Wall studs are generally spaced 16" on center (O.C.). Set the bottom (sole) plate and top plate flat. The first stud will sit on the end of the plate. Measure and mark 15-1/4" from the end for the near edge of the second stud. From this mark make marks every 16" for the near edges of the remaining studs. (The reduced spacing between the first and second studs ensures that a 4-foot-wide piece of sheathing can be flush with the outside edge of the first stud but land in the center of the fourth stud.)
