I need to fasten a wall to a perpendicular wall at the ends but dont have enough room
Ok, I messed up. I had a stud at end of 16 oc layout land like 3″ before the end of wall stud.
So I just stacked 3 studs together instead of leaving the gap. Problem is, I also sheathed it and stuff before I nailed the wall vertically to the other wall. So my problem is I need to get through like 4 studs to get to the end stud of the other wall. Can I use like structural truss screw as a substitute for nails for this eff up? Or any other ideas?

Thanks man.
That combination of lumber isn’t doing anything good for keeping the cold out.
I’d take it apart and remove what doesn’t belong.
That's true if it's an exterior wall.
But if it's an internal partition, what does it matter?
Well, the way I read it its “sheathed”, hence maybe a chance it’s an exterior wall?
