Abstract:
A vertical wall framing stud defines a vertical exterior-facing surface, a vertical interior-facing surface opposite the vertical exterior-facing surface and a long vertical side surface spanning between the vertical exterior-facing surface and the vertical interior-facing surface. A plurality of vertically spaced-apart cutouts can be defined into the vertical wall framing stud along the vertical exterior-facing surface. A ridge can be defined between an adjacent pair of the vertically spaced-apart cutouts. The ridge can include an exterior-facing planar surface that is vertically oriented. An exterior wall board can be fastened to the vertical exterior-facing surface of the vertical wall framing stud. An air gap is formed between each cutout and the inside-facing surface of the wall board. The air gap lowers the thermal bridging effect that occurs due to the framing stud being in contact with the exterior wall board.

Claim (Index 3):
The vertical wall framing stud of  claim 1 , wherein a series of vertically-elongated apertures are defined horizontally into and through the elongated singular body.
