I have several jobs coming up that will need a fair amount of stud

Virtually no one in the trade uses wood for studding now, it is all steel
framing.
Generally much quicker to put up, and the price isnt much diffrent too,
with the bonus of no warped wood. You still need a but of wood around
door frames for extras rigidity/support.
Save yourself on the nailer and go steel.

Not sure I would build the garden room with steel and the house down the
road was built with timber so probably need something for timber anyway.
