PERFORMANCE GUIDELINES: 3. WALL FRAMING

3.2 Wall Is Bowed

Acceptable Performance/Condition

It is common for walls to have minor variances in the surface. Varying light conditions can exaggerate surface inconsistency.

For interior walls of a new home, where bowed framing causes local distortion, the variation shall not be more than 20 mm (3/4”) out of line within a 1.2 m (4’) plane.

A straight edge, spirit level or other professional device should be used for all measurements.
