To frame a basement wall, you will want to follow these general steps:
1. Position the bottom plate, top plate, and wall studs in place.
2. Mark the stud spacing (16" on center) on the top and bottom plate.
3. Cut your basement wall studs to length and position them in place between the top and bottom plate.
4. Nail the studs to the top and bottom plate using a framing nailer.
5. Lift the wall into place.
6. Secure the bottom plate to the basement floor using tapcon screws.
7. Secure the top plate to the floor joists above using a framing nailer.
