Technical Guidance for Jumbo Stud Partition Systems
Jumbo Stud Partitions provide high-performance internal partition systems designed for use in large-scale industrial and commercial buildings. This page provides technical guidance for architects to support system selection, coordination and specification.
Detailed system datasheets and performance documents will be made available separately.
System Overview
Our partition systems are engineered to address the limitations of standard internal wall constructions, particularly where height, fire resistance or acoustic performance exceed typical thresholds.
System categories include:
Jumbo stud partition systems
Fire-rated partition systems
Composite panel fire-rated partitions
Acoustic and sound-reducing partition systems
Each system is designed to support industrial-scale construction, while allowing flexibility in layout and integration.
Design Considerations for Architects
When incorporating Jumbo Stud Partition Systems into a project, the following design factors should be considered:
Required wall height and span
Fire resistance period in accordance with the fire strategy
Acoustic performance requirements
Building use and risk profile
Structural interface conditions
Door, opening and service integration
Early coordination allows the most appropriate system to be selected and reduces the risk of redesign during later stages.
Fire Performance Capability
Partition systems can be configured to provide fire resistance periods ranging from 30 to 240 minutes, depending on system type and construction.
Fire resistance is dependent on:
Full system build-up
Correct detailing at interfaces
Installation in accordance with the project specification
Fire performance requirements should be defined by the appointed fire consultant and incorporated into the architectural design.

Acoustic Performance Capability
Acoustic partition systems are available to provide airborne sound insulation performance up to 72dB, subject to system selection and detailing.
Acoustic performance should be considered alongside:
Adjacent space usage
Door and opening requirements
Interface detailing
Site installation quality
System selection should be coordinated with the appointed acoustic consultant where applicable.

Wall Height & Structural Considerations
Jumbo Stud Partition Systems are designed to accommodate significant wall heights in large industrial buildings.
Indicative maximum heights include:
Jumbo stud systems – up to 15 metres
Composite panel systems – up to 30 metres
Acoustic systems – up to 26 metres
Final achievable height is dependent on system configuration, building conditions and interface detailing.
Interfaces, Openings & Coordination
Architectural detailing should allow for:
Junctions with floors, soffits and structural elements
Door and opening integration
Service penetrations and interfaces
Fire stopping and acoustic sealing
Coordination with structural, M&E and fire disciplines is essential to maintain system performance.
Specification Support
We can provide support to architects during the specification process, including:
System guidance and suitability advice
Performance summaries for tender documents
Clarification of system capabilities
Project-specific technical input
Formal datasheets and detailed performance documentation will be provided separately.
RIBA Work Stages Support
Our systems can be supported across:
Stage 2–3: Concept design and system feasibility
Stage 4: Technical design and specification coordination
Early engagement helps ensure compliance with fire, acoustic and structural requirements.
Technical Enquiries
