Solution and method

The drywall construction system comprises two components: construction of walls and ceilings from plasterboards and drywall screeds. The drywall system reduces the duration of execution in terms of time, because there is no construction moisture and waiting periods are eliminated. Drywall construction using plasterboards is simple and environmentally friendly, which is why an increasing number of people are opting for this type of construction.

This type of construction is already well developed and established in our country, both in adaptations and new builds. It involves the construction of suspended ceilings, partition walls, various claddings, decorative ceiling designs, etc. A ceiling made from plasterboards (e.g.

Knauf) is particularly suitable for constructing ceilings in attic spaces or when renovating old spaces. Before this type of construction, all construction phases up to installations must be completed, which can be installed subsequently or just before the final assembly of boards (electrical installation, air conditioning, etc.). The assembly of plasterboards appears relatively simple at first glance, but it is not entirely so.

Drywall construction involves construction of a metal structure, which must follow a precisely determined measuring sequence, level or sloped. This is followed by ** installation of mineral wool insulation**, the minimum installation thickness of which requires approximately 15 cm. The function of mineral wool is good thermal and acoustic insulation.

The next phase is mounting plasterboards in sequence according to the constructed structure. The final phase of this construction is treatment of plasterboard joints, which includes installation of aluminium corner beads, taping and smoothing of plasterboard joints.
