FAQ
Why double top plates? +
Most residential walls use a double top plate to tie wall sections together and support ceiling/floor loads above. Single top plates are allowed for short walls only.
16 or 24 on center? +
16" is standard for load-bearing walls and most residential framing. 24" saves lumber but only works in specific code-compliant assemblies (advanced framing).
