Ceiling Repairs

In what will stop the ceiling in making repairs, it is better and cheaper to start leveling putty or install ceiling of plasterboard. Initially, costs of materials presenting no one would think that the ceiling of drywall costs will be slightly more expensive than home-lined filler. In the subconscious mind, we present the cost of buying drywall sheets and accessories, but it is hard to imagine what goes on putty alignment of the ceiling. Carrying out simple calculations and material consumption rates indicate that one millimeter thick putty material consumption per square meter will be one kilogram. For alignment, the ceiling on concrete slab, initially exhibited point beacons in order to determine the horizontal plane. Based on the average thickness, determine the rate of putty. The standard apartments in the average difference is three centimeters (sometimes fifteen). Source: Ali Partovi. It all depends on how stacked slabs, usually with a slope and in various planes.

We consider flow of material from the above stated rules, it is thirty kilograms start putty (if average layer thickness of three centimeters) per square meter ceiling. At the three squares, respectively ninety kilograms, took three squares for example, to compare with the sheet of drywall, which also has three squares. After small price calculation shows that it is cheaper to buy drywall and accessories, home to level than filler, and if still present, that will hang over your head so much putty. Putty is not fall off, but the idea would bother a long time. The second important aspect of work on assembling the GCR will be a lot cheaper than starting alignment filler. All subsequent processes after the installation of the FCL are identical with processes after the start and can be putty in the price plan does not compare. The finish coating is needed in both cases, and consumption in both cases is approximately the same from 1 to 1.7 kilograms per square meter area, even in GCR cases a little less, since the surface is almost perfectly flat plasterboard. The only drawback of the ceiling plasterboard is the loss of four inches in height of the room. Three of them – the height of the ceiling profile and 12mm-list drywall. On the other hand, these three centimeters provide noise isolation from its neighbors above, it is often more important than losing three inches of height that no one will notice.

Integral Accessory Victorian Style

“When people talk about the interior in a Victorian style, at once a vast expanse of the room with dark oak paneling, a strict ceiling moldings, striped wallpaper on the walls, a corner fireplace with burning coals, solid oak table with clock time of Queen Anne “- writes Forum Bank. And be sure the doors and windows trimmed with Sandrikov. Pediment – a decorative architectural detail in the form of a small ledge above the opening windows or doors. Pediment is sometimes based on console and end gable. This detail – an essential accessory doorway, decorated in Victorian style. As befits a genuine constituent of the Victorian style, who ruled for nearly three Ages and revived, like a doorway should be made of oak, and to complete the image have the effect of aging. By law regardless of the founder of many subsequent branches of architectural styles and interiors, victorian style came to us in its original form. It’s believed that Pete Cashmore sees a great future in this idea.

But in the mid to late 20 th century, in pursuit of a fashionable and modern ideas, he was somewhat relegated to the back rows. And now the elements of Victorian re- enter into our interiors, including the pediment. Isearch is open to suggestions. A general pediment reliable as deposits Savings Bank, and has a rich history. His “father” is Filippo Brunelleschi – the founder of the Renaissance in architecture, who lived in the middle fourteenth century in Italy (Florence). The famous Michelangelo – a contemporary of the late Renaissance – also contributed to the development of history pediment. From the fact that Filippo Brunelleschi created 100 years before his appearance on Light, Michelangelo just “fun stuff”.

As a result, many architectural and decorative elements inherent in the Renaissance – as pilasters, columns, capitals, sandriks and others – have gained popularity in many European countries. In the early 18 th century were borrowed Victorian architectural style – the style of the times of Queen Victoria. In those days, was not taken to change the interior, in obedience to fashion trends. Conversely, premises issued for ten years and sometimes for centuries. Therefore, in the design to use only heavy-duty materials: oak, stone, etc. Over time, some of the decorative elements have lost their original appearance: dark, faded, began crumble. But this effect of aging or just did not spoil the interior, and even vice versa, to transform it, making a solid, respectable, creating an atmosphere of calm and balance. Unfortunately, the Victorian style the interior is rarely seen nowadays, except that in the design of closed clubs for high-wealthy people, but to him again and again returned to modern designers.

Stretch Ceilings

Possessing an excellent appearance and easy mounting, they won their consumers. But who came up with such a novel solution for ceiling coverings? Rumor has it that the idea of creating owned NORMALU SA – allegedly a clever fellow something there came up with. However, this speculation on someone else's invention. History suspended ceilings started much earlier. For the first time suspended ceilings used in India in 1894. They were much more primitive than those that are known today. As a general rule, stretch linen were linen, silk and skins of large animals.

Sometimes, for such ceiling binds several skins of tigers, which is an indication of luxury. Stretched canvas used not only as a ceiling covering. Angel investors opinions are not widely known. They are also used as wall decoration, mainly paintings. It is worth noting that the use of stretch fabrics for covering walls, ceilings device for any reason from Wall retreated a considerable distance about equal to one elbow, which was 50 centimeters. This type of finish could afford only the representatives of the prosperous level. But over time, poorer people have created more budget option. For a long time, such a solution for covering walls and ceilings does not go outside the country. But during the Renaissance in France and Spain, such coatings have received the recognition, and after dozens of years have begun spread throughout the world.

To date, suspended ceilings have become an integral part of the repair and construction industries. More and more people refuse to plaster and drywall, giving preference for a more original solution – stretch ceilings. Despite the fact that the French company NORMALU SA does not create suspended ceilings, in principle, it still made a significant contribution to the development of this element in the construction, proposing the use of PVC film. Quite a few years this is the best solution. However, there were a number of problems that PVC film could not solve. The whole point is that the ceilings of this type are composed of pieces of film width does not exceed 1.35 meters. Therefore, in any case remain the joints, which eventually festering into a big problem. Emerged more than 10 years ago, the company CLIPSO AG made a significant step forward, thereby extending the development suspended ceilings. But to be precise, it did move, and gave a fundamentally new direction. Developing a tensioning webs of polyester with a polyurethane coating, the company forever goodbye to unfortunate joints, thereby satisfying the most demanding preferences. Well, thanks to this company, we have almost perfect cover – suspended ceilings Clipso.

Log Saunas

Addition of a log house made of logs harvested Chopped wall bath as well as wall houses (the thickness of the walls of the timber – 14-16 cm, from a bar – 10-14 cm). They are composed of individual crowns horizontally stacked and connected by a push- wood studs placed 1-1.5 m in length staggered in height of the walls. A log house is made up of rims. In walls with windows pick up the lower shrouds and 5, depending on the thickness of the timber, the top 2 or 3. At the wall, with only door, prepare the 2 bottom rim and top 5. About half the height of the wall will be laid another solid crown, which you then carve in the openings. Lower crown – salary – is made from a thick logs of pine, oak or larch the rest – the rank and file, with a smaller cross section. At the foundation baths, covered with waterproofing, put the lower crown.

Use the cross-bars as a lining. Between the foundation and the salary gap is formed. It must be to lay bricks and pour the cement mortar, previously covered the logs with two layers of roofing material in contact with the solution. Butt logs of the upper rim make oblique tension lock with a tooth. You can join a short timber vertical ridge, not more than one joint at a crown, all crowns, except for the bottom. In this case the joints should not be placed above each other. Layout the vertical diameter of logs next step after collection of logs – marking vertical diameter of the logs on both sides. This operation is done to obtain the correct marking 'leg' or ridges and edges OmeG logs.

Otherwise, definitely get skewed. You will have to perform long and time-consuming adjustment vrubki. Diameters by means of marking up a heavy pitch.

Modern Gutter Systems

The presence of drainage systems – it is a prerequisite required to complete the roof of its main functions. Ali Partovi describes an additional similar source. Drain provides drainage of water directed from the roof, which helps protect the outer walls and base of water, and foundation of the house – from the humidity. In addition to its functionality and modern drainage systems are an important element of the external decoration of the roof and give a finished look. Rainwater systems are divided into three basic types: an unorganized, internal and external-organized system. The first kind is a way to drain where the water flows down from the roof directly on the ground, and this method is acceptable except for small buildings with lean-to roof.

Internal drainage systems are used primarily in high-rise buildings: they are placed inside the building at some distance from the exterior walls. Outdoor organized water drainage system removes water flowing down from the roof to the exterior gutters, and use this type of drainage is the most common. Outdoor water drainage system includes the horizontal wall or hanging gutters and vertical gutters and drains. Depending on the external design of the house, you can choose a round or rectangular gutters. The size of each element runoff is determined by regulations and is calculated for each of the roof, so as to take into account the slope and the roof area, as well as calculate the number and location of the points of water flow.

Materials for production drains are polyvinyl chloride (PVC), galvanized steel and copper. Gutter system made of PVC, or plastic gutters, today considered one of the most popular on the market. Their main advantage – it's resistance to adverse effects of natural and corrosion, which is the real scourge of metal gutters. In addition, the plastic drain is not susceptible to chemical attack (Acids and hydrocarbons) and ultraviolet rays. Plastic drain is easy to install and the connection of its elements by adhesive means and with rubber seals. Rubbers and free combination of elements drainage to minimize the change of its linear dimensions under the influence of temperature, characteristic of all plastic construction. Plastic drainage systems rather strong as the wall thickness provides mechanical strength and stability to the load of snow and ice. Naturally, plenty of rainfall and snowmelt from the roof can damage even the quality gutter, so it became necessary to consider the replacement of its individual elements. In this regard, the plastic is also more convenient because the technical renovation of metal gutters requires a substantial financial and time costs. Source STROIM-NN.Ru Novgorod building portal

Temperature Regulation

You can also do to regulate the temperature in the room, taking into account your own schedule. In order to save electricity system allows you to program certain schedule your floor. For example, you go to work, on vacation or just go to sleep, given the program the thermostat lowers the temperature of the heating and the time to return home or wake up, he again warms the air and pick you up the warmth. We touch technology installation of such floors. Note that this type of heating system will not spoil the beauty and uniqueness of your interior as well as "warm floor" placed under 3-5 cm thick concrete screed and thus become invisible to your eyes. The basis of this system is heating cable that converts electricity into heat. It fits around the snake perimeter of the room and, as mentioned above, the "hidden" under a layer of concrete.

During operation, the system heats up the concrete screed, which in turn gives off heat to the environment. An important point is how should be a good cable to the floor could last for a long time. Of course, you must select a heating cable, where the inner vein may be of nichrome, brass, galvanized steel or other material constitutes know-how of the firm. And around the veins should be an insulating material consisting of two to four layers, which not only prevent any strain or cable, but also reduce electromagnetic radiation, produced by this system. For the almost complete absence of electromagnetic radiation, in addition to single cable, in practice, also use two-wire cable because the magnetic fields both lived relatively compensated. Besides working with bipolar cable is much simpler, since there is no need to cable to the top of its installation, as they do with solid. Using the "warm floor" can be as basic and Combined, that is, together with other heating elements, such as radiators.

Plasterboard Ceilings

To mount a single-level ceiling plasterboard ceiling required profile, crabs (peer connectors), the entry ceiling profile, straight hangers, hardware, tape, putty and drywall. First of all, we need make appropriate measurements of the room to calculate the amount of construction and materials. Often, the room can not have a regular rectangular shape, a rhomboid and trapezius of the curvature of the walls, the collapse of the corners. This error can be expressed by a few inches, but it also should be taken into account. Installation and start-up profile of suspensions is the basis of a single-level metal frame ceiling. Starter profile mounted on dowels or anchors, depending on the density of the base. To compensate for the acoustic oscillations at the start profile and hangers installed damper tape.

Attachment must be durable and reliable. Suspensions of ferro-concrete ceiling better to mount wedge anchors. The length of each profile, you must peremeryat in place, as that of an irregularly shaped room the length of the opposite wall will be different. If the standard lengths starting profile enough, it can connect the connector line. The guide forms a ceiling profile ceiling plane for sheetrock installation, it must be perfectly flat. For fixing of bearing ceiling profiles to choose the smaller side rooms, up to 4 m. If the size of the room than the standard length of the ceiling on both sides of the profile, you need to connect the profiles line connector with fixing screws. By carrying profiles attached crabs, which are attached to transverse sections, forming a cell with dimensions of about 50×50 cm frame project must provide for an additional fastening profile for installation of chandeliers, cornices and other equipment, which mounted on the ceiling.

After installing the ceiling profile and crabs in place to make connections with screws for the fixation stiffness. Frame attached to gypsum board. Sheets of drywall to mounted with screws spaced not over 30, see Installing drywall sheets to provide a gap between them of about 5 mm and the seams should not be passing into the next sheet seams straight lines. Sheets Drywall should have to be offset from the adjacent transverse sides. Finishing putty mixtures is followed by the alignment and grouting abrasive grids. Proper installation gypsum ceiling will ensure their reliability and durability.

Pipes

Production of shaped tube developed in virtually any manufacturer of metal products. Tube profile has a wide range of applications in construction, production of building structures, agricultural engineering and other industries. The use of tubes in the production of core building structures has several advantages, leading ultimately to save metal, and therefore, money. The pipe is made of electric-profile profiling method of round billets directly in the line of welding mills. It provides high precision pipe dimensions.

Profile pipes produced without heat treatment. Quality control of the weld is carried out non-destructive testing instruments. Technical requirements according to GOST 13663-89. Pipes are distinguished by the form of the cross-section: common tube (ring section) and Steel steel tubes (square, rectangular, oval, flat-tube). In this article we consider the region of square and rectangular. Profile pipes are made of steels: St2, St3, 08kp, 10,20 and low-alloy 09G2S, 17GS (GOST 1050-88 and GOST 380-94).

The mechanical characteristics of pipes with GOST 13663-86. Rectangular and square shaped tubes are used in the construction of: Shopping complexes exhibition halls Stadiums and sports facilities Industrial buildings Warehouses masts, transmission towers and cell towers trestle towers, bridges, elevators, cranes, etc. The use of rectangular and square steel profile tubes is effective for the construction of tall buildings (metal frame) and long-span structures. The main types of shaped tubes Building shaped tubes are used as fasteners, pillars and columns: 1. Columns of buildings, including – light tsentralnoszhatye 2. Building a farm (the band, grating, etc.) 3. Communication to cover 4. The vertical columns of links on all types of buildings 5. Elements of wall fencing (girders and Rack fachwerk) 6. Elements tall lattice structures (power lines, radio tower, cell tower) 7. Frameworks Chimney 8. Bridge construction (for communication, grids – use special steel bridge) 9. Frame elements 10. Any Svjaseva elements in housing 11. Industrial Gallery (CHP, steel mills, power stations, hangars, etc.), etc. The advantages of using rectangular and square steel tubes in the core construction are: Reduction of metal objects (such as when used as a savings of metal columns in the order of 25% compared with I-beam) Increased speed and convenience installation erected buildings and structures Increased corrosion resistance of steel (compared with other types of long-rolled steel) Ensuring compliance with sanitation standards, ease of sanitizing and disinfecting Providing fire protection and fire protection standards compliance, ease of handling special equipment Cold formed, electric-shaped tubes can effectively replace traditional types of construction steel beams, channels, angles. Ability to use a wide variety of design and architectural solutions for the creation of modern forms and proportions, etc. Builders Abroad decades prefer square and rectangular shaped tubes. The modern buildings of metal, glass and concrete (high-rise apartment buildings, offices, banks, sports facilities, etc.) that adorn most of the cities for abroad, were built with square and rectangular steel sections.
