Polymer Construction Studs and Sheathing
A building construction stud and sheathing panel are affixed together by at least one fastener. A stud end cap terminates the stud. The stud has an outer wall that defines a pair of plastic sheathing faces and first and second side walls, and at least one longitudinally extensive void space. At least one fastener anchoring and structurally reinforcing member is contained substantially within the interior of the stud outer wall. In some embodiments, the fastener anchoring and structurally reinforcing member comprises a plurality of longitudinally extensive stud wall ribs protruding internally from the first sheathing face. In other embodiments, cell dividers are provided that are parallel with and spaced slightly from the first and second sheathing faces. In yet other embodiments, internal reinforcing members define an “X”-geometry within the cells. These fastener anchoring and structurally reinforcing members are configured to increase stiffness and strength, and also enhance fastener engagement.
