I am about to order the wall plates for a 2 story extension. Is there guidelines for the length. One wall is 9 metres long so I am trying to find out if using 2 pieces at 4.5 metres is acceptable along this wall. I understand that if we use 2 pieces then we would need to make a scarf joint.
Also, are we meant to just butt the plates up where 2 walls meet at right angles. Or do we again use a joining cut?
