a smooth interior finish while retaining the structural benefits of CMU. It allows for easy installation of utilities and offers flexibility in interior design, making it a popular choice in residential construction.
Wood Stud Drywall CMU Walls are constructed with common heights of 8’-16’ (2.44-4.88 m), typical widths of 12’-32’ (3.66-9.75 m), and overall wall depths of 9.63”-17.63” (24.5-44.8 cm). The studs are spaced at 24” (61 cm) with stud depths of 3.5”, 5.5” (8.9, 14 cm).
