DRYWALLS CAN BE SOUND PROOFED AS WELL.
• Offices should invest in drywall that is soundproofed for work
convenience.
• Allows people to work in offices without being bothered by
noises; or have confidential meetings.
• Ensures the silence and quietness in the property and it does
not cost a fortune.
DRYWALLS ARE FASTER TO BUILD
• Drywall is much easier to build
• Building with drywall is actually 5 to 8 times faster than using
other construction materials.
• As a result, businessmen and company owners can save a lot
of time and the productivity in their buildings won’t be affected
during the renovation process.
DRY WALL FEATURES A SMOOTH SURFACE
• Drywall is also aesthetically pleasing and it will fit perfectly in any company
or building.
• It features a crack-free, smooth, seamless surface that looks very elegant
and attractive.
• Can be finished with most types of finishes i.e. like paint or wallpaper or
laminates, etc.
• Help the employees and workers enjoy working in a beautiful environment.
DRY WALL IS EASIER TO REPAIR.
• Drywall is as durable as plaster, but in the case of damages
such as chips, cracks and holes
• Drywall is easier and quicker to repair, not to mention cheaper
DRY WALL HAS A GOOD FIRE
• Drywall is also fire-resistant because it is made from a tough
material (gypsum) which prevents the spreading of fire in the
entire building.
DRYWALL IS CONSIDERED LIGHT WEIGHT
• Drywall are 8 to 10 times lighter than masonry walls
• It contributes to the ease in handling and fast erection.
• Reduce the dead load of the structure
DRYWALL PARTITION SYSTEM IS STRONG AND STABLE.
• It can be supported by stud metal frames with sufficient
spacing.
• Boards can be screwed securely to the metal framing.
• Can be built at about 15 metre High.
PRACTICALFUNCTIONOFSUSPENDEDCEILING
SUSPENDED CEILING
1.Soundinsulation
• The acoustic performance of suspended ceiling with enhanced
sound absorption is achieved by adding insulation known as “
sound batts”.
• It helps to deaden sound and keep adjacent rooms quieter.
2.EaseofModification
• The required number of panels can be easily removed and
reassembled after the repairs have been carried out.
• To allow access to the area above the grid to do any
necessary wiring or plumbing modifications.
3.Fireproofing
• Offer up to 1 hour protection
• To cover and protect possible unsightly building services
4.Sustainability(EnergyEfficiency)
• Ceiling tiles with high light reflectance reduces the number of
required light fixtures required thus reducing energy
consumption.
• Improves the comfort and usability of interior space
5.ConcealsDuctwork,Pipes,andWires
• Easily conceal imperfections and flaws on the actual ceiling
to cover pipes, ductwork, stains and peeled paint
