stud wall question

yar1950 · 2 Jul 2013

I want to put Rockwall flexi insulation in a 100x50 stud partition. It seems that most insulation and acoustic boards are for 600mm centre studs.
My question is are 600mm centre studs acceptable to building control or do they have to be 400 centres. My wall is not holding anything above in terms of weight.

thanks

B/regs don't specify stud wall spacings.

600 centres will be Ok with 12.5mm boards

600mm spacing for studs is acceptable.
