METAL STRUCTURE
The Metal Structure is a type of support used in civil construction composed of metal profiles, mainly steel. It is fundamentally formed by iron and carbon, and its strength depends on the amount of carbon used.
DEBRIS REMOVAL
Debris removal is essential to create a safe environment around the structure being worked on, ensuring that items, houses, or vegetation damaged by disasters do not pose a threat to the health and safety of people in the immediate area. This applies to space renovations as well as when damage occurs.
The installation of ceilings with plasterboard panels is a great advantage in commercial settings because it easily covers a metal structure, commonly known as a false ceiling or plasterboard ceiling.
The wooden frame, both literally and figuratively, constitutes the pillar of any construction work. Through the wooden structure, the classic construction system incorporates elements such as trusses, posts, and interwoven beams into the building.
The installation of ceiling panels with gypsum sheets is a significant commercial advantage because it easily covers a metal structure, commonly known as a false ceiling or gypsum panel ceiling.
Gypsum sheets, also referred to as “drywall” or “laminated gypsum board,” consist of a natural mineral gypsum core coated on both sides with cardboard paper. The gypsum core is extracted from natural gypsum deposits in the earth, while the cardboard paper provides durability and protection against moisture and impact. These sheets come in various thicknesses and sizes to suit different construction projects.
Durock sheets, on the other hand, are made from a mixture of Portland cement reinforced with fiberglass and other additives. This blend is compressed into rigid, durable sheets with a smooth and uniform surface, making them ideal for installation and subsequent finishing. Durock sheets are resistant to moisture, mold, and can serve as a sturdy base for ceramic, stone, or brick finishes.
Here are the standard dimensions for Durock sheets:
- 1/4" x 3’ x 5’: The smallest Durock sheet, measuring 1/4 inch thick, 3 feet wide, and 5 feet long.
- 1/2" x 3’ x 5’: A thicker Durock sheet with the same width and length as the 1/4" sheet.
- 5/8" x 3’ x 5’: The most commonly used Durock sheet in construction, also with the same dimensions.
- 5/8" x 4’ x 8’: The largest Durock sheet available, measuring 5/8 inch thick, 4 feet wide, and 8 feet long.
Keep in mind that dimensions may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer and supplier. Custom-cut Durock sheets are also available to fit specific project requirements.
Below is a comparison table highlighting the uses of gypsum sheets (Tabla Yeso) and Durock:
| Aspect | Gypsum Sheets (Tabla Yeso) | Durock |
|---|---|---|
| Advantages | - Economical compared to other construction materials. | - Resistant to moisture and mold. |
| - Easy installation on profiles. | - Suitable for wet areas and outdoor exposure. | |
| - Used for interior walls and false ceilings. | - Provides a sturdy base for ceramic, stone, or brick finishes. |
FLOOR INSTALLATION
The installation of flooring is a crucial step in any construction project. Whether you’re working with ceramic tiles, hardwood, or vinyl, proper installation ensures durability, functionality, and aesthetics. Here are some essential tips for successful floor installation:
Surface Preparation:
- Inspect the surface where you’ll install the flooring. Ensure it is level, free from cracks, and without undulations.
- Clean the surface thoroughly to remove any substances or dust that could interfere with the adhesive’s bond.
Select the Right Adhesive:
- Choose an adhesive that suits your project’s needs. Consider factors like moisture resistance, type of flooring material, and the specific requirements of the installation.
Choose the Correct Trowel Size:
- Check the recommended trowel size on the ceramic tile box. Use the appropriate size to ensure proper adhesive coverage.
- Apply fresh adhesive during installation to ensure a strong bond.
Work Within the Specified Timeframe:
- Follow the recommended working time for each adhesive product. Working within the specified timeframe ensures optimal bonding.
Apply Adhesive in Straight Lines:
- Use a notched trowel to apply adhesive in straight lines, ensuring consistent coverage.
- Place the tiles or flooring material onto the adhesive while it’s still fresh.
Leave Proper Expansion Joints:
- Install perimeter joints, leaving a gap of 6–9 mm between the wall and the ceramic tiles.
- These expansion joints accommodate natural movement and prevent cracking.
Clean Excess Adhesive:
- Wipe off any excess adhesive before it dries to maintain a clean finish.
For ceramic tiles, porcelain, or other flooring materials, consider using PSP Porcelánico, an adhesive suitable for interior residential applications. It works for various coverings, eliminating the need for multiple adhesive types. You can even install it directly over existing ceramic tiles, saving time and effort.
To prepare PSP Porcelánico, mix 5 liters of clean water with the product until you achieve a smooth, lump-free paste. Apply it after 10 minutes, ensuring proper bonding. For larger tiles, apply adhesive to the back as well.
