Hi,

I am looking for some help.

I have a shell loft and am about to start work on the loft.

Can I get some advice on how to put up the stud walls and the location of the head and sole plates.

In the Stud Wall Location 1 pic;

Number 1 is where I will put the sole plate,
Number 2 is the dwarf wall
Number 3 is the roof rafters

Question - would I put noggins in between the roof rafters to enable me to fix a 4x2 for the stud wall?

In the Stud Wall - Head Plate - Loft pic:

Question: Where I have circled, next to the steam beam , would I put noggins there to enable me to attach a head plate?

Any advice is appreciated.
