- Abstract
- This paper, the second of two, examines the effect of screw location and number on the power flow from a wood stud to directly attached gypsum board. It is necessary to evaluate how an offset distance between the point of an applied force and the fastening point affects the power transmitted from the stud to the gypsum board because if the wall has resilient channels drive points and fastening points will not be aligned. Earlier studies had always considered that the points would be aligned.
