    Drive 10d nails through the top of the header into the ends

    of the jack studs.


    K

    Install wallboard panels using a screwgun and 1 %"
    wallboard screws, spacing the screws every 1 0".
    J. INSTALL THE JACK & CRIPPLE STUDS
    1. Measure, cut, and position the jack studs against
    the inside surface of the king studs, making sure
    the edges are flush. Endnail the jack studs in place,
    driving 10d nails through the header, into the jack.
    2. Measure and cut a header cripple stud to coincide
    with the general stud layout.
    3. Toenail the cripple stud to the lower top plate, and
    drive 10d nails through the bottom of the header
    into the cripple stud.
    K. HANG THE WALLBOARD
    1. Install any electrical wiring in the walls before
    you begin to hang the wallboard.
    2. Hang wallboard on the interior and exterior of the
    closet, beginning with the interior. Use a wallboard
    lifter to raise the panels tight against the ceiling.
    Measure and cut each panel to size, working from
    one end of the closet to the other (see page 95 for
    help with cutting wallboard). Plumb the first panel
    with a level , making sure the side edges fall on
    the center of a stud and are flush with the existing
    wall. Attach each panel with 11/4" wallboard screws
    driven every 10" into the studs.
    L
    Apply wallboard compound to joints with a 6" wallboard
    knife, and then press wallboard tape into the compound.
    Smooth tape with the knife. For corners (inset), install corner
    bead with nails or screws driven every 8" .
    Tip
    Plan the layout of the wallboard panels, avoiding
    joints that fall at the corners of the door opening.
    Joints at these corners often crack and cause bulges
    that interfere with door trim installation. Unless the
    panels span the entire wall, install them vertically to
    avoid butt joints that are difficult to finish.
    L. FINISH THE WALLBOARD JOINTS
    1. Apply a thin layer of wallboard compound over
    the joints with a 4 or 6" wallboard knife. Press
    wallboard tape into the compound immediately,
    centering the tape on the joint. Wipe away any
    excess compound and smooth the joint with a 6"
    knife. Let the compound dry overnight.
    2. Apply a thin finish coat of compound with a 10"
    wallboard knife. Allow the second coat to dry and
    shrink overnight.
    3. Apply the last coat and let it dry before sanding the
    joints smooth.
    4. To finish inside corners, see page 96.
    5. Position corner bead on the outside corner.
    Use a level to adjust the bead so the corner is
    plumb and attach it with 1
    1
    /4" wallboard nails
    or screws spaced at 8" intervals.
    6. Cover the corner bead with three coats of
    wallboard compound, using a 6 or 10"
    wallboard knife. Note: To install the prehung interior
    door and door casing, see page 117.
