The goal here is to space your studs so that you don’t bust holes through the plywood as you roll across. This is not a heavy impact zone, so you can get away with a wider gap between studs than on the transitions. I plan on using ½” thick plywood on the flat, so 12” spacing or less should be plenty. In order to keep things symmetrical the studs will be placed 11-7/8”, center to center.
