Noggins (blocking in the US?) are used to provide additional support of a timber sub-floor. They’re used in all types of framing - walls, ceilings etc. and are essential to stop timber from twisting over time. In this video I’ll give you a few of my personal tips for using noggins when building a deck structure.

@Gosforth Handyman. Well - Noggin was the King Of The Northmen. And no sign of Nogbad The Bad with your attention to detail! Great work as usual. Stay safe and well.

Hi again Andy. I love your attention to detail and laughed when your brain went walkies. I know the feeling! DeWalt cordless impact drivers are brilliant unless, like me, you left one in the cavity above the ceiling. I did remember but had to remove a sheet of plasterboard to do it 🌞

Oh no! Easy mistake to make Ray!! I dread to think what I've left over the years. 😂😎

Hi Andy, if I’m using a bunch of pre cut noggins. I fix the joists with screws or nails first. Then Come back and fit joist hangers after . 👍 decking looking great

Brilliant, great to have the tips and the maths. Although I will have to rewatch the maths a few times to get my head round it. Warped wood here in North Yorkshire. Particularly doors would be called skellered. Which I think may have something to do with the Vikings. The name that is, not the bendy wood.

@GosforthHandyman 22 дня назад

That's interesting! Some of these joists were terrible. 😂

Very useful as always, could you please tell me what the long bit holder that you use in your impact driver? Regards Paul.

@shaun30-3-mg9zs 24 дня назад

Hi Andy, I use the word "noggins" your sub floor is looking solid. It is annoying with sheet goods, some are measured in mm and some are in inches. as always a great video full of good tips, take care

@GosforthHandyman 22 дня назад

Cheers! I'm 100% pushing for the metric revolution now. 😂😎

@shaun30-3-mg9zs 22 дня назад

Did you pre-drill the joists for the noggins?

@andyc972 22 дня назад

Thanks Andy, more great practical advice there, I think when you're spacing out anything keeping an eye on the running total and checking for square/parallel are key ! Beautiful job on that deck, this is why we DIY, you'd never get a trades person taking that degree of care, but tbf if they did we wouldn't like the cost they'd have to charge us for it !

@GosforthHandyman 22 дня назад

Thank you!! 👍👍😎

@ThePhilGrimm 24 дня назад

At what span are noggins required? How much do they add?

@GosforthHandyman 22 дня назад

It's mainly to stop the joists twisting over time. Struggled to find official regs other than this, not sure if it's still valid though: "Where the joists span over 2.5m, strutting is required to prevent joists twisting when loaded. For spans of between 2.5 and 4.5 m one row of strutting is needed, at the mid span position. For spans in excess of 4.5 m two rows of strutting will be required, positioned at the one third and two third span positions."

@jonathanrhammon1020 19 дней назад

So that is where the term; use your noggin came from. To we Yanks it means to think clearly. Hahaha BTW looks good.

@clarkeysam 23 дня назад

Hi Andy, there's one question id have which wasn't answered in the video, what span doesn't require a noggin? And are there large spans where 2 or more noggins are required?

@GosforthHandyman 22 дня назад

The only official thing I can find is this, but not sure how up to date this is: "Where the joists span over 2.5m, strutting is required to prevent joists twisting when loaded. For spans of between 2.5 and 4.5 m one row of strutting is needed, at the mid span position. For spans in excess of 4.5 m two rows of strutting will be required, positioned at the one third and two third span positions."

Worst part about ordering plywood in Australia was finding they came 2400mm x 1200mm. But all other sheet goods were 2420mm x 1210mm ish. Customer wants 2x 600mm rips? Not possible. Tried explaining it was only a couple of millimetres, but when they're geometric fascia panels on a theatre foyer, it adds up.

My old Dad would call our heads noggins. As in: "Shut your noise you kids or I'll give you a clout across your noggins!" Not that he ever did, because we were too fast for him.

@freetolook3727 23 дня назад

@GosforthHandyman 22 дня назад

Interesting! Also blocking?

@freetolook3727 22 дня назад

I guess? Everyone I know always called them spacers to keep the same space (16" on center) between joists, rafters and wall studs. Helps prevent warping of wood supports.

@@GosforthHandyman they're named after Governor Barry Dwang, who moved from Dundee to Auckland in the late 17th century. He developed a torture device, which emigrating Scots used to detain local Mauri people. It consisted of two uprights, and three "Dwangs". The Mauri would be threaded between the Dwangs, and held in place with a series of bindings. The Scots would then steal their land.
