Here are some more information for Bottom Plate:

If you are planning to finish a basement you will most likely need to install furring strips to the concrete walls so that the walls can be sheetrocked.

Attaching furring strips to concrete walls can be easily done using 2"x2"s or 2"x3" kiln dried wood studs, liquid nail glue, and some fluted concrete nails.

Due to moisture in the basement, I prefer to use a 2"x4" pressure treated stud laid flat along the bottom of the wall. Lay the stud on its flat side up against the wall. The furring strips will sit on top of the pressure treated stud, such that there is effectively a moisture barrier between the basement floor and the kiln dried studs.

The kiln dried studs should be placed on 16 inch centers along the wall, again resting on the pressure treated 2"x4". The kiln dried studs should run the entire height of the concrete wall.

To secure the bottom plate and studs to the wall, I first run a bead of Liquid Nails (designed to adhere to concrete and wood), along the entire length of the bottom plate/stud. If you are using 2"x3"s for the furring strips, the glue should be applied to the wider side, such that when the stud is installed, you effectively have the flat side of the stud attached to the wall.

Start with the application of glue on the pressure treated bottom plate.

Next, using a drill and a masonry bit, drill pilot holes into the bottom plate. The holes should be placed every 16 inches along the length of the plate and should penetrate the concrete walls approximately 1.5". Then using 3" fluted nails and a 3-5 lb sledge hammer, pound the nails into the holes. Note: I prefer to drill and pound a nail, one hole at a time to eliminate alignment problems.

Once the bottom plate has been installed, repeat the process on the vertical kiln dried studs. Install one stud at a time, again on 16 inch centers. Make sure they stand straight and level.

To help hold the vertical stud in place while you are drilling holes and pounding in concrete nails, I like to toe nail the bottom of the stud into the bottom pressure treated plate first.

Once the glue has set up, the furring strips will be strongly fastened to the wall and ready for drywall.

Note, however, you may want to apply pink board insulation in between the studs to provide some level of insulation between the concrete walls and the finished sheetrocked wall. Simply cut the insulation to the proper width, apply some Liquid Nails to the back side of the insulation board, and then press the insulation in-between the studs.

Making your Mark With a Dvla Number Plate

A DVLA Number Plate is a legal requirement for all road vehicles and is used to identify vehicles and aid the Police. The majority of vehicles must display a number plate on the front and rear of the vehicle with motorbikes as an exception. All the information regarding DVLA number plates is held on a central database. The offices of DVLA Swansea act as the headquarters for the agency with over 80 local offices spread across the country.

As you will notice during any journey, the desire to own a DVLA private number plate is growing all the time. A DVLA plate can represent a name or initials or even act as advertising for a company. The most commonly purchased registrations are prefix number plates however the current format of DVLA registration is beginning to catch up with this demand. When the new DVLA registration format was introduced it was feared that there it would create a suitable amount of personalised registrations and was criticised by many. However with a bit of thought it was clear that some classic personalised plates could be found. Love them or loath them, it is undeniable that a DVLA personalised number plate of any format is now one of the must have accessories for today’s motorists.

As each DVLA registration is unique, the race to find your perfect private number plate is on. Once a DVLA number plate is sold to someone else there is little chance of you ever owning it. The good news is that a DVLA number plate can be purchased from a number plate supplier on certificate and held for an unlimited amount of time until assigned to a vehicle. This option has been welcomed by thousands of people who find their ideal number plate but do not have a car to put it on. The certificates are valid for 1 year and can be renewed annually for a nominal charge. If the DVLA number plate that you are looking for has been sold you can contact a number plate dealer as they also act as agents for people looking to sell their registrations and who knows, you might get lucky!

When buying a DVLA car registration from your number plate supplier, you must remember that a vehicle can always be made to appear old but never newer. For instance, a T reg DVLA number plate could go onto a V (1999-2000) registered car as it would make it appear older but it could not be assigned to a S (1998-1999) registered car as it would make it look newer. When in doubt check with you DVLA number plate suppler who will advise on which marks can be assigned to your vehicle.

A DVLA cherished number plate is a term usually used to refer to older, dateless registrations however its use also now refers to most pre-owned registration numbers that are being resold. A dateless registration is a number plate that does not have an age identifier on it however to the trained eye it is possible to narrow when and where the registration was first issued.

If you are looking to purchase a DVLA registration plate, some of the best deals can be found at the DVLA auctions. These auctions are held every few months around the UK and offer people the chance to purchase a previously unreleased DVLA number plate. The auctions are open to anyone and are attended by many number plate dealers, most of whom offer an auction bidding service. Although these are the best places to pick up a cheap number plate, some of the most expensive DVLA registrations have been sold also. The record for this was the registration 51 NGH (Singh) which sold for £254 000 in 2006.
