    This document discusses different types of partition walls used in building construction, including timber stud partitions, metal stud partitions, drywall partitions, and glass partition walls. Timber stud partitions use wooden studs, sole plates, and noggins covered with plasterboard. Metal stud partitions use lightweight galvanized steel studs covered with plasterboard or fire-resistant sheets. Drywall partitions consist of two plasterboard sheets bonded to a cardboard core for rigidity. Glass partition walls can be made of sheet glass panels in a wooden frame or hollow glass bricks.

    PARTITION WALLS
    A partition wall is a wall for the purpose of separating rooms, or dividing a room. Partition walls are usually not load-bearing. For an office space the following partitions are generally used: Timber stud partitions Metal Stud Partitions

    Timber Stud PARTITIONS


    The figure shows different types of partitioning. Studwork framing/ partitions are commonly known as stud partitioning. This is a partition wall built of timber or metal studs, fixed between a sole and head plate, often incorporating noggins for stiffening and fixing. STUD: A vertical timber or metal member of a partition wall fixed between the sole plate and head plate. The main member of a partition, it provides a fixing for the covering material.

    SOLE PLATE: A horizontal timber fixed above or below studs to provide a fixing point for the studs and ensure an even distribution of loads. NOGGIN: A short horizontal piece of timber fixed between vertical studs of partition. Its use stiffens the studs, provides an intermediate fixing point for the covering material and in addition a fixing point for heavy items which may be hung on the partition (WC, Cistern, Hand Basin etc.)

    Timber Stud PARTITIONS


    Traditionally, timber partitions are formed with various basic wood joints. However, modern techniques call for speed of erection with low labour costs. To facilitate these needs, simple butt joints or framing anchors are used for securing the components of the framework. The timber used is softwood, and the cross-sectional size of the timber is generally 100mm x 50 mm or 75mm x 50mm. The material commonly used as a covering is plasterboard. This sheet material is available in various sized sheets, but the most common sizes are 2.4m x 1.2m or 1.2m x 1.2m with a thickness of 12.5mm. The studs and the noggins of the framework are therefore placed and secured to accommodate these sheet sizes. Sheeting or covering the partition is a simple task, but care must be taken not to mark or damage the sheets when nailing them in place. The sheets are nailed with 30mm galvanised nails at 150mm centres.

    Metal Stud PARTITIONS


    Metal stud partitions are non-load bearing partitions which consist of a framework of metal studding. Metal studding is lightweight but very strong and stable. The framework is usually covered with ordinary plasterboard sheets or special fire-resistant sheets which, when finally sealed, offer good sound and fire resistance to the partition. For that reason, this type of partition is often used in public buildings such as offices and hospitals as it is: Quick and easy to erect. Cost-effective. Suitable for all types of buildings as well as residential housing. Available in a variety of finishes to the completed partition. The framework consists of a range of metal studs and channels, some of which are preslotted to accommodate services such as electric cables and water pipes.

    The frame is fitted together using self-tapping screws, and covering material is fitted in the same manner. If the partition includes a doorway and wood skirting, the frame, architrave and skirting are screwed to the plasterboard and metal studs using long self-tapping screws.

    The metal studs are manufactured from sherardized or galvanised steel sheet folded into various shaped sections which slot into each other. The sections are produced in various lengths ranging from 2.4m to 6m in length and widths ranging from 50mm to146mm.

    Drywall PARTITIONS
    Drywall partitions are also referred to as cellular core partitions. The wall units are pre-made under factory conditions and consist of two sheets of plasterboard bonded to a gridded cellular cardboard core. The sheet units are rigid, yet the cellular structure makes them lightweight. The sheets are available in standard 2.4m x 1.2m sheets with thicknesses of 57mm and 63mm.

    The partition is easily assembled and requires a cill nailed to the floor and a head nailed to the ceiling. Where the partition abuts onto an internal leaf of a cavity wall, a batten is fixed to receive the plasterboard unit which is then screwed to the batten. Where a door opening is required, the sheets are cut to size to the position of the doorway. At the door opening, the core is removed and battens inserted to be flush around all three sides. A door casing is then inserted in the usual way. 13.10

    Glass PARTITION WALLS


    These may be made from sheet glass or hollow glass bricks. a) Glass Sheet Partitions: In case of sheet glass partitions, sheets of glass are fixed in the framework of wooden members dividing the entire area into a number of panels. The panels may be square or rectangular and their size varies with the choice of the individual. Glass partitions are cheap, light, and easy in construction and provide reasonable privacy and sound insulation. The cost of maintenance of such partition is much more as glass is liable to break when struck hard by anything. With the introduction of reinforced glass sheets, this danger is greatly minimized. Threeply glass and armour plate glass are some of the varieties of sheet glass.
