I am not 100% sure. I don't recommend doing it this way. I would think they are roll forming it right in the factory to size. I can ask them for a tour of the plant?
@@ConstructionKronies interesting. I would assume a thicker gauge track like 18 or 16 would be better than sniping channel. However, I love your videos. It's great to see how others are building and taking different places. You're a good teacher 👍
My friend has a project building offices with large glass walls and sliding doors. The headers are twisting because the 20 gauge metal is not stiff enough over a long span, 20 feet or more. So I thought the idea of using studs in the header as a solution. Or placing 2x4s under the track. They are not load-bearing but the glass is heavy.
@@markflores4978 Sounds like you need box beams and yes for sure studs need to be in the headers. You can also up the gauge to 18 gauge. Here are 3 box beam videos: ruclips.net/video/s7Fd1zFCjws/видео.html ruclips.net/video/ep75Co5SWL4/видео.html ruclips.net/video/lSJIU3aef8s/видео.html
I am wanting to take the thin foam often used on the foundation seal to slow down heat transfer and use that type of assemble to create a rain screen and screw that assembly on the outside wall and then go over it with metal for the siding.
@@ConstructionKronies I like that. Once the engineer has not issues with it, it's a good material saver!! I wonder if there are is a header product that saves time and money? Of course size/gauge/length varies so it's tricky
Believe it or not there is not a lot of demand for it on YouTUbe, I am one of the only channels that covers it. This is my main metal stud playlist but I have many more related playlist, almost 800 videos on framing and blueprints ruclips.net/p/PLRtmYu3z-FENOxNCqdjW0ey47mSNc5Klm

How do they cut the channels in the stud/track to accommodate the stud?😮

I have screwed metal back to back and stuffed it with Johns Manville mineral wool batts and it works great.

3 tracks 2studs
Yeah thats how we used to build them but now we just flip the top one to catch the header studs.

@@AMindInOverdrive Yes there are I have seen them. Check out these two links spantec.com.au/products/boxspan-steel-beams/www.structuremag.org/?p=10236
Badass channel.
Thank you!
I wish there were more videos on working with metal studs.
