most expensive plasterboard - it is waterproof, so it is used for lining the walls in the main bathrooms.The most used type of material - wall.

Its dimensions are sufficient to ensure the stability and reliability of the surface.Typically, it is a standard thickness - 10 mm, but the model can be found, whose dimensions reach up to 12 mm.

third type of drywall - a ceiling - is used as the name implies, for facing the ceiling.

Its size is the smallest that has a minimum load on the ceiling, and it is processed by special structure, which makes it impossible to use other types of finishes.

distance through which the need to produce fixing plasterboard sheets to profile varies depending on the type of drywall.

strength of the sheet material depends on the distance between his legs: the smaller it is, the stronger will be the sheet.

In some cases, you can just pokleit drywall, but more often the distance is still insufficient and metal profiles must be used to stabilize the structure.

Distance Wizard Profile of plasterboard must comply with building regulations, which involve the following specific values.

For wall strips of material must be observed in the length of 40 cm, water-resistant - the length of 60, and the ceiling is necessary to collect the profiles of each other in a grid cell size of which must be 40x40 cm

properly secure the support -. It is half the battle.It is also necessary to pinpoint the holes where the screws will be screwed.

distance must be correct because if the screws are set too frequently, the integrity of the cloth broken, and if it is too rare, it crumble and fall.

small number of fasteners will cause the same problem.The length between the screws should be at least 20 cm apart from the departure from the edges of at least half a centimeter, or sheets raskroshatsya.

There are two types of screws that are used for installation of drywall: fasteners for metal sheets and plasterboard.

Metalloprofilnye screws are divided into wood and metal and all metal.

metal-metal screws needed to secure together two profiles.They are equipped with a drill mounted on the end of the part, which ensures a tight fastening elements.

Screws made of wood and metal is required for the connection profile to the structure of the tree.At this end of the screw sharp, able to cut through metal and firmly fixed in the tree.

Such parts are usually made of galvanized steel, which is strong enough.

There are many types of screws for drywall, but it is better to use any of the two types, then the mount is durable and reliable, and the profile for gypsum board will serve you for a long time.

outer part of the drywall may be white or green in color and must be placed "face" to the room.

Installation material

Before joining the metal section of drywall with the material necessary to make a drawing and a plan to correct the installation took place and details of tightly joined to each other.

To do this, you need to determine the size of future construction, and on that basis to draw a plan.

If you plan only to install drywall on the walls, the plan is necessary to draw the frame, which will hold the material.

framework should comprise four supporting strips located at each corner of the structure.

To frame was stable, it is necessary to closely monitor the distance between the strips was the same, and that they are not located in the most edges of drywall, otherwise the material will be damaged.

placement strips, keeping the correct distance is probably the most time-consuming to perform with his own hands the process, the rest of the work will be easier.

If you make a shelf or other structure made of plasterboard, the frame should be reflected in the plan, but with it the image of the most future construction - so you will see how it fits into the room and whether you need to adjust the sizes.

Once the drawing is ready, you can assemble the frame, as well as make its installation on the wall.The whole process of how to put together a profile for drywall material with your hands, you can trace the video.

Collect frame begins with installation guides - so called a guide profile, similar to the letter "P".

It captures the top and bottom of the walls, the ceiling or mounted on the perimeter, if you are finished with gypsum plasterboard that surface.

guide profile is needed not only to show the vector on which are mounted supporting profiles, as well as it serves as a beacon.

most important thing - to establish guiding profile exactly.If the walls of the gap and the gap profile has turned out, that it should be closed with a cardboard or wood, depending on the size of it.

To fix the guide profile, use dowels, they are placed at a distance of 30 cm from each other.

After installation is complete, you can make the frame assembly in the starting profile on the wall, observing the value of the drawing.

Construction profile for plasterboard connected to the material by means of screws.

You will need high-quality electric screwdriver, work best on medium rotation mode, and screwing a screw press in - then it will go into the material from the first time.

Then fix the level of cross screws and crimp sheet perimeter.Now you can fasten it to the carrying strap, sequentially moving from one to the other.

All fixing screws are made.Gradual transition to the straps provide a secure fit and maximum preservation of the desired level of accommodation.

Ceiling profile for gypsum board attached similar to mount the walls, but all work together to perform better, becauseat the same time to keep the profile of the ceiling, and attach it with their own hands will not work, and if the material is cut, it will look ugly.
