Home Improvement Asked on September 30, 2021
To make a long story short, please check the picture that I took. There are 2 vertical load bearing studs are not parallel. The contractor moved one of the studs to the left at the bottom.
Is that OK to be like that? Or it will be a potential problem in the future?
Thanks in advance!
While the world won't end if it stays, the top of the stud should also be moved. It's easy to do and lazy not to. There are a few reasons:
More concerning are the places where joists rest on unsupported plates (due to the plates being cut completely out). Studs should be added against the duct cutouts to support those areas.
