Wall stud spacing


Explanation:
That's how we'd express it for (wood or steel) frame construction in the USA.

"Construction grid dimensions" sounds a bit stilted, right?

Apparently the product comes in 2 widths for different stud spacings?

Perhaps this information is useful. Standard residential spacing between wall studs (center-to-center) is 16 inches or 24 inches depending on whether it is a load-bearing wall. To calculate the gap between studs you need to take the stud thickness into account, whereby a 2\"x4\" stud is actually just over 1-1/2\" thick (cost trimmings...).
