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.
Is a 1993 Fairmont double wide home constructed with 2x4s or 2x6s?
All homes produced use a variety of lumber dimensions including 2x4s and 2x6s. Each serves a different purpose in the construction. Typically, joists in the floors and ceilings are 2x6s, as they are a much stronger beam member compared to a 2x4 at a given span length for any simply supported beam. Roof rafters are typically the same dimensions as joists, as the rafters must directly support snow, wind, rain, live, and dead loads. 2x4s are typically used in walls and other miscellaneous construction within the home. In many homes 2x4s make up the exterior walls as well, as they are used to frameout doorways and windows, however some homes may have exterior walls made from 2x6s. The benefits of 2x6s exterior walls lies in the amount of insulation which can be placed in the wall, which aids in the reduction of heat lost to the outside environment, they do cost more though. Open your front door and measure the width of your jamb. Subtract 1/2 inch for drywall and 1/2 inch for outside sheathing. Then see what your width is.
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 do you build an outdoor fort?
You can build one by making a square out of 2x4s and then putting another going vertical in the center. Then you put a piece of OSB board to cover the square. You then do this for all 4 sides and the roof. You can also cut out windows. To make it even better u can tunnel to get in. I don't know how much space u have so make it the size that fits your yard. I really hope this helps. sorry man i had to edit it because u right like th1s: roof.You instead of roof.
