In modern construction, new materials and production technologies are constantly appearing. At the same time, the builders themselves adapt this or that type of equipment, intended for specific purposes, as a component for a completely different type of installation. One of such materials is a gypsum plasterboard profile.
Design and purpose
This type of material is a kind of profile pipe made of galvanized steel and having a rectangular view from the end. The finished element of this type has a relatively low weight and is intended for the installation of drywall. It is worth noting that the PS strut profile allows you to fasten the sheathing material to it using self-tapping screws at a time when it can not only be part of the structure, but also be attached directly to the wall with the help of special material.
Sheathing
This type of work for this material is considered the main. It was for these purposes that it was developed, including additional hardware and related parts. At the same time, the rack profile was so liked by the masters that they began to use it when lining the clapboard and even when using a metal profile. That is why for this type of work it is used almost everywhere.
Fabrication of structures
This type of work is also the main function of the profile. Although it was developed for the manufacture of room partitions and small walls. Today, the rack profile is used to create any building structures, from the most ordinary ducts for communications and ending with complex ceiling shapes of different levels of complexity.
Additional applications
Due to its properties, this type of material is widely used by builders for other processes. Plasterers use it as guiding structures that are temporarily attached to the wall. Tilers also use a rack profile to set an initial elevation. Taking it by the initial mark, it is very convenient to do the job without fear of the tiles sliding down. In fact, at any stage of construction and finishing, craftsmen find application for these profiles, since their price is sometimes lower than the cost of other materials, and their low weight allows you to create lightweight and reliable structures. At the same time, the rack profile tolerates environmental influences and sudden temperature changes very well. Therefore, it can be used even for outdoor work and in various climatic conditions.
conclusions
Thus, the profile of this type is widely used in modern construction. Due to its qualities, it completely replaced ordinary wooden slats from the industry , which not only loosened over time, but also poorly tolerated the external effects of moisture. Also, this material is environmentally friendly and does not cause environmental pollution, which gives it an additional advantage among a large number of modern building materials.
