Drywall or interior non-load-bearing framing metal studs are C-shaped channels, roll-formed from corrosion-resistant galvanized steel. Gypsum wallboard, veneer plaster, or traditional
lath and plaster is applied to the metal framing to complete the non-load-bearing, nonstructural wall assembly. Most common uses of non-load-bearing metal framing include partition walls,
ceilings, and column fireproofing in low-rise, mid-rise, high-rise, educational, institutional, and multi-use commercial structures.
- C-shaped channels
- Metal studs will not warp, twist, or bow, which results in straighter walls free from cracks and nail pops
- Residential uses include basement framing and partition walls
- Resists fire and moisture
- Prepunched holes for electrical and plumbing access
