entire building.

9. 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

10. 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.

11. PRACTICALFUNCTIONOFSUSPENDEDCEILING
SUSPENDED CEILING

13. 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.

14. 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
