Wall partitions of gypsum partition of gypsum boards with their own hands

Interior wall partitions, in most cases, are not load-bearing structures. However, they are required to have sufficient strength and good sound insulation properties. In this case, partition the design should easily withstand the in-house communication and hinged furniture.

Today we talk about pazogrebnevyh gypsum (a gypsum) plates (GWP). This material is used to create interior and mezhkvartirnyh partitions. With proper approach to the construction of the partition pazogrebnevyh plasterboards (GWP) will meet the above requirements. But the emphasis should be placed exactly on the right approach!

If you carelessly treat to comply with building technology, the installation of PGP will end in that instead of durable monolith from the builder get shaky and uneven structure, ready to collapse at any moment.

Is a partition in the bathroom of the gypsum partition boards. Apparently, when it makes a hole under the sewer, something went wrong. Now, if it is for the edge to shake his hand, hear the blocks hitting one on the other.

On FORUMHOUSE can find a lot of such examples. And if the partition was originally composed in spite of the existing technology, the defects can be corrected only completely destroying the structure.

But do not be afraid, because the construction technology of wall partitions of a GWP is quite simple. And if you treat it with due care, the impression of the work done is exactly the opposite.

I've worked on a construction site. We reconstructed the old fund. So, all the walls were made from a gypsum gypsum partition boards. As the walls - the most it. Quick and easy to style. Walls are obtained smooth. After the fillings they are ready even for painting, even under the wallpaper. Fastening of the plate keeps well. Noise isolation is also normal. But if anything, can be done crate, put mineral wool and decorate vagonochkoy or panels.

A little about the practicality of GWP

Manufacturers of gypsum boards ensure that this material provides a secure fit standard elements of a modern interior. This means that the walls of the FCL can withstand loads comparable to loads on the walls of the other types of materials. Wall cabinets, appliances, ceilings - all without problems is mounted on the plaster of gypsum partition bulkhead. Thus to extend the functionality of the partition wall GWP can be mounted in its body of metal and plastic water pipes (diameter of not more than 16 mm) and elements of an electrical wiring.

And in GWP door without transoms can be put, electrician without problems lay, shelves and TV hanging reliable.

Choosing a GWP

Standard GWP are of two types: solid and hollow. The design of full-bodied plates is considered more robust, but the material is much heavier than his hollow counterpart. For this reason it is not recommended as a part of partitions mounted on the floor with wooden joists.

With regard to GWP hollow, they provide high acoustic insulation (43 dB) without overloading the floor structure. Some people believe that in the interior of hollow core slabs can live and multiply intensively various insect pests. But a serious confirmation of this opinion have not yet been found.

Conventional (solid and hollow) GWP used to create partitions or wall cladding smokers with dry and normal humidity level. If the partition plan to put in a room with high humidity, the preference should be given moisture-resistant plates, having a kind of a greenish hue. At the same time, keep in mind that these GWP is a bit heavier than regular full-bodied product.

Preparatory work

List of tools to work with cam boards:

• a cord
• Hacksaw with a wide blade and a large tooth
• roulette
• putty knife
• Drill with a nozzle for mixing mixtures
• bucket
• building level and plumb
• Rubber mallet
• elbow
• Cordless

In accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer, the length of the partition wall GWP should not exceed 6 m. The maximum height structure is 3.5 m. The increase in these parameters is possible, but the maximum strength of the partition is provided only under specified dimensions.

The base wall from beneath GWP should be smooth, stable and completely free of dust. If the floor is concrete, and it has swings, exceeding 3 mm, before beginning installation, you must create a leveling layer. For this fit mortar based on sand and cement (solution mark - not below M50).

The solution was applied to the clean humidified floor. For a perfect surface, you can create a kind of formwork and pour her a clear solution at the horizontal level. After complete drying of the base to be coated a primer for concrete.

If it is possible to do without the alignment layer, the substrate for future partition and abut the space partition walls enclosing a layer 2 are covered by a primer.

If the partition is mounted on the timber floor, the base should enhance durable flat bar.

According to the technology plaster gypsum partition panels require a smooth base - a separate tie or neprogibayuschiysya timber under the partition.

When the base is ready, you can mark the location of walls and doorways. This is done by lacing, plumb and level.

Mounting GWP can be performed at a temperature of from -10 to + 30 ° C. In this case the building material should be put in the room in advance. This will help him to "get used" to the temperature and insure partition of deformation (by changing the temperature of the plate can be slightly change its volume).

Mounting the elastic pad

To changes in temperature and strain of bearing elements of the building over time did not lead to the destruction of partition structure of GWP be insulated from the base and surrounding walls special elastic (Damper) tape. Damper gasket protects the wall from mechanical damage and increases sound-proof partition quality. The elastic tape is a special suberic substrate (width not less than 75 mm), which is attached to the base and walls made in accordance with the markings. Plate and strip are fixed to the same mounting adhesive.

Supplies intended for the implementation of the construction works (mortar, spacers, dowels, suspensions and so on. D.), Should be selected on the basis of the recommendations of the manufacturer GWP. At low temperatures assembling GWP is manufactured using cold-resistant adhesive plaster mixture.

Glue with a spatula a thin layer is applied to the prepared surface. The tape is rolled out from the top and gently pressed his hands. Glue is grasped for one hour. After this period, you can begin to build walls.

installation of GWP

First row GWP is placed on the mounting adhesive layer deposited over the damper gasket. The plate can be positioned up slot or groove down - it does not matter. But if the groove is at the bottom of the ridge does not have to saw off that stove has become smooth. The top row of plates may be installed vertically (when the need arises, due to the material saving).

During the laying of the first row of vertical glue greased plate and groove subfloor. Particular attention should be paid to compliance with vertical and horizontal levels. Upsetting the plate should be using a mallet.

The thickness of vertical and horizontal joints should not exceed 2 mm. After another plate is installed in its place, with a spatula, remove excess glue on her joints.

Additional elements to fill the interstices between the one-piece plates, walls and openings are cut out easily GWP with a hacksaw.

The relative displacement of vertical joints in the brickwork must be at least 10 cm. This is a prerequisite for providing structural strength.

At the intersection of two walls and in the corners, plates should be stacked so that their joints overlap. Thus pazogrebnevye elements that prevent the creation of the correct ligation, should be cut with a hacksaw.

After the partition is ready, it is necessary to reinforce the corners of the outer perforated metal profile and putty.

Inside corners are glued serpyanku and are coated with putty.

partition mount to the wall

Durability walls abut against the walls and bottom by installing additional elements: fixing brackets, fixtures or suspensions. More convenient to use mounting brackets or hangers. After all, to the plate they are fastened by means of ordinary screws, and the walls - with dowels. To the side walls, typically attached plate of the 1st, 3rd and 5th rows (often possible, but should be at least three fasteners). As for the base, there is a strong abutment is created for each of the second plate.

Direct suspensions during assembly time can be set directly in the plate recess previously cut them to the desired dimensions.

In the top row of masonry and ceiling of the room you need to leave the technological gap of at least 1.5 cm. It should zapenit with foam. After drying, the excess foam must be cut and seam - putty. Between the upper row and overlapping the additional fasteners installed with the same frequency as the bottom.

Creating doorways

To create a window or door apertures, the width of which does not exceed 90 cm, can be made without laying additional reinforcement. In this case, above the opening is mounted the auxiliary construction of timber, which is removed after the plates are stacked the top row, and mounting adhesive sets.

If the opening width exceeds 90 cm, it is necessary to install a wooden or metal bridge over it. The ends of the bridge must extend beyond the opening of 50 cm on each side. This will ensure a uniform load distribution on the partition.

Door (window) box attached to the wall frame via dowels and foam.

Separation walls of the GWP

Separation walls of the GWP, in contrast to the interior walls are made double. When this process is left between the slabs gap of 4 cm. Initially erected a partition, then - the second. In order to enhance sound insulation, the space between the plates is filled with sound insulating material such as mineral wool.

installation of communications

Design of partitions of a GWP allows you to mount the hidden wiring type. Gypsum boards are durable enough to them prodelyvat vertical Stroebe and have sufficient thickness to establish boxes. In this process the hollow cavities within the GWP can be used as horizontal cutting grooves.

If a channel is selected for routing wires to extend the crown diameter of 45 mm, the cable will pass through it without difficulty. The main thing - during the installation works to score an adhesive side opening plate.

In order to wire it easier to pass through horizontal channels in the side surface of the partition can prodelyvat non-through mounting holes.

Some question the safety of vertical shtrobleniya a gypsum wall. But, according to the manufacturer (and the builders themselves), have nothing to fear.

Roaroma (User FORUMHOUSE):

Why not approach shtroblenie? 7 - an exemplary thickness. I personally Stroebe and put the socket. Until now, all worth it.

Yura52 (User FORUMHOUSE):

I am a long drill bit to drill a hole completely through the plate (to the socket). In the next series of pointed, where he held the wire, and also bored, trying to keep all the holes are aligned. Horizontal openings in the plate is already there, they easily pass the wire. Put plates to vertical drilled hole and with a steel wire to extend a wire outlet.

Likewise, inside walls of GWP can be run plastic pipes to an outside diameter of 16 mm.

The distance between the cutting grooves to be at least 10 cm, and the depth of embedding of pipes - not less than 1 cm (this is true both for the electrical cables and pipes for water).

Stroebe and technological holes made in the wall, after the completion of the work can be easily repaired mounting solution.

Fasteners for attachments

Mounted furniture is attached to a gypsum partition with universal plastic dowels. The main difference between universal dowels is that when released into the cavity they are able to curl up, providing reliable fastening even at high bearing loads.

For fixing heavy plumbing should use universal plastic dowels and screws, studs. If the double partition, then the best option for fixing the plumbing - it springing through dowels.

Also suitable for heavy construction chemical anchors.

Preparation for wallpapering

Preparing walls for wallpapering reduced to mopping joints and priming. If the wall during assembly formed risks or scratches before applying the primer should be repaired filler.
