Thanks in advance for any help.
Question: I am planning on having two 1/2 height walls surrounding a
44" Neo corner shower. Framless glass on top of the walls to the ceiling and a door between the 1/2 height walls. I am wondering if the walls have to be made with 2x4's. I ask this because I would like to minimize the wall width.Normal wall (from what I can see):
2x4 with 1/2" sheetrock on exterior and 1/2" Durlock/cement board on inside with tile.I would like to make the wall thinner. Can I trim the 2x4s or use narrower wood? Will it affect strenght/integrity? Is there code on this?
I will be using a Dix Systems pan liner for the shower.
