Good evening all,
I was watching Risinger build show and it featured the tstud insulated framing studs.
Look intersting but wondering if someone here have took a closer look?

Hey Eric,
There has been some discussion here (links below). And we'll be taking a closer look at them in an article soon.

I am intrigued by the Tstud as well but am wondering if there is any concern about a firestop. Any thoughts on this concern if the top plate and bottom plate are a Tstud as well?
