Abstract
The invention relates to a dry-connection stud having a web and a first and second flange connected to the web, wherein flange beads are provided in at least one of the flanges, wherein the flange beads each extend in the longitudinal direction of the stud over a flange bead length that is less than an overall length of the stud, wherein the flange beads are disposed at a center distance from each other. The invention further relates to a dry-construction wall with such a dry-construction stud.
Claims6
A dry-construction stud comprising:
- a web and first and second flanges connected to the web;
- wherein a plurality of spaced apart flange beads are provided in at least one of the flanges;
- wherein the flange beads each extend in the longitudinal direction of the stud over a bead length (A), which is less than a total length (B) of the stud, wherein the flange bead length (A) is between 40 mm and 70 mm, wherein a center distance (E) of the flange beads neighboring one another is between 100 mm and 250 mm, wherein the web has a first web section, which forms an edge portion of the web and merges into a bent first flange connecting section that connects the first flange to the web, and in that the web has a second web section, which forms a further edge portion of the web and merges into a bent second flange connecting section, which connects the second web section to the second flange, wherein the web has a web bead arranged between the first and the second web sections, wherein the flange beads reduce sound passing through a dry-construction wall when the stud is assembled in the dry-construction wall, wherein the web bead is arranged centrally in the web, wherein the dry construction stud is a C-stud, wherein the web bead has a web bead height which is between 1 and 5 times the material thickness (D) of the stud, wherein the flange beads have a flange bead height (C) which is between 0.5 and 2 times the material thickness (D) of the stud, wherein the bent first and second flange connecting sections each have a bending radius between 1 mm and 3 mm, wherein the width (K) of the web is between 30 mm and 300 mm and wherein the width (L) of the flanges is between 30 mm and 60 mm.
