Shear walls are framed with 2 x 6s spaced 16”OC.
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
This statement is true because shear walls are typically constructed using 2 x 6s spaced 16" on center. Shear walls are structural elements designed to resist lateral forces such as wind or seismic loads. The use of 2 x 6s spaced 16" apart provides the necessary strength and stability to withstand these forces. This spacing also allows for the installation of sheathing materials such as plywood or oriented strand board (OSB) to further enhance the wall's resistance to lateral loads.
