Information Sheet 5.4-1
Personal Protective Equipment
Learning Objectives: After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU

MUST be able to identify the appropriate PPE used
in installing wall studs.
Safety of the workers is the first to be consider before performing any

task. But there are uncontrolled situations that put the workers into danger,
thus, we need to do precautions like using Personal Protective Equipment
to prevent or avoid such situations.
This lesson will discuss the different PPE consistent to job

requirements.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

PPE are equipment that protect the workers from injuries or lessen
the risk of being harmed during accidents. The following are the PPE
required in performing the task in wall stud installation:
1. Safety hat - protects the head from falling objects, or heavy blows
from unexpected situations.
Safety hat
2. Eye protection/Safety goggle - protects the most sensitive part of

the body (eyes) from tiny particles and objects like saw dust and nails.
Eye Protection/Safety Goggles
3. Ear protection - protects eardrums from too much noise produced

when driving nails or operating power tools.

Developed by: CSAT

Ear protection
4. Dust mask - protects the respiratory system from fumes or dusts.
Dust mask
5. Safety gloves - protect the hands for sudden cuts or wounds, also
improve grip especially when using rubberised gloves.
Safety gloves
6. Protective clothing - protects the body from wounds and cuts, or

even from danger if power tools or equipment malfunctioned.
Protective clothing
7. Safety shoes - protects the feet especially the fingers from falling
objects and to maximize traction in slippery work site.

Installing wall studs

MUST be able to:
1. Define wall frame
2. Enumerate the components of wall frame
3. Follow the procedures of installing wall studs
Wall is one of the nine components of a building. It enclosed the area
and provides privacy and protections from hazards outside the building like
extreme wind and intruders.
This lesson will discuss wall and its components and the procedure of
installing wall studs.
Wall frame components

The parts of wall frame is not as complicated as other framing like roof
frame. For the plain outside wall or partition wall there are just five main
components and these are the Sole plate,Cap plate, Vertical and
Horizontal wall studs and Brace(optional).
1. Sole plate - This component serve as the base of the vertical studs and
this is where the bottom of the studs are attached or nailed. The sole plate is
installed prior to the installation of other components. It is installed on top
of the flooring and across or along the floor joists.
2. Top/Cap plate - It is installed at the top of the wall. As the sole plate,
this is where the top of the vertical studs are attached or nailed. In some
cases, this component is eliminated when the carpenter plans to attach or
notch the top of vertical studs to girt plate. But it is necessary to be included
for partitions.
3. Vertical studs - These are longitudinal member of the frame. It

extends from the bottom of the cap plate to the top of the sole plate. The
standard spacing for the vertical studs is 16”. But in some cases, they use
24” spacing especially when structure only needs light construction.
4. Horizontal studs - These are installed horizontally between the

vertical studs. It is also called noggings. It provides the vertical studs lateral
sideways stiffness.

Developed by: CSAT
Deric
Bracing - is used to provide stiffness against longitudinal distortion –
called racking – in the wall frame.
There are two types of partition wall: the bearing and non-bearing.
Bearing partition wall supports the ceiling joist while the non-bearing type
supports itself and can be installed any time after the other framework is
installed.
Steps in installing wall studs (for plain outside wall or partition)
Prior to the installation of the frame, one should check where it will be
attached. For outside walls, it is automatic that you will be attaching the
frame either to the posts, girder, joist and girt.
Step 1: Lay out/measure, cut and install the sole plate.
It is better to check the frame of the floor for you to have a basis on
installing the component. Sole plate should be nailed in each joist it crosses.
If it runs along the girder or joist, it should be nailed with two nails every 2
feet.
Step 2: Lay, out, measure, cut and install the top/cap plate.
For bearing type of partition wall, you need to locate first the ceiling
joists for you to have guide for nailing the cap plate.
For the non-bearing type, it is installed after the installation of the

vertical studs on both sides. The top of the vertical studs should be levelled.
Step 3: Lay-out/Identify studs location
Identify first the location of the studs where it will be installed. You
can choose where you will begin installing, it can be from side to side or
from center to sides. But for better distribution of the walling materials, you
may start from the center. The spacing between the wall studs can be 12”,
16” or 24” on the center.
 Start from one side and measure your choice of spacing, put a mark
and repeat process until the you get from the other side. Be sure to
use only one of the 3 standard distances of studs.
 To put markings on the sole plate, drop plumb bob in each markings
on cap plate and mark the tip of the metal or the line to the sole
plate; or put only one mark on the sole plate and measure your
choice of spacing sideways. This is to ensure the plumbness of each
studs. (Refer to figure 1)

Step 4: Measure, cut, install vertical studs
 Measure the length of the vertical studs from bottom of the cap plate
to top of the sole plate. Measure twice, cut once.
 In cutting, see to it that you cut outside the line.
 Install the vertical studs. Use toe nailing. (See to it that the straight
sides of the studs are facing outwards.)
Step 5: Lay out, measure, cut and install horizontal studs.
 Identify the midway of the cap plate and sole plate. Mark the midway
of the one vertical stud on one side and use water hose level to
transfer the marking to the opposite vertical stud. This is to ensure
the levelness of the horizontal studs to be installed
 Snap chalk line across the vertical studs.
 Measure and cut the horizontal studs.
 Fit the studs between the vertical studs in line with the chalkline.
Secure the studs. Use toe nailing.
If we need the wall to be sturdy, horizontal studs are installed with

spacing 12”,16” or 24” apart. Use only one of the standard spacing for all
the studs. The measurement will start from top to bottom.
Step 4: Measure, cut and install bracing
You can install the brace from (a) stud to stud or (b) across the studs.

Developed by: CSAT
Deric
MUST be able to deal with unexpected situations
based on company rules and regulations.
You’ve learned in the past lessons the PPE that should be
used and the procedures of installing wall studs. Even though we
are equipped with this protective equipment and we are well
oriented on what to do in doing the task, there are still some
cases that uncontrolled situations occur.
This lesson will focus on how to deal with uncontrolled

situations according to company rules and regulations.
Malfunctioned Tools/Equipment
The following are the possible cause of malfunctioning of

tools/equipment but not limited to:
 Part/parts are broken

 Overheating of motor/armature
 Worn-out carbon brass (specially on electric planer, electric
drill and circular saw)
 Malfunctioned switch
 Cut/open wire on power supply chord
 Loose nuts/bolts
If one of these or the like occurs during the work, the

following are steps you need to do:
1. Report it immediately to your head/supervisor/foreman etc.

2. If possible don’t try to fix the unit until an authorized
personnel come and inspect it .
3. Perform tag-out procedures based on manufacturers
instructions. If none, separate it from functioning tools and
perform tag-out procedures.
If the electrical system of the equipment malfunctions, don’t

try to inspect it while it is plugged. Instead, close the circuit

breaker and unplug the unit from the power source. Do the steps
above.
Accidents during the work
Accidents are unpredictable so the only thing that we can

do is to respond immediately and accurately to save the person
from prominent danger.
The following are the possible injuries that may occur

during the work but not limited to:
 Heavy blows caused by falling objects

 Lacerations
 Puncture wounds
 Abrasions
 Electrocution
 Sprain
