Greetings to all in this forum :) . Mr. John Sayer design my recording studio, you can see all the process here
http://www.johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=7020
The final design of Mr. Sayer is the first pics that you see.
At this moments I dont have the money to construct the low ceiling, but I can built this two walls following the design of Mr. Sayer like a first step. You can see the idea in the second pict.
this walls have 50mm of thickness. Are they of wood? can you give me some advice in order to construct those walls?
Thanks in advance...

Lerryns, how did you decide those walls were 50mm thick? I didn't see anything on the SKP file to indicate, and it's not practical to build a wall that thin unless something else will be holding it up besides it's own frame... Steve
Hi Steve, thanks for your respond.
First, Mr. Sayers wrote in this thread http://www.johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=7020 the following:
In that .skp file the measures of the walls are 0,055m , you can see it in figure 1. It is by that I decide that the wall has 50mm. Remenber that I explain that at this moments I dont have the money to construct the low ceiling, but I can built this two walls. I understand that this walls needs his own frames, for that reason I need your recommendations in order to construct these walls before constructing the low ceiling. Thanks in advance Paz Lerryns Hernández www.lerryns.com [/list]I realise that but hey - you've got a very small space there, anyway it's going to be a squeeze. Here's another wild idea I've done this before and it works. The low ceiling between doors acts as a bass trap. Those are NS10s to scale. All the angles and measurements are to scale in the sketchup file. Use sketchup to gain all the info.
If that wall will be supporting ANYTHING, I would recommend using what we call "2x4" framing - these are, metrically speaking, 37mm x 90mm vertical wood pieces placed every 600mm along the wall, and with at least one horizontal piece the same size at the bottom and top of the frame; then, you attach your wall panels to this frame with nails (if wood) or screws (if using gypsum wallboard) and put fiberglass insulation in between the vertical studs, held in place by either more paneling on the other side, or by fiberglass strapping if this is part of a double-framed wall (for sound isolation).
If you spend any time at all looking at others' construction in the 100's of pictures posted on this forum, you'll see what I mean -
Another possible TEMPORARY option might be to simply MOVE the existing partition to where you want the new wall; this would be nearly FREE if it's possible, and since you've not asked anything about isolation (upper floors are NOT easy to accomplish this) the weight of the wall shouldn't make much difference in what the room sounds like inside... Steve
Hi lerryns -
This drawing is not complete but hopefully it will get you started. Good luck.

:D Thanks Steve and Creatch for yours responds. The recommended design is perfect and works perfectly.
We will begin the remodeling and constructions of studio in three weeks. Soon, in another thread , I will put photos of the advances of the construction.
Again, Thanks you very much for all your support. This forum is fantastic.

Yup - 24 inch (600mm) spacing of vertical studs, assuming that your available panels (if not separate boards) are 1200 x 2400mm (4 x 8 feet)... Steve
