Default attaching framing studs to poured concrete

Hah!

Just as I thought -

What do you think about just using liquid nails to attach it to the floor
(without nailing)? This wall is just around the mechanical room, not load
bearing or anything, and not prone to abuse. Guess I just ought to arrange
use of the hilti gun and do it right though....

Any suggestions on how to attach framing studs into a poured concrete
floor?(specifically a horizontal 2x4, used to attach vertical 2x4 framed
wall at the floor)

I don't think masonry nails will work here, and I don't have a Hilti gun

at
my immediate disposal. Not to be picky, but I don't really want to drill
anchors in either. ...

Thanks,
Keith



Well you've ruled out the top three means to attach a wood stud to
concrete.
What do you prefer; Elmers glue or Velcro?
