How to handle plaster boards on the wall interior designing and decoration?

Nail the sheets of plasterboard to the battens using plasterboard nails.
Locating joists
To locate the joists in a top-floor room, you need to climb up into the attic space and take a look. In a boarded attic or in an upstairs room, you need to note where the nails are that fix the floorboards to the underlying joists. If the boards are covered, tap the ceiling in the room below with your knuckles. A “solid” sound and feel indicates the presence of a joist. Alternatively, you will have to make a series of small test holes with a drill to find the joists and then make good afterwards. Supporting noggins can meet each other exactly or be slightly offset. Support it with an off cut while nailing. If a door frame is required, the top should be cut into the studs so that it is firmly supported.

  • Disguising the joints hide the joints between the boards, to use a smooth, professional surface at can then be painted or papered, the ,sowing materials are required: Next, apply jointing tape, pressing it down with a filling knife so that it is well embedded in the jointing compound. o Feather out the edges of the jointing compound with a moist sponge. Allow the compound to dry thoroughly. To fill the joints between the plaster- board, first apply jointing compound to the tapered edges using a steel float. Use the steel float once more to apply another band of jointing compound, 20 cm wide.

Finally, apply another band of jointing compound, this time 30 cm wide. 4 Screen walls Although they don’t offer much benefit in terms of sound insulation and, often, they cannot be used as structural partitions, screen walls are a quick and relatively inexpensive method of dividing up a large space. In this way, different uses can be made of what was formerly a single-activity room.
As well as the traditional Japanese style of screen wall, freestanding “flats” can be used, or a stud work and plasterboard partition can be constructed, which is capable of sup- porting bookshelves and pictures. Above Here, a traditional Japanese type screen is made out of black wooden frame and textured glass. Below Wood finish screen divides the space, and offers different ways of varying the arrangement of the room. • Archways can be an elegant solution to softening what otherwise could be an inappropriately stark or boxy room feature. For example, where a wall that formerly divided two rooms has been removed to create a larger, more open space, a wider arch than is strictly necessary will transform the boring square opening framed by the supporting rolled-steel joist resting on its piers. On a smaller, more intimate scale, an arched opening can be used to link two related rooms, such as a kitchen and dining room or a bedroom and bathroom or dressing room.
