As long as you use a decent quality adhesive and cut the studs tight to fit it's fine for interior walls. Exterior walls that's covering the foundation will have a footer underneath the slab like the posts do. Treated lumber on the bottom plate will decrease in size as it drys out so if it ain't tight it ain't right!!!!

Ya this is what I was thinking nice and snug/tight fit then PL premium the bottom plate. Would you still run treated on the floor ? It won’t be penetrated and currently has a sealer on it

Scarify the concrete with at least one stripe by a diamond wheel in an angle grinder. If sealed, the PL will just glue plate to the film of sealer. Try to find treated fir- just for the plate. In AB it will be mostly hemlock.
