I dont know why they have to lie about it. At $5/8ft board you’d think I paid for the full 1.5. Edit: I mixed up nominal with actual.

Well, you’ve changed the goalposts from drywall on furring strips to a shear wall.
Uhhh what…? I was explaining how everything is structural while you kept moving the goalposts away from furring strips being able to be used structurally. Yeah I picked a not so great example, but they are still fucking structural components lmfao.
Give your head a shake.
Most places that we’re going to talk about have an electrical code as part of the building code. Is electrical wiring structural?
Did you respond to the wrong comment or something?
No.
Okay then, that has nothing to do with whats being discussed, but you’re free to comment about electrical I guess.
I thought we were discussing what qualifies as structural. I guess we’re just talking about whatever you feel like talking about.
I’ve been defending my points about how certain components of structural assemblies are structural.
You can also use a sheet of plywood in non-structural ways. No different than claiming that these furring strips and sheets of drywall aren’t structural. I can point out plenty of places where plywood isn’t structural, but that doesn’t change that it’s still used structurally.
I think this thread is being taken over by people with zero education on this subject. What’s with all the insults for pointing out the painfully obvious? Oh that’s right, people don’t like being proven they are dumb and lash out as a last result. That’s right.
Blocked.
But, furring strips don’t have the integrity or quality control to be structural components. Part of why they’re so cheap is because they’re complete junk structural.
I think might be confusing furring strips (a specific type of wood product) with anything laid against another structure (brick wall, studs, etc).
