Builders will normally order 1 per foot when framing 16" on center to cover the cripples and corners. This does not include the wood required for the bottom and top plate.

A good rule of thumb is to figure 1 - 2x4 stud per foot. This allows for extra cripple, jack and corner studs

How many 2x4s do you need for a 30 foot wall?

Standard studs are spaced 16" apart. 30 feet times 12 inches = 360 inches. 360 inches divided by 16 inches = 22.5. If you are measuring left to right, the right-side stud from the frame becomes the last one. Depending on how you will compensate for the extra 8" at the end, you will need 21 or 22 2x4s.


How many 2x4's will you need to build a 10ft by 10ft deck?

It's unlikely you would use many 2X4s on a deck. The joists (under the decking) are usually 2X6 or larger. The larger the joist, the fewer you need, because you can space them further apart. The decking is made of 1X6s nailed or screwed to the top of the joists, and running perpendicular to the joists or at an angle to the joists. The amount of decking you need depends on whether you intend to make a pattern (herringbone) or a typical deck. The railing might include 2X4s as the top rail, but the support posts are usually 4X4s, and in between those, you usually use small stock to add the decorative posts/slats.

How much 2 by 4 to build a room?

First you will need to tell us how big is the room. There is a 2x4 at the top and at the bottom, and the vertical 2x4s- called studs- are typically placed on 16 inch centers. Bigger room requires more lumber. Number of doors and windows will also affect lumber needs.
