During our last discussion about Studs, Bob said that screws are not strong
enough. I have thought about that a lot.
It would be easy to use pocket holes for studs.
If I am wrong, please correct me.
The purpose of toe nails is to hold the stud in place, the load bearing has
nothing to do with the toe nails. So if the screws only job was to hold the
studs in place, then whyWhy are screws too weak to hold the studs?
Their is stress with wind and storms, but if a building is sheeted
correctly, that would make the studs very strong.
