Below you’ll find all of the information needed to complete wall lining, partition, floor and ceiling systems, no matter the size and complexity of the project specification.
Can I reduce stud centres to increase the maximum height of a partition?
For partitions where no fire rating is required, or where specified to BS 476: Part 22, the maximum system height is limited to the cold state height (L/240@200Pa.) Refer to the following Technical Guidance Note.
Can I use the moisture resistant version of a board and still achieve the same performance?
Where moisture resistance is required in a British Gypsum partition, lining or ceiling, the moisture-resistant version of a board, in the same thickness as the original specification, can be used without impacting the system performance.
How do I install service penetrations in British Gypsum systems?
If services are required to penetrate a British Gypsum system, the system performances must be maintained. This includes fire resistance, acoustic separation and structural integrity.
The type of head and base track you need is detailed in the Technical Specification document for the solution you choose. The head track may also change dependent on deflection head requirements.
