A detailed description of the size and profile of the types of plasterboard , indicative prices

Before facing any leaf surfaces, tiled or plasterboard panels in most cases mounted supporting structure (frame) of the profiles, which has another name - the crate.Traditionally, it was erected from wooden slats pretreated spetssostavami.Complexities such work is not, but the use of wood has significant drawbacks - the whole "assembly" is characterized by a significant weight, which creates an additional burden, and relatively low operating period, as the material is susceptible to rotting.

Metal profiles, which offers a modern market, these "cons" are not allowed.But before you build it from crate, you need to understand the characteristics of these products.The main mistake many individual developers, who prefer to perform all the work yourself, is what they think - the whole profile for drywall is the same, only the right necessary for the length of their "crop", is located on the surface and seal.But this is not true.

types Metalloprofil

products are classified depending on what function they perform.Their difference - in the cross section and configuration.Typically, the thickness of the metal strips and the same length - 0.5 m and 3 mm, respectively.Incidentally, all numerical values ​​are hereinafter referred to just "mm".

However, we must take into account such a moment - not all manufacturers adhere to the metal sheets of standard sizes.For example, for a thickness deviation may be ± 0,1 mm and the length can be up to 6 m. The largest deviation parameters in either direction different products of small producers.Therefore, the above data - only the most common, but they can be used to navigate the range of products.

In addition, the dimensions of the profiles are selected based on the specifics of the installation - finished surface area, the size (and thickness) of sheets of drywall and so on.Therefore, it makes sense to specify only the values ​​that characterize the product used for the construction of crates before finishing premises.

guide profile (CD / UW)

It is used as a basis for the construction of the frame.For example, when constructing walls.all other elements are attached to it.Mounted on the perimeter of a finished surface.

40 x (50, 75, 100).There is a standard called "Finnish" - 30 x (60, 42).

Price - from 116 to 140 rubles / pcs.

guide ceiling (PNP / UD)

name itself suggests, to be installed on any surface it is intended.

27 x 28 and 17 x 20

Price 59 and 38 rubles / piece.

Rack (PS / CW) wall

is an element, which is fixed on a sheet of drywall (its dimensions are described here).It is connected to the guide profile, and they form a supporting structure.

x 50 (50, 75, 100)

price - from 99 to 182 rubles / pcs.

Ceiling (GD / CD)

Performs the same function as the rack, but different manner on the basis of fixation (use a special type of fasteners).

27 x 60 and 17 x 47

Price - 84 and 63 rubles / piece.

Additional types

Beacon (TM)

This type of profile is set for surfacing.For example, prior to plastering, finishing materials, which are glued to the base.

x 22 (6, 10);23 x 10

price - from 20 to 45 rubles / piece.

Corner (PU)

used after installation of drywall when it is necessary to align the edges, make them more aesthetic appearance.

35 x 35, 25 x 25

Price - from 32 to 36 and from 21 to 49 rubles / piece.respectively.

Practical recommendations

In some cases, you can not mount the supporting frame:

• if differences in height on the surface of a minor and have the opportunity to fix it by gluing drywall.
• when the "weighting" after installing metal sheets is unacceptable or undesirable.The weight of the rack (depending on settings) can be an average of 400 to 950

Such bases defect as unevenness in some areas can be repaired with spackling compounds - read about it here.

In practice, the width of the designated manufacturer of metal sheets and a real differ.The difference of the order of 1.5 mm, and this must be taken into account.
