- Risk of dust explosion - Avoid grinding swarf inhalation -

Jointing and finishing


Joint compound
Hand-fill the joints with joint compound
(e.g. Knauf Ready Mix Lite) and joint tape
(e.g. Knauf Fibre Tape).

General:
Plaster over any visible screw heads.
Apply fibreglass joint tape to cut-edge
joints as well.

Preparation
Sprinkle joint compound into clean, cold
water until its level is just below the
surface of the water (e.g. max. 2.5 kg
Knauf Ready Mix Lite in approx. 1.9 l
water).
Without adding further ingredients, stir to a
thick, creamy consistency with a filling
knife.
Do not mix joint compound with other
materials as this may significantly alter its
properties.

Jointing:
Apply a thin layer of joint compound and lay
fibreglass joint tape along the joint. Before
proceeding, the joint compound must be hard
and dry.

Amount of material:
Joint compound:
Skimming:

approx. 0.3 kg/m


as required

Skimming:
An additional coat with a suitable finishing
plaster (e.g. Knauf Multi-Finish or Knauf
Board Finish) is recommended if the surface
has to meet special requirements.

Application temperature and weather


conditions
Jointing should be carried out only
when Micronal PCM SmartBoard
are no longer undergoing any no
significant length changes, e.g. as a
result of changes in humidity or
temperature.
The room temperature must not be
below about 10C.
Where mastic asphalt flooring is to be
laid, do not joint Micronal PCM
SmartBoard until the floor has been
laid.
Finishing
Lightly sand the jointed areas, if required,
when they are dry. Prime the surface
(e.g. with Knauf Wallboard Primer) before
applying a coating (e.g. paint or
wallpaper).

Construction + Installation
Walls: construction and installation
Metal stud walls consist of simple studwork
lined on one face or both with Micronal PCM
SmartBoard. The studwork is connected
around its perimeter with adjoining structural
members.
Insulation, electric wiring and plumbing may
be installed in the wall cavity.
Expansion joints in the main structure must be
repeated in the stud wall construction.
Expansion joints are required every 15 m or
so in continuous walls.

Substructure
Apply sealant or sealing tape (two
beads) to the reverse side of profiles for
connecting the SmartBoard to
adjoining structural members. Where
sound proofing is required, carefully
apply sealant according to DIN 4109,
Suppl.1, Section 5.2. Porous sealing
strips such as sealing tapes are
generally unsuitable for this purpose.
Where a ceiling span deflection of
10 mm is expected, the ceiling should
have a floating edge.
Fix edge profiles to adjoining structural
members with suitable fixings. Spacing
of fixings 1 m; at least 3 fixings to walls.
Fixing method for solid adjoining structural
members: rawl plugs (e.g. Knauf Nailable
Plugs).

For hollow-core structural members:


special fixing elements suitable for the
material.
Insert the C studs perpendicularly into
the U channels at 415 mm centres und
align.
Lining
SmartBoards should preferably be
fixed vertically. Stagger vertical joints.
No SmartBoard joints above door
jambs.
Stagger horizontal joints by at least. 400
mm. Fill joints using fibreglass joint
tape.
Fix SmartBoards with drywall screws,
TN 3.5 x 25 mm, spaced 250 mm apart.

Ceilings: construction and installation


SmartBoard ceiling linings are fixed directly
to the ceiling structure. SmartBoard
suspended ceilings are attached with wire or
rigid hangers to the ceiling structure.
SmartBoards are screwed to a timber
substructure of battens and counter battens, a
metal grid of main runners and cross runners,
or a flush metal grid of main runners and
cross runners.
Expansion joints in the main structure must be
repeated in the SmartBoard ceiling
construction. Expansion joints are required if
the ceiling is longer than approx. 15 m or
significantly narrowed (e.g. narrow sections
due to projecting walls). Allow a gap between
SmartBoards and structural members made
of other materials, especially pillars, or
fixtures subject to high thermal stress such as
modular light fittings, for example with
recessed joints that allow movement.

Reinforced concrete: approved


expansion bolts (e.g. Knauf ceiling nails use according to the German Building
Code, No. Z-21.1-1519),
Other building materials: fixing elements
specially approved or standardized for
the material.

Substructure
Fixing to ceiling structure
Timber: Use approved screws (e.g. Knauf
Drywall Screws used according to the
German Building Code, No. Z- 9.1-251),

Runner/batten connections
50 x 30 mm mm ceiling battens and
50 x 30 counter battens with TN 4.3
x 55 mm drywall screws
C-shaped main runners and cross
runners with C-shaped clips or
intersection clips

Substructure is hung with hanger wires and


rapid hangers, direct hangers or Nonius
hangers.
For fixing distances on ceiling and centre
distances of main runners/ ceiling
battens, see table below.
Centre distances of cross runners/
counter battens 400 mm.
Fasten main runners or ceiling battens to
hangers, ensuring that the substructure is
suspended at the required height and
completely level.

High-rigidity U-shaped main runners and


C-shaped cross runners with high-rigidity
U-shaped clips
Ceiling is connected to walls, where
necessary, using 28 x 27 mm wall
mouldings. Fixings should be suitable for
the building material, fixing distance max.
1 m.
Lining
Fix SmartBoard sheets at right angles
to battens or runners.
Stagger end joints by at least 400 mm
and fix over battens or runners.
Fix SmartBoards in the middle or
begin at one corner to avoid
compression and bowing. Press boards
firmly against the substructure while
they are being fixed. Use TN 3.5 x 25
mm drywall screws, or TN 3.5 x 35 mm
for a timber substructure, spaced 170
mm apart.
Fill joints using fibreglass joint tape.
Fill joints between SmartBoards and
other structural members using
separating tape (e.g. Knauf Trenn-Fix
65) and joint compound or acrylate.
