In general, studfull constructions are bigger and heavier
than studless ones, with a less dense internal structure. They
often need to be reinforced, but the resulting structures are
very rigid. They are also orientation dependent because of
their asymmetry, meaning that the direction their studs face
affects the number of possible combinations between pieces.
Additionally, studfull constructions don’t work as well
with vertical elements; for example, vertical axles are difficult to secure firmly in studfull structures.
