Sometimes such a period occurs in a person’s life, when you want to change something. Someone changes work, someone’s image, and someone decides to change the apartment. And not just for cosmetic repairs, but for radical changes. Let it be not always possible to demolish the wall in the apartment or install a fireplace, but there is one tool with which you can significantly change the appearance of the room, creating a unique interior. This, of course, is the use of drywall partitions.
To date, drywall partitions are the simplest, fastest and advantageous way to organize living space. These partitions can be installed on a wooden or metal frame. The popularity of this material is explained by many advantages, including:
– environmental friendliness;
– refractory;
– high gas and vapor permeability;
– simplicity and high installation production;
– Installation is possible on absolutely any objects.
Due to the high flexibility that drywall has, you can create partitions of any form. And the flat surface of this material makes it possible to implement various design solutions. The plasterboard structure can be covered with wallpaper, laying tiles on it, covered with textured plaster or painted with paint. In addition, in such designs, you can make decorative niches or shelves, which will give the space of lightness, as well as visually expanding it.
The installation of drywall partitions is not difficult. This is possible even a simple layman.
He passes in three stages:
Installation of the frame. This work should be performed at a temperature of 15 degrees and in conditions of humidity normality. As a rule, installation is made after the installation of plumbing and electrical systems is performed. To install the frame, first you need to mark the position of the partition on the floor. Then you need to move the marking to the ceiling with a plumb line. Further, using nails or dowels, the structure is mounted. The wiring is laid inside the frame, and holes are prepared for switches and sockets. Then the main components of the fasteners are fixed in order to place the equipment on the partition. Sheets of drywall are installed on one side of the frame (step 25 cm.). If the project provides a doorway, then it is bordered by additional racks and horizontal jumpers.
Installation of insulation. After the frame is installed, one of the parties to the partition is lined with drywall, after which sound and thermal insulation is installed. Good insulation in this case will be mineral wool and foamed materials.
Facing. This stage involves fastening the second sheet of drywall. This is done using screws. If the sheets are installed in two layers, then the second should be shifted by about 60 cm. After that, the joints between the sheets, as well as the screws of the screws, need to be thrown and primed. And only after completing all stages of work, you can proceed to the decorative decoration of the partition.
