furring strip. n. (Building) a strip of wood or metal fixed to a wall, floor, or ceiling to provide a surface for the fixing of plasterboard, floorboards, etc. Sometimes shortened to: furring.
Material cost is another important consideration. Since furring strips can be cut from larger boards, you use fewer boards to install furring strips, translating into about half the cost of stud wall framing. However, what you save with furring strips is balanced by the cost of insulation. Given the price of a double layer of expanded polystyrene foam insulation -- a total R-value of about 8 -- or R-13 fiberglass, the foam insulation costs more.
