I'm starting a thread to develop some best practices for some reoccurring framing that we do, I'll post pics periodically for comment. What I'm looking for is comments on practical things to do to create extremely sturdy framing or to point out weaknesses. There are lots of ways to skin a cat, so I'm hoping to be able to be inspired by your comments and see some things that I may never have considered.
The first one is a common thing we need to do which is frame out a shower or tub knee wall. Almost always it's made out of 2x6 lumber and our major concern is making it as sturdy as possible since almost always it will be receiving tile.
The blocking at the bottom is there because of a mortar pan would be poured in this version.
