In a certain situation, the emerging issue of redevelopment or construction of new interior partitions requires maximum attention. Must be accepted the right decision about the nature of the partitions, the material for their manufacture, sufficient sound insulation of the resulting structure.
Interior partition: why is it installed?
The problem of constructing interior partitions has become especially relevant in lately, since many apartments in new buildings are built on the open-plan principle. In this case, the homeowner has more options for placing partitions in an apartment with maximum comfort for yourself. The main difficulty in this case can only be right choice suitable material for partitions and competent execution of work on their construction.
Partition between the kitchen and living room in the apartment
There are two most typical points of view on the construction of interior partitions:
- On the one hand, the owners of the premises want to preserve the usable area as much as possible and erect thin partitions that would not “eat up” square meters. From this point of view, thin partitions are the ideal option.
- On the other hand, partitions must have a certain strength to support the weight of cabinets, pictures and shelves, while also guaranteeing good sound insulation properties.
- Silicate and ceramic. Experts do not recommend laying sand-lime brick in rooms with high level humidity.
- Full and hollow. Hollow brick is also not recommended for use in bathrooms.
- high strength;
- durability;
- external attractiveness.

What material is best to make it from?
Used as a building material for interior partitions various materials- from brick to glass blocks, but the main ones include brick, foam blocks, wood and aluminum with plasterboard. The choice of a particular material should depend not only on the preferences of the builders or owners, but also on the planned load on the supporting structures and the safety of the partitions being built.
Brick
This type of partition is considered the most durable, so such a wall will not be damaged heavy shelves or massive paintings. As a partition, a half-brick wall is usually laid so that the total thickness of the structure is no more than 160 mm (together).
The following types of bricks are used for partitions:
If there are no outlet bricks, you can use the following fastenings of the partition to the wall
When laying a brick partition, you should take into account the weight of the resulting wall and the load on the supporting structures (on average it is about 300 kg per square meter of area). In addition, to construct a partition longer than 1.5 meters, it is necessary to use a special reinforcing mesh, which increases the strength of the resulting partition.
Masonry of a solid partition sand-lime brick
A significant disadvantage of a brick wall is its cost: the price of not only the material itself is high, but also the work involved in laying it.
Blocks: foam blocks and aerated concrete
Interior partitions made of foam blocks are much lighter than brick ones, and at the same time have excellent heat-insulating and sound-absorbing properties. The total thickness of the partition, taking into account the layers of plaster, is about 130 mm.
We outline the locations of future walls
The blocks are easy to cut and model: in such partitions it is quite simple to install door frames or cut a figured arch. Such properties make foam block an ideal material for the construction of interior structures.

Fact! Foam blocks are not as durable as brick. Therefore, experts do not recommend giving such a structure a load of more than 20 kg.
Laying such a structure in order easier to install brick wall, which significantly reduces work time and reduces labor costs.
Wooden partitions
The use of wood as interior partitions is quite rare. A wooden partition is either solid wood with the necessary soundproofing filling.
Wooden frame
Wooden partitions are often used to save space, when the partition itself becomes something between a wall and a piece of furniture. Besides, special kind wooden partitions allow the use of sliding systems and creative zoning of the room.
Wooden partitions have the following advantages:
We cover the sound insulation in the frame with sheets of plywood
Drywall
Most widespread in modern construction received plasterboard partitions. This interest is due ideal qualities drywall: from ease of installation to the ability to obtain partitions of any shape. Most builders have sufficient knowledge to perform drywall work to a high standard.
Advice! In rooms with high humidity When installing a plasterboard structure, moisture-resistant material should be used.
They are the lightest: the weight of one square meter is no more than 50 kg, which makes such partitions extremely attractive, especially when paying attention to the load on supporting structures.
Fact! can withstand quite Not heavy weight no more than 15 kg. If such a partition will have an additional load, then it is advisable to strengthen the structure with sheets of plywood.
When constructing such partitions, it is important to maintain the required level of sound insulation by using additional insulating materials.
Internal partitions require the selection of appropriate materials. There are many materials and technologies on the market - brick, concrete, plasterboard.
How to choose suitable material what are there interior partitions what is better to make from, advantages, disadvantages various options as without extra costs build a good, durable partition - these issues are discussed in this article.
Popular materials
In some cases, walls must be strong enough, be able to withstand the weight of objects suspended on them (sometimes heavy), and must have good sound insulation. There are many solutions for the construction of internal partitions:
- concrete blocks,
- ceramic materials (regular, hollow bricks),
- clinker,
- concrete,
- drywall,
- silicate blocks,
- expanded clay blocks,
- lightweight concrete blocks.
Clay hollow brick is less durable than clinker. Below we will talk about the most common technologies used in construction, which partitions are better in an apartment, what is cheaper and more durable to build partitions from, what properties do different materials have.
Brick, clinker
Popular traditional material for the construction of partitions - brick. There are several types of brick walls.
Advantages:
- brick has better sound insulation;
- high strength;
- on walls made of solid brick, clinker, you can hang heavy objects, the situation is similar in the case of hollow bricks, but in this case you should use reinforced fastenings for hanging heavy objects, as they may end up in voids;
- brick structures are highly resistant to mechanical damage.
Flaws:
- Solid walls, hollow brick, clinkers are very heavy, significantly increasing the load on the floor.
- Typically, bricks (full, hollow, clinker) with dimensions of 25 x 12 x 6.5 cm are used. Construction interior wall labor-intensive: for 1 m² of wall you will need 60 bricks, large number solution.
- The brick has large deviations in dimensions and uneven surfaces. After laying it, the wall will need to be plastered, the thickness of the plaster layer is at least 1.0-1.5 cm, which increases the cost and duration of construction of the structure.
Due to high weight brick partitions placed on a reinforced floor, for example, on properly designed reinforced concrete beams supported by load-bearing walls. Care should be taken when changing the location of walls upper floors. When making changes, be sure to consult with designers and construction specialists.
Which brick is better? The use of hollow bricks can reduce the weight of the partition by 20-30%. However, a hollow brick wall has less soundproofing properties than a partition made of ordinary brick.
Finishing work can be speeded up if, instead of plastering, finishing is done with plasterboard panels. Drywall does not need to be plastered; it is enough to apply putty before painting or wallpapering.
Clinker brick partitions are not plastered; this solution is expensive due to high prices for clinker good quality.
Aerated concrete is a common material, like drywall, characterized by a fairly low construction cost. 
Ceramic brick
This 11.5 cm thick building material is often used to build walls.
Advantages:
- relatively inexpensive, cheaper than solid, hollow brick;
- allows for faster construction of the structure than in the case of standard brick walls, due to larger size(50 x 20 x 11.5 cm), easy to style;
- such brick walls provide good acoustic parameters indoors;
- allows you to hang heavy objects, special spring pins should be used.
Ceramic brick walls are finished in different ways:
- plastered with plaster 1.0-1.5 cm thick;
- finished with plasterboard.
Walls can be realized using concrete blocks or ceramic materials, such as solid brick, hollow brick, clinker. Clay brick is less durable than clinker. There are several interesting alternatives to these materials - silicate blocks for interior walls in the apartment, blocks of expanded clay, lightweight concrete.
Wall made of luxpheres or glass blocks
Sometimes glass blocks (luxpheres) are used to create certain stylizations. Luxpheres are an alternative to plasterboard structures and provide interesting decorative effects. This material is successfully used as a wall between the kitchen and living room, and other rooms, if it suits the styling of the interior.

Aerated concrete blocks
Cellular concrete blocks – popular material for the construction of walls.
Advantages of aerated concrete:
- ease of cutting and shaping almost any surface;
- You can quickly drill grooves into them for wiring.
- It is relatively easy to correct any defects or chips on the walls;
- standard aerated concrete block has dimensions of 60 x 20 x 11.5 cm, allowing you to quickly build walls, provides lower mortar consumption compared to brick;
- Unlike brick, concrete blocks are produced with low dimensional deviation, so thin masonry joints can be used and a thinner layer of plaster (0.8-1.0 cm) can be applied.
Flaws:
- much worse sound insulation than brick of any kind, you need to take into account the purpose of the room;
- aerated concrete has relatively low strength, so you need to hang heavy objects carefully;
- walls made of cellular concrete are less resistant to mechanical damage,
- Due to poor sound insulation, a thicker layer of plaster (1.5 cm) is recommended for aerated concrete walls in residential areas, which increases the ability to absorb sound. There are also special plasterboard plates with an additional layer of sound insulation, but this significantly increases total cost wall construction.
Expanded clay concrete blocks
Expanded clay concrete blocks are an interesting alternative for those who like to use concrete blocks.
Advantages:
- high strength will allow you to hang heavy objects (but less durable than brick);
- absorb sound better;
- price expanded clay concrete wall lower than the cost of a partition made of conventional concrete blocks.
Expanded clay blocks are placed on a standard solution and finished:
- ordinary gypsum plaster;
- lime;
- cement;
- clay (ecological plaster).
Silicate blocks
Silicate blocks are:
- full;
- hollow, having special grooves, for example, for laying cables, which allows you to avoid making grooves in the wall.
Advantages:
- excellent acoustic characteristics - 8 cm thick blocks are characterized by increased sound insulation standards, ensuring acoustic comfort;
- silicate blocks are manufactured with high precision and do not require a large thickness of plaster - usually a plaster thickness of 0.5-0.8 cm is required;
- silicates are characterized by high strength, resistance to heavy weight - you can easily hang heavy objects on them without damaging the wall;
- the cost of a partition made of silicate blocks is comparable to the cost of a partition made of clay brick; but the bricks need to be plastered; silicate walls do not need to be plastered, which reduces the cost.
Which interior partition will be a compromise in terms of cost savings, sufficient strength, and sound insulation? These are plasterboard walls.
Interior partitions made of plasterboard
Modern wall partitions between rooms are often made of plasterboard. There are waterproof panels used as partitions in bathrooms. The walls consist of two plasterboard surfaces mounted on special metal profiles. A mineral wool filler can be placed between them. The total thickness of such a wall is usually 12 cm.
Advantages of plasterboard partitions:
- have an average ability to absorb sound;
- contribute to a good microclimate in the room, thanks to the ability of gypsum to absorb and release moisture contained in the air;
- do not require plastering, putty is enough;
- speed of construction.
Flaws:
- Heavy objects on plasterboard structures should be placed carefully; they are not as strong as brick walls - it is not recommended to hang heavy objects without special installation. Usually, if there is a need to hang a heavy object, the fasteners are fixed to a metal profile located inside the partition. After finishing, it is not always possible to determine exactly where the profile components are located, so fasteners should be planned and marked in advance.
- Significant disadvantage frame structures– low resistance to impacts and damage.
- When using drywall in bathrooms, an additional layer of moisture insulation is recommended, even on waterproof boards.
Drywall frame structures are a cost-effective, quickly erected solution. If good quality is used for the design mineral wool, you can achieve decent sound insulation. Unfortunately, even the most best materials Such performance qualities as brick, hollow concrete blocks, and silicates will not provide.
What to choose?
This question worries many at the stage of planning a project, budgeting for construction or home renovation. We looked at the most popular options for making interior partitions.
- IN normal conditions, it is recommended to make partitions from hollow ceramic and sand-lime bricks. Both solutions provide high insulation parameters and are relatively quick to build. In the case of high-quality silicates, there is no need to plaster the surface, which leads to lower construction costs.
- If you need to achieve maximum sound insulation, the walls are made of solid brick. This decision must be made at the design stage in order to properly strengthen the floor under the partition.
- Concrete blocks, expanded clay give limited opportunity hanging heavy objects.
- Choosing expensive solutions - clinker, glass blocks - will give good acoustic properties and high strength, but the price is quite high.
Every person who has decided to renovate their apartment has at least once thought about whether I should tear down this wall or move the partition to a new place at an unprecedented angle? Of course, there will be some difficulties with approvals from the relevant authorities and building codes. But let’s assume that the desired papers with seals and signatures are in your hands, and the partitions that hinder the flight of your imagination have been demolished. So it's time to start building new ones.
First of all, you need to figure out how you see the walls in your apartment in the future. Will it be an ordinary partition, with the help of which one room is separated from another, or something more. If you want to build a niche or arched opening in the wall, will the wall provide heat and sound insulation? Or maybe you would like to put sliding doors, which will go deep into the partition, or attach a horizontal bar or wall bars to a newly created wall?
Thermal insulation of walls
This question is especially relevant for those whose apartment is a corner one, or if there are two room walls are facade, or if the facade of the building has defects. IN normal home, which is built in accordance with construction technologies and the norms, such problems should not arise.
For the most part, only the outer walls need insulation. Mineral wool, glass wool or expanded polystyrene are used as insulation. The insulation is closed using plasterboard sheets, which are fixed to the frame in 1-2 layers. For glass wool and mineral wool thermal conductivity properties approximately equal. There is a stigma against these materials that they pose a health hazard. In fact, it is harmful to inhale microparticles in the form of dust that are present in the air during the installation of glass wool and mineral wool. This is why you need to use a respirator when working with these materials. After drywall is fixed over the insulation, glass and mineral wool does not pose a danger. In addition, this material is completely non-flammable. Among the famous construction brands insulating materials URSA, ISOVER, ROCKWOOL are in the lead.
Expanded polystyrene is recognized as a more effective insulation material, since its thermal conductivity properties are lower. The main disadvantage of this material is its higher cost and the fact that it is moderately flammable. If you are going to insulate the walls using polystyrene foam, it is better to give preference to brands with a fire retardant additive; This is a special substance that reduces the flammable properties of insulation.
Soundproofing walls
If you want peace and quiet in your apartment, but restless neighbors organize parties almost every day, or you have the desire and opportunity to install a stereo system in the living room, and next room If there is a children's room, then it is simply necessary to take care of the soundproofing of the walls.
In principle, the technologies and materials used are similar to thermal insulation, but there are also differences. To soundproof partitions and walls, a combination of materials that have different densities is used. For example, glass wool and mineral wool. These materials low density, and instead of facing panels, gypsum boards and gypsum fiber sheets are installed; they have a higher density. There are others, including sound-absorbing, sound-insulating specialized materials, but they are not cheap.
Do not forget that when sound and heat insulation is done, you will have to sacrifice part of the apartment’s area, because the resulting walls will be at least 6 cm thicker. All of the above about sound insulation is true for each type of partition, which will be discussed now.
What are the types of partitions?
Partitions made of gypsum fiber and plasterboard sheets. They are very convenient if you plan to create an arch, niches, columns and other surfaces. Such partitions are quickly installed and do not require plastering. It’s convenient to place them inside antenna cable, telephone, electrical or internet wiring. The only drawback of such structures is that it is impossible to attach heavy objects to a single-layer partition.
There are several options for solving this problem: use 2 sheets of cladding on each side, lay a wooden beam directly in metal racks partition frame, you can also attach plywood to the frame before installing the plasterboard sheets.
Brick partition. This type is considered traditional. For the construction of partitions in an apartment, it is better to use hollow or solid ceramic bricks. Solid bricks good for creating partitions on which something heavy will be hung (for example, a sliding oak door). In such a wall you can also easily arrange an arch, niche, etc. decorative elements. The disadvantage of partitions made of such material is plastering the surface (required) before the final stage finishing and more long period construction compared to other technologies.
Partition made of foam concrete (gas silicate) blocks. Such partitions are erected much faster than brick ones, but the surface must be plastered.
Partition made of tongue-and-groove slabs (gypsum). This material is very convenient, the walls can be erected quickly, they do not need to be plastered, because they are already ready for final finishing work. Of course, slabs made of foam concrete, expanded clay and tongue-and-groove slabs have certain limitations in terms of design, but this is rare.
All types of partitions have good sound insulation and are not flammable. As for the cost of work in rubles. for 1m2 without plastering and finishing works, then it is as follows:
- drywall (single-layer) 235/350;
- brick (half a brick) 330/350;
- gas silicate or foam concrete blocks 300/300;
- tongue-and-groove slabs 330/300.
How to make walls smooth
It is important to remember that plasterboard and tongue-and-groove slabs do not require plastering. But expanded clay, brick and foam concrete partitions need to be plastered and puttied. The best option There will be gypsum plaster. It will cost a little more than the standard one cement-sand mixture, but the advantages are undeniable. It dries faster, is easier to apply, has good adhesion, the surfaces are more even and smooth, which will subsequently allow you to buy a more economical version of the putty. Do not forget that putty for painting is more expensive than for wallpaper.
Before applying putty for painting, it is advisable to coat the wall finishing putty with filler with a very fine fraction: maximum 0.1 mm, even less is possible. Putties and gypsum plaster mixtures are presented at Russian market under the brands VETONIT, KNAUF, CONSOLIT, BOLARS, UNIS, PRODUCERS.
After the walls finally became even and smooth, another crucial moment came: what type of finishing should I give preference to? There are many options: painting, wallpapering or wallpaper for painting, Venetian plaster or decorative painting. Cladding panels from different materials or decorative stone, in these two cases no preliminary putty is required. The choice of material depends on the concept of the design project.
What to remember when building walls in an apartment
If you don’t trust the construction team too much and are afraid that they may use cheaper materials than those indicated in the estimate, you should regularly appear in the apartment during the construction of walls. For example, distinguish between high-quality and expensive tongue-and-groove slab famous manufacturer from a nameless cheap analogue it is quite difficult. What can we say about expanded clay, brick or foam concrete. But it is quite possible to distinguish with what materials workers putty and plaster the walls in the apartment. The difference in price for these materials, as well as the differences in their quality characteristics, are quite significant.
When soundproofing partitions, it is very important that a special elastic tape is glued between the floor, walls and ceiling and the frame of the gypsum fiber sheets. If you don't do this, your wall will turn into an excellent resonator for impact noise that is transmitted through the ceiling.
The outer corners of a partition or wall must be covered with a special plaster corner, which will prevent damage.
Many people worry about practical side question, that is, how easy it is to clean something wall covering from damage, how long it will last, whether it is difficult to repair. It's obvious that practical option there will be smooth and durable surfaces rather than textured and brittle ones. When repairing damage, what causes the owners the most problems is restoring the decor and texture of the surface. After you've completed your renovation, save 1 roll of each type of wallpaper you used.
The construction of walls should only be trusted to professionals. It is very important not only to skillfully install interior partitions, but also to choose their design correctly. If they are intended to be installed for a long period of time, it is necessary to take care of additional heat and sound insulation. Also, the partition must be especially strong and durable. In other cases, you can choose an option that involves the construction of easily disassembled or mobile structures. They will be less durable, but will share without great expense free space for several zones.

Partition options
Depending on the materials used, there are following types partitions:
- brick. They have high strength, moisture resistance, sound and heat insulating properties. Disadvantages - heavy weight, need for plastering;
- from tongue-and-groove slabs (GGP). This material is fire-resistant, not afraid of moisture, and can be quickly installed. Disadvantage: relatively low strength;
- from foam blocks. Advantages: light weight, high sound insulation properties, ease of installation, forms a flat surface. Disadvantage - the blocks may not have an ideal shape;
- plasterboard. Advantages: light weight, fire resistant, formation of smooth and flat surface. Disadvantages – low strength, afraid of moisture. Also, the construction of walls from gypsum plasterboard is very popular in apartments due to the ease of installation work.
There are a huge variety of designs for interior partitions; they can be used regardless of the materials from which your house is built.
It is quite important to make the partitions technologically correctly and to ensure the appropriate requirements that will be necessary for certain rooms.
If we consider vertical structures inside the house you can distinguish load-bearing walls and interior partitions. All floors and roof structures rest on the former, and they themselves rest on. Position on the house plan load-bearing walls strictly recorded.
Interior partitions in in this case will not be load-bearing structures. They only divide into separate rooms interior space the whole house. Therefore, they can be performed using both heavy building materials(for example, sand-lime brick), and from light ones (for example, wood or). The sound insulation of the house, environmental friendliness, and beautiful aesthetics depend on the building material and the quality of the interior partitions. appearance, the possibility of redevelopment of the space in the future.
Interior partitions in wooden house should be:
- durable and reliable so as not to create any danger for the residents of the house;
- withstand deadline its operation;
- have no cracks or crevices on the surface or at points of connection to other structures of the house.
In addition, there are special requirements:
- For bathroom and laundry partitions, penetration resistance is quite important. humid air and a couple. They must be made from waterproof building materials, but the main thing to consider is to prevent moisture and dampness from getting inside the structure. Will solve this problem perfectly correct cladding made of waterproof building material;
- For interior partitions on second floors and attic rooms in houses with wooden floors, their light weight, since they are able to withstand a smaller load than reinforced concrete;
- If you plan to illuminate a room in the back of the house, then it is better to use a translucent partition made of special glass blocks or structures with glass inserts;
- For laying the corresponding engineering communications(, chimney, etc.) a stationary interior partition of increased thickness is perfect;
- Partitions inside the house separating areas with different temperature conditions, must be massive and guarantee good thermal insulation.
Interior partitions made of gypsum concrete are several times lighter than brick ones and have a flat and smooth surface.
The thickness of such a structure from one layer of slabs will be only 10 cm. If it is necessary to increase the sound insulation of the room or lay pipelines in the interior partition, it must be made double.
Installation of this system begins with leveling cement-sand mortar ceilings, then a special waterproofing made of roofing felt is placed under the lower blocks.
The template is made from two racks with a moving rail. Typically, the slabs are mounted on top of each other with the long side strictly horizontal, with all seams bandaged. Apply gypsum mortar. Metal reinforcement is placed in all horizontal seams and fastened into the walls that limit the interior partition. The gap between the ceiling and the interior partition is sealed with a special gypsum mixture. It is not necessary to plaster the slabs, just puttying is enough.
Important point gypsum mixture must be prepared immediately before use as it hardens very quickly. And all metal rods that are installed between the rows of slabs must be treated with a special bitumen varnish.
In new houses, before installing partitions, it is advisable to wait several months after installing the load-bearing structures of the house so that they can undergo the necessary shrinkage. Interior partitions in the house are installed before the floor screed is made. When making a screed or rough wooden flooring in the future, a 2 cm thick layer of soundproofing building material is placed between the wall and the floor.
The installation of systems begins by marking their location with lines on the floor, walls and ceiling.
Interior structures are firmly connected to the floor at the base and nearby walls.
Wooden interior partitions
Currently, two types of partitions are used: frame house using wood - these are solid and frame. 
Wooden partitions are used in houses made of different materials, without reinforcement wooden floors, they are perfect for the second floors of houses and attic rooms. Such structures are easy to install and dismantle, so they are ideal if you are planning redevelopment in the future. In rooms with increased humidity, wooden partitions must be protected with waterproof protection.
Solid wooden partitions are made from vertically standing boards. To increase the size, the boards are mounted in two rows, distributing soundproofing material or an air gap between them. The disadvantage of this design is the high consumption of materials and, as a consequence, the cost, as well as the large specific gravity compared to frame interior partitions.
Do-it-yourself installation of these partitions in a house is carried out as follows: a special beam is laid at the base of the interior partition, which rests firmly on the floor beams. To form continuous construction On the harness it is necessary to fasten two horizontal guides, between which the boards are vertically fastened, connecting them in the upper part with a fastening wooden block.
When installing a frame partition on the strapping, the posts are placed with a certain step, combining them with an upper frame. Details and elements wooden frame secured together with nails or self-tapping screws, using metal corners. The sheathing is installed on one side, and after that the space between wooden beams filled with sound insulation. Wooden frame structures are secured to the walls using metal crutches and to the sheathing using self-tapping screws.
At the junction of partitions with adjacent structures, a special metal mesh must be secured. This will protect the entire structure from cracks.
In a wooden frame house interior designs must be installed one year after the house is built, i.e. after significant shrinkage. The distance between the top of the interior partition and the ceiling must be at least 10 cm. It must be filled with tow and covered with triangular bars.
Plasterboard partitions
Wall partitions drywall A modern system for installing frame partitions made of plasterboard allows you to construction work especially fast.
Lightweight plasterboard partitions in the house can be used from different designs and building materials and in any other premises, even with increased air humidity.
This system includes metal profiles - horizontal guides and vertical racks and a special soundproofing building material.
They use structures with different layers of cladding, as well as on double metal frame. The level of sound insulation of an interior partition depends on the total number of sheathing sheets, the total thickness of the internal sound insulation layer, and the presence of an air gap.
These structures are mounted during finishing work before installation. Polyurethane soundproofing tape is glued onto horizontal metal profiles and secured to the floor and ceiling using dowels and screws. Rack-mounted metal profiles are installed in increments of 60 cm. The frame sheathing must be secured on one side with self-tapping screws, and be sure to be placed between metal profiles soundproofing material. After this, the sheathing is installed on the other side of the partition. All roughness and unevenness of the cladding, as well as screw heads, must be sealed with putty.
For better quality sound insulation, partitions are installed to load-bearing structures ceiling and only after that drywall is laid. All seams between plasterboard sheets should be puttied in several steps.
Interior partitions made of glass materials
Glass interior partitions To create these interior partitions, glass blocks are used, which differ from each other in a huge palette of different colors, a choice of surface textures and original sizes.
Glass interior partitions are used so as not to limit the access of natural light to rooms located in the depths of a frame house.
All glass blocks have the appearance of hollow “bricks” with walls made of transparent or colored glass. Due to the presence of air inside them, they have excellent soundproofing properties and transmit up to 80% of daylight.
Installation and installation of glass blocks is carried out as follows: blocks, as a rule, are laid at the final stage of finishing the room, but before final finishing walls and ceiling. Glass blocks are laid on cement screed. Process Installing them into a wall is similar to the process of bricklaying, although bandaging the seams is not necessary. The thickness of the seam is approximately 1 cm. For installation, use cement mixture or cement-lime mortar. It is applied to horizontal and vertical surfaces glass block.
The connection of an interior partition made of glass blocks to the ceiling must be sufficiently elastic, using cork gaskets, since glass is a very fragile building material, and the wall may crack under various deformations.
It is better to install glass blocks on white or colored cement, then the seams will look neater.
Prices for interior partitions
The final cost of the interior partition will depend on various factors.
And fire-resistant building materials will cost more standard materials. Also, the price can be increased by the quantity and quality of the final finishing, base frame and soundproofing material. Installation of an interior partition is approximately 40% of the cost of all building materials, and its delivery to the destination and unloading, especially when choosing heavy building materials, can be equal to their cost.
