# How to frame double-stud wall (party wall)?

1. Create a wall type with two **Structure \[1]** layers in the wall core:

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Note**: Make sure to use different material names in each of these layers.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: if you're creating an air cavity between the stud layers, use **Thermal/Air Layer \[3]** in the Function column.
{% endhint %}

2. Select the wall instance, navigate to **Wall+M** and click on **Link Wall**:

3. Map the wall type layers with configurations. In the example below, the two stud layers are mapped with the same **Framing Configuration**:

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** you can map the two layers with different Framing Configurations if the stud arrangement, spacing or profile type sizes are different.
{% endhint %}

4. Press **OK** to save the settings and close the **Link Wall** dialogue
5. Select the wall instance(s) and click **Frame Wall**:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.besmart.software/3d-modeling-and-design/metal-framing/faq/framing-configurations/how-to-frame-double-stud-wall-party-wall.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
