Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2467843A] A framing system comprises a plurality of laterally spaced-apart studs 41 and a header 10. Each stud 41 comprises an elongated generally C-shaped lipped channel having a web 3 and side flanges 4, 5 which extend continuously the length of the element. Each of the flanges 4, 5 has an elongate slot 6 therein. The slot 6 is located on the central longitudinal axis of the flanges 4, 5. The side flanges 4, 5 may have inturned lips 7, 8 at the upper edge to define a generally C-shaped form. The web 3 may have a pair of laterally spaced apart elongate slots 40 therein for mounting of an ancillary element such as an angle cleat or bracket 50. The header 2 is of channel section comprising a web 10 and a pair of flanges 11, 12. The header 2 is mounted to the studs 41 in such a way as to accommodate limited vertical movement of the header 2 relative to the studs 41. Fixings 42,43 are screwed through the flanges 11, 12 of the header and extend to engage in the slots 6 in the stud flanges 4, 5. Indicating means may be provided on the flanges of the header to give a consistent fixing position.
