Finger jointed studs have been around since the 1980's. They can be used for structural framing.

I know builders who only use finger jointed lumber, for building entire homes. Simply because of how straight they are, less prone to twist, bowing, warping, etc.

Last handful of years, a lot of builders have been switching to LVL glulam studs. They are hella stout, almost no bounce when nailing to them.
We have a supplier that carries those “bridged” studs or whatever. It’s like a smaller stud on each side with dowels in between. No more thermal bridging through the stud. I’ve used the glulam style and they are stout for sure. This will be the future since the trees that are cut for lumber now suck!

Good morning. We got some moisture overnight. The combined total for the last 3 days, including our snow melt measure out to 1.82".
More thought to be coming late evening and overnight through Tuesday morning.

Morning men, 32 and cloudy with wind gusts all day

Slacking and coffee on the agenda

Carry on
Hey Uncle 3browns, don’t forget to start building your snow bunker with the recent accumulations. Just incase the aurora decides to go nuclear n’ stuff.
