The document discusses different types of partition walls, including wooden, brick, glass, and aluminum partitions. Wooden partitions are light but not fireproof or suitable for damp areas. Brick partitions are fire resistant and soundproof but more durable. Glass partitions provide aesthetics and allow light while being damp, sound, and heat proof. Aluminum partitions are light, strong, and widely used in offices and industrial buildings. The document outlines advantages such as privacy and dividing space efficiently, and disadvantages such as using non-sustainable materials and potentially decreasing living space if placed incorrectly.

1. Wooden partition wall
2. Brick partition wall.
3. Glass partition wall.
4. Aluminium partition wall.

4. Wooden Partition
• Wooden frame work are
either supported on the
floor below or by side
walls.
• They are light in weight
and easy to construct.
• They are not suitable for
damp locations and they
are not fire proof.

5. Brick Partition
• Brick partitions may be
constructed using plain
bricks, reinforced bricks,
brick nogging and hollow
bricks.
• Brick Partitions are fire
resistant and sound proof.
• These have more strength and
are more durable.

6. Glass Partition
• They are made from sheet glass
or hollow glass blocks.
• Sheets of glass are usually fixed
in the frame work of wood or
metal.
• They provide good aesthetics
and allow light.
• They damp, sound and heat
proof.

7. Aluminium Partition
• They are light in weight, strong
and stable.
• Frame works are created and
then insulated material is filled
into hollow spaces.
• These are easy to construct.
• Widely used in offices and in
industrial buildings.

8. Advantages
• Provide Privacy from sight and sound.
• Divide the whole area into number of rooms.
• Easy construction and occupy less space.
• Light in weight an cost effective.

9. Disadvantages
• Traditional partition wall, is that it is often detrimental to
the environment. It is usually not made up of
environmentally friendly materials, but rather made of non
sustainable and non recyclable materials.
• By placing it in the wrong position/place, you can quickly
darken the area and even break the volume and decrease
the living space.
