Drywall dimensions, Suspended ceiling and Wall cladding
It is a material produced in standard sizes, with cardboard coating on both sides and plaster in the middle, which is in the gypsum board construction sector. This material, which is produced in the form of plates, is evaluated in many parts of the buildings. It is a material that provides visuality as a general purpose and does not have a carrier feature. Suspended ceiling and partition wall applications are mostly made with gypsum board. Drywall does not produce bacteria and is a fire resistant material. It can be easily cut into desired dimensions, thus making it suitable for its intended use. Since its thickness is not too much, it does not take up space during the partition wall application. During the construction of the partition wall, it definitely requires insulation. Since it is a flexible material, it does not damage people by bursting during an earthquake.
Drywall standard thicknesses are 9.5, 12.5, 15 mm; Drywall standard lengths 2500, 2600, 2700, 2800, 2900, 3000 mm; Drywall standard width: 1200 mm; Drywall standard weight: It is produced as 7-8 kg/m2. The labor cost is low due to the fact that drywall is very easy to assemble and disassemble.
How to make a plasterboard suspended ceiling
First of all, how much to fall from the ceiling is determined by measuring with a laser scale or a spirit level. After the corners of the ceiling are turned with the U profile, the profiles are thrown from the middle parts of the ceiling with the C profile as a support. The material named Ceiling U acts as a frame. Dowels are inserted at 50 cm intervals and the frame is screwed. Do not forget to clip the ceiling C profiles from the middle joints. You should fix the profiles to the ceiling with the help of steel dowels with carriers. If you are using a 7 gauge drill bit, the dowels must be 8 gauge. Because this method is necessary for it to be stronger by compressing and for the plasterboard ceiling not to fall in the future. It is important that the supports are adjusted to fit the length of the drywall. After all these processes, you can start the plasterboard placement process. In places that require fine workmanship, make sure to have the application done by the masters.
