How it's worked out
Studs = wall length ÷ spacing + 1, plus 2 per opening and 2 for corners. Plates = one bottom plate and a double top plate. One noggin row up to 2.7 m high, two rows above that.
Estimates only. Check sizes, coverage and quantities with your supplier, engineer or certifier before ordering. Standards references are a guide, not compliance advice.
