Nowadays a wide range of construction materials allows to satisfy even the most unusual fantasies of repair and decoration.If in the past century, we were limited to a purely rectangular shape, but today we can experiment and create intricate twists and configuration of various materials, such as plasterboard.He is a popular building material from which made the arches and wavy walls, multi-level ceilings, etc.
But bend drywall, knows not everyone.You can, of course, use the arched GCR, but it is more expensive than usual and not so eco-friendly.Therefore, many prefer to perform such work from a simple drywall.Let us consider the options as you can bend the drywall.
for such work sheets used no more than 60 cm wide and perforated profile dimensions 60h27 (ceiling).
methods are flexible drywall
Wet bending.On the side of the sheet of the GCR, which will shrink, punctures made approximately 1.5 cm at intervals of 15 mm.Conventional foam sponge with holes surface is moistened with water.Before you bend the drywall, make sure that it is sufficiently saturated with water and is ready for installation.Thereafter drywall mounted on the frame, and it is folded smoothly preform.Then you need to fix the sheet in such a position and leave to dry for a day.
Dry bending.Suitable in cases where curves are assumed smooth and slight.On the drywall sheets cut grooves desired depth of the U-shaped or V-shaped.The blank is attached to the ready-made curved frame and grooves are sealed with putty.
Before implementing our recommendations in the case, how to bend the drywall, consider the following: if the interior design suggests a plurality of curved forms, it is advisable to be ordered from the manufacturer ready-folded sheets.
technology drywall
for installation work required Perforated profile, screws, pliers, tin snips.When installing frameless necessary comb trowel, water level, the adhesive composition by means of which will be attached GK panels.
The first set of perforated frame profile of markup applied in advance.The construction design takes up most of the time, since it is the basis of all plasterboard work.Depending on what the function of the plasterboard and in which room, its installation can differ.If it's interior walls, ceiling or wall decoration device (NIS), such work provides for mandatory device support structure.
Another example: if you have a task to align the walls with plasterboard, it is sometimes possible to do without long-term construction of the frame.They line the walls in two ways.As mentioned, the mounting structure of the profile - this is the first, the dry method, and the second - gluing sheets of drywall on a special adhesive part.
Since the installation of drywall to the frame of the perforated profile is rather complicated for the beginner, and without the help of a specialist can not do, let us consider the second method of installation.Bonding of plasterboard - the simplest form of installation.I deal with it almost every beginner finisher.There are two ways of gluing drywall.
«Beacon».Wall or self adhesive sheet is applied in small portions at a distance of a few centimeters (5-7) from each other.By applying a sheetrock wall, using a water level arranged its correct location.It is important when installing the slab in the level set.Since the composition of the adhesive to quickly grasp, then it is impossible to dismantle the sheet without damaging it.At the junction of the sheets left a small gap in the event of expansion of the material.This variant of fastening to be applied in cases in which the walls have significant code defects in the form of deep irregularities.
«comb."Apply adhesive cement comb (teeth centimeter) with a spatula on the wall.Evenly spread the glue and glued sheet.Nothing complicated.However, such a method should be selected only when the walls are not noticeable irregularities.
