Dry Lining & Walling Services
Get In Touch TodayStandard Partitions
Standard partitions may be specified with confidence for non-load bearing partitions and use fast drywall construction techniques. These systems can utilise the entire range of boards, including wallboard, sound shield, fire shield, and dense shield – depending on the performance required.
The boards are fixed onto a lightweight metal stud. C-stud partitions provide the simplest and most economical system, whilst I-stud partitions should be used when a more rigid partition is required
– without increasing the overall thickness.
Domestic & Commercial
Versatile Systems
Minimal Components
Shaft Wall & Firefighting Shaft Wall
Shaft wall & firefighting wall is a versatile system for forming enclosures around service shafts and lift shafts.
* For enclosure of lift or service shafts.
* Up to two hours fire resistance
A fire and moisture resistant inner lining of the coreboard allows the shaft enclosure to be constructed prior to the building being weather sealed.
Shaftwall is used because it is highly durable and is able to withstand the effects of impact and water, to which it would be subjected during a fire, without losing its integrity or fire resistance. This means the fire crews can maintain protected areas to all floors within the buildings.
Metal Furring Linings
Metal furring linings can be used for most masonry backgrounds depending on the condition:
* Where the background is uneven and not suitable for direct bonding.
* Where the backed boards are used for the lining.
* Where insulation in not required within the wall lining void.
* Where only shallow service runs are required to be accommodated within the lining void.
* For a stand-off of 25-35 mm.
The system can be applied to the majority of all common masonry substrates. Pre-treatment of the background may be needed, depending on the background condition and the fixing method adopted.
Any deleterious deposits, such as mould, oil or grease, must be removed.
Wall Liner Linings
Wall liner linings may be specified with confidence for application to most masonry backgrounds depending on the condition.
* Where a variable stand-off clearance is required between lining and background of between 17 and 125 mm.
* Where the background is out true.
* Where insulation is required within the wall lining void.
* Where deep service runs are required to be accommodated within the lining void
These systems can utilise the entire range of boards available depending on the performance requirements. The boards are fixed onto a lightweight metal framework of channels fixed to brackets, then fixed to the background. This makes it capable to override substantial irregularities in the background. The lining void facilitates the introduction of thermal or acoustic insulation and provides containment for service runs. The system can be applied to the majority of all common building substrates.
Independent I-Stud Wall Linings
Independent I-stud wall linings may be used where the background is not suitable to receive other types of lining – Where the wall lining is required to be completely independent of an adjacent wall structure.
* For measured fire resistance
* Where insulation is required within the wall lining void.
* Where substantial service runs and ducts are required to be accommodated within the lining void.
This system can accommodate the entire range of plasterboards depending on the performance required. The boards are fixed onto a lightweight metal framework of I-studs and U-channels.
Direct To Timber Ceilings
Direct to timber ceilings is the method for attaching plasterboard to the underside of the timber floor joists and the roof trusses.
This system is widely used to line new ceilings or existing ceilings and can incorporate any type of plasterboard to maintain the performance required.
MF Ceiling Systems
The MF ceiling system can accept some degree of loading and is the more traditional for of application. This system can utilise one or more layers of the entire range of plasterboards – depending on the performance required.
The boards are fixed onto a lightweight metal framework of primary channels, MF ceiling channels and perimeter channels.
The lightweight galvanised grid is suspended by either strap hangers or angle sections fixed to the structural soffit cleats.
Suspended Ceilings
Suspended ceilings can be installed to the majority of all applications to create personalised ceilings and meet technical requirements such as acoustic, moisture, hygiene and fire.
This system can utilise many different styles, colours and texture of tiles.
* Where access to the ceiling void is required.
* Where an acoustic absorption performance is required.
* Where hygiene is a key criteria.
* Where decorating is possible.
The tiles are placed in a galvanised steel grid system hung from the structural soffit by either wire or angle sections.
Drywall Framed Encasements
Drywall framed encasements are suitable for encasements of columns, beams and other structural steelwork.
Up to two hours fire protection is achievable and it enables the exclusive use of the fire shield boards throughout the building to make direct decoration quick and easy.
Framed encasements utilise fire shields fixed onto a lightweight metal framework of C-channels connected to the structural steelwork with fixing clips.
