## How to Calculate Wall Framing Studs

### Formula

**Field Studs = floor(Wall Length / Spacing) + 1**

**Corner Studs = Corners × 2** (extra studs for each corner)

**Opening Studs = Doors × 5 + Windows × 7**

Each door opening needs 2 king studs and 2 jack studs plus a cripple above the header (5 extra). Each window needs 2 king studs, 2 jack studs, 2 cripples below sill, and 1 sill (7 extra). Plates require 3× the wall length (1 bottom plate + double top plate).

Exemple Résolu

A 20 ft wall, 8 ft high, 16" OC, 2 corners, 1 door, 1 window.

  1. Field studs = floor(20 / 1.333) + 1 = 16 studs
  2. Corner studs = 2 × 2 = 4 studs
  3. Opening studs = 1 × 5 + 1 × 7 = 12 studs
  4. Total studs = 16 + 4 + 12 = 32 studs
  5. Plate material = 20 × 3 = 60 linear feet
