ABSTRACT:
A modular wall system comprising a framing assembly supporting a plurality of wall panels. The framing assembly includes top members, bottom members, and studs extending between the top and bottom members for supporting the wall panels. Each stud has a generally rectangular cross-section with a front face, a back face, and left and right side faces. The front face has a recess therein with a longitudinally extending ridged trough therein for receiving threaded fasteners. The back face having an outwardly-opening generally C-shaped channel with a longitudinally extending ridged trough therein for receiving threaded fasteners. Each side face has a generally centrally located, longitudinally extending groove with a ridged trough in the groove for receiving threaded fasteners, at least one longitudinally extending gasket to seal against the edge of a panel mounted on the side of the stud, and an insert mounting slot between the groove and each gasket mounting slot; and a cover strip mounted over the front face of the stud, the cover strip having a generally T-shaped cross-section adapted to interfit with the front face of the stud with the stem of the "T" fitting in the recess in the front face, and the arms of the "T" extending laterally beyond the side edges of the front face to overlap edge margins of the front face of a panel mounted on the side of the stud, and a plurality of threaded fasteners extending through the stem of the "T" shaped cross-section of the cover and into the ridged trough in the front face of the stud.
