Knauf Fire Walls Construction and application, surface treatment W13 Construction Knauf Fire Walls consist of a single metal stud frame. Two or three layers of Knauf boards are screwed to both sides of the metal framework. A metal sheet is installed below the top layer of the cladding. Insulation material according to the requirements of building physics can be installed in the partitions cavity. Settlement joints have to be taken over into the construction of the Fire Walls. For continuous walls use control joints at approx. 15 m. Application Metal stud frame Apply (two strings) or Sealing Tape to backside of runners for the connection of fl anking constructional components. For sound protection requirements seal up carefully with acoustical sealant according to DIN 4109, supplement 1, chapter 5.2; porous sealant strips like Sealing Tape are usually not suitable in this case. Fix perimeter runners (s at fl oor and ceiling, CW studs at walls) with suitable dowels to fl anking components, e.g. Ceiling Steel Dowel with reinforced concrete ceilings (use and application according to Construction Supervisory Permit Z-21.1-1519) and nailable plug with masonry. Spacing of dowels 0.5 m at ceilings, 1 m at walls (at least 3 fi xing points). For use dowel with washer Ø 30 mm, t 2 mm for connections to ceiling and fl oor. Install CW studs at a spacing of 31.25 cm in s, aligne, fi x with two metal rivets ( 3 x 8 mm) each to bottom and top. Cladding Two layer cladding of with horizontally applied Knauf Solid Board 20 mm vertically applied Knauf board GKF 12.5 mm or with three layer cladding with vertically applied Knauf boards GKF 12.5 mm. Two layer cladding of W132 with horizontally applied Knauf Fireboard 15 mm. Spacing of screws of fi rst layer 75 cm, of middle layer 50 cm and of top layer 25 cm. Displacement of joints according to DIN 18181. Metal sheets as plates or coil material, 0.5 mm thick, install horizontally under top layer, overlap all joints at least 10 cm. Screwing with Drywall screws ( three layers: TN 3.5 x 45/ two layers and W132: TN 3.5 x 35) only to fi x for installation, remove while applying the boards. Vertical joints of metal sheets only on studs. ing Filling and covering of joints should only take place after the boards have been allowed to rest in the given humidity and temperature zones, and no more longitudinal changes can be expected, i.e. expansion or contraction. s should be filled at a minimum temperature of 10 C. In case of mastic asphalt screed, fill in joints after screed has been applied. Cover all screw heads as well. For double layer cladding, fill in joints of first layer, smooth joints of second layer. : Fill in joints with without using tape. If using tape, fill in with Knauf Fugenfüller Leicht or with Ames machine and Knauf filler-super. Recommendation: Fill in and tape cut edges of visible layers no matter which filling material is used. W132: Hand filling with Fiber Glas Tape and Knauf Fireboard Filler.

Ensure that the primer and the coat or paint are compatible. After wallpapering of paper and fi ber glass wallpapers and the application of resin / cellulose plasters quick drying must be assured through adequate airing. The following coats can be used to cover Knauf Boards: Plasters: Knauf structured plasters, e.g. resin plasters, thin plasters, entire area smoothing like e.g. Knauf Board-Finish, mineral plasters in connection with paper taped jointing. ceramic tiles Wall Papers: paper-, textile and synthetic wall papers. Use only adhesives made of cellulose according to Merkblatt Nr. 16, Technische Richtlinien für Tapezier- und Klebearbeiten, Frankfurt/Main 2002, released by Bundesausschuss Farbe und Sachwertschutz. Coats: Washable and abrasion-proof emulsion paint, multicolored (rainbow) emulsion, oil paint, matte-fi nish lacquer, alkyd resin paint, polymer resin paint, PUR lacquer, or epoxybased lacquer, according to intended use or as required. Alkaline coats such as lime, water glass colors and silicate-based paints are unsuitable for gypsum board surfaces. Silicate-based emulsion paints may be used after referring to the manufacturer s recommendations and following the stipulated guidelines closely. Gypsum board surfaces that have constantly been exposed to light without any protection can develop yellowing agents that show up despite a coat of paint. Therefore a trial coat is recommended that will extend across several boards including all joints. Yellowing can, however, be successfully avoided only by using a special shielding primer.
