GypWall

Fix the appropriate Vinh Tuong V-Wall U tracks to the floor and soffit. Fix the V-Wall C Studs to the abutments, then to the U tracks at both the head and base, at the required centres.

Fix the studs so as to face the same direction. Apply Hilti sealant CP 606 to the frame perimeters to provide optimum acoustical and fire performance.

Construct door openings to suit the width of the door. Extra studs should be provided at the openings and corners. Overboard the opening and then cut it out to avoid the joint being directly in line with the doorjambs.

Mechanical and Electrical services can be located within the partition cavity to which insulation is added to increase acoustic performance. All are normally installed after one side is boarded.

To obtain optimum acoustic and fire performance, air tightness is essential. Board compensation and an insulation material need to be installed at the back of the socket boxes. Use appropriate non-combustible material for electric conduits and sockets or other installations by mechanical and electrical contractor.

Fix Gyproc plasterboards to a metal framework using VT Drywall Screws. For single and double layer systems, the vertical joints must be staggered and for double layer, the horizontal joints must be staggered. Horizontal board joints should be backed with a VT Flat Strap.

Seal any gaps up to 5mm (as a maximum) at the head and up to 10mm (as a maximum) at the base of the lining with Gyp-Filler Jointing Compound.
