partition wall
Interior space divider
A partition wall is an interior wall that divides a space into separate areas.
Unlike load-bearing walls, partition walls typically support only their own weight and can often be added or removed without affecting a building's structure: We put up a partition wall to create a home office.
The term appears in construction, architecture, and building codes.
