Let's play Name that Framing Technique.
-
I'm having a hard time finding names for framed corner types.
I made these as examples and only know of the "3 Stud Corner" however quite a few of them would fit this term. Do any of you know of or are you familiar with forms of identification of these framing techniques?
And while we're at it; show us your framing details and don't be scared to add skp files.

Kristoff,
You show 2 kinds of corners with respect to insulation.
"Non insulated" (closed off to access after dry in)
And "insulated" (easy access to insulate after dry in)Or sometimes the "solid" corner of the attached variety....also "non insulated".
EDIT:Note
The 2x4 in the solid corner depicted are just blocks (shorts/scraps/etc..usually 12"-14")Best,

Thank You Sir...

I had this same problem when I was a child... No one wanted to play with me.
Here's some 2x4 Corners.

I think there might be a bit more in that file than you want. 1.44 meg
Edit: I guess I was too quick and too slow at the same time.
I would just delete the post but that's not possible these days. -
Yeah I saw that too... had to delete and reupload fast but someone got it before I could.

Looking through all my technical books, I don't find any kind of names for these, just examples of corner framing - except for the one in the lower left hand corner, that uses clips to attach the drywall; one book referred to it as a superinsulated corner.

Same problem I've had Daniel...

Kristoff/All,
I am no authority by any stretch........and/so.... not aware of any specific standard "callout" for any stick built (or otherwise) wood framed corners.That said.....I can tell you that most Mechanical....Electrical....Plumbing contractors will prefer any corner that allows them best access.
IOW.......specifying solid(thru/thru)framed corners will get you in hot water with the above mentioned MEP folks. (or at least until they invent drill bits that make 90's)
Best,

one depicted is a "California Corner" It's the one that makes sense.
