What to do if living in the apartment is quite large, there was a need to divide the room into two or more parts. Often this happens in large families with an increase in the age of children, when they need to have a personal space and feel their independence. And sometimes, I just want to change the disgusting interior, change something, repaint or rearrange.
To install a brick wall, a brick, cement, sand and hard physical work will be required. A lot of garbage and noise will certainly cause dissatisfaction with the neighbors living on the lower floor, and an additional load from the weight of a brick piece can lead to the deflection of the floor slabs.
A very cheap, convenient and simple way out that does not require large energy costs is the installation of dividing partitions from ordinary drywall. The installation of such a not difficult, easily built and easily tolerated wall excludes all the problems that arise during the construction of the brick partition.
Partitions made of drywall
It is necessary to start by marking the future partition and, not on the floor, but on the ceiling. Then, with the help of a plumb line, the line is leveled from the ceiling to the floor and with dowels every 40 cm on the resulting lines, pre -prepared guide profiles are fixed on the resulting lines. Vertical racks are attached to the guides at a distance of 60 cm from each other along the axes due to the fact that the plasterboard sheet has a width of 120 cm and should be mounted on both sides along the edges and in the middle of screws with a secret head. The docking of two sheets of drywall should occur exactly in the middle of the vertical (table) rack.
It is necessary to provide for the strengthening of places in which it is planned to be a hitch on the installed partition of the shelves, paintings, sconces and t. D. If necessary, the device of the doorway also needs to make an additional strengthening with bars and slopes to give the necessary rigidity of the structure. When pruning drywall, you must be neat and careful since from can break off in an undesirable place. If you need sound – or thermal insulation, then the space between the sheets of drywall can be filled with the corresponding material.
