Hi,

I was wondering whether gas pipes can be run behind plasterboard
studding? I know that gas pipes penetrating a cavity wall need to be
sleeved, with one end vented, but am not aware of such a requirement for use
within studding. Of course the consequences of a gas leak there are not so
severe - a gas leak into a cavity wall could be disastrous, whereas a gas
leak into a studding wall would not cause stuctural collapse ( if ignited ),
but I thought I'd ask about any regs/best practise,

cheers,

Andy.
