2X4's makes it easier with window framing as most is setup for 2x4's. windows is the biggest cost and preordering windows to fit a 2x6 can add up
Actually not. It all depends on wether the window is supplied with a liner, or the liner is field constructed. And if the liner is field constructed, is it made of wood, MDF or GWB? Regardless, jam extensions are readily available.
In many areas of siesmic activity, we are finding it easier to make walls which contain DWV plumbing out of nominal 6" material because of the amount of strapping and sistering that is needed when 1 1/2" and 2" DWV pipes are ran thru plates and studs.
