MODULE 2
PARTITION WALL
Prageeja.K

2

Partition walls
 Load bearing or non load bearing.
 Load bearing wall is called an internal wall
 Requirements :
 Strong-to carry its own load
 Resist impact
 Stable and strong to support wall fixtures.
 Thin and light
 Sound barrier
 Fire resistant

3

Types of partition walls
 Timber partitions
 Metal partitions
 Brick partitions
 Clay block partitions
 Concrete partitions
 Glass partitions
 Asbestos sheet or GI sheet partitions
 Metal lath

4

Timber partitions
 wooden framework either supported on the floor
below or by side walls.
 The framework consists of a rigid arrangement of
timber members which may be plastered or covered
with boarding etc from both the sides.
 not fire-resistant

5

Brick partitions
 Plain brick partitions
 Reinforced brick partitions
 Brick nogging partitions

6

Plain brick partitions:
Half brick thick
stretcher bond
Wall plastered on both side
Strong and fire resistant.

7

 Reinforced brick partitions:
 Stronger
 To carry more loads
 Meshed reinforcement – bricktor provided at every
third course.

8

Brick Nogging partitions:
 brickwork built within a framework of wooden
members.
 vertical posts called studs spaced at 60 cm to 150 cm
apart .
 The nogging pieces are housed into the studs at 60
cm to 90cm apart vertically.
 10cm thick partition wall, the studs and nogging
should be 15 cm wide so that after the brickwork is
plastered from both the faces

Partition wall

10

Clay block partition walls
 Hollow blocks
moulded from clay,
terracotta .
 walls are light, rigid,
economical, strong
and fire resistant.
 Thickness :6 cm to
15 cm

11

Concrete partitions:
 cast in situ or built from panels or blocks, precast
wall.
 cast in situ walls, 10 cm thick and below, the
reinforcement consisting of mild steel bars placed
in the centre of the wall thickness.
 Concrete mix 1:2:4

12

 Precast concrete partition
walls:
 The slabs are 32 mm thick
and are inserted in the
grooves of the precast post
and the joints are
subsequently filled with
mortar.

13

Glass partitions: Glass sheets or hollow blocks
 Glass sheets:
 Wooden frame work –glass
sheets are fixed into it.
 Timber beading.
 Light weight, sound proof
and damp proof.

14

Glass partitions: hollow block
 Translucent units of glass.
 Sqaure:14cmx14cm or 19cm
x19cm
 Thickness 10cm.
 reduce thermal and sound
transmission.
 glass block are not used as load-
bearing walls.
 Laid in cement lime mortar
(1:1:4).

15

Anchors and vinyl stack material for wall assembly.
lock walls are tied into surrounding wall(s) using panel anchors or vinyl stack anchors
every 3rd course

16

Asbestos sheet or GI sheet Partitions
 These walls are economical,
light and fairly rigid if
constructed properly.
 Fixed to frame of wood or
steel.
 Each slab consists of core or
corrugated asbestos cement
sheet(5mm) with the plain
asbestos cement sheet
(10mm) attached to it on
either side.

17

Metal lath and plaster partitions
 thin, strong, durable and is
considerably fire resistant.
 requires a framework of steel
or timber for the purpose of
fixing it in position.
 lath is generally tied by
galvanized iron wire to mild
steel bars or channels spaced
15 to 30 cm apart.
 Plastered on both sides

18

Metal lath and plaster partitions
 improved insulation
against heat and
sound.
 metal lath and plaster
partition walls-cavity.
 metal lath on both
sides of specially
shaped steel channels
spaced at 30 to 45 cm
apart.
 channels are generally
3 to 10cm deep.

19

Steel Partitions
Studs (6.25 cm to 9cm)
 “C” shaped channels installed
vertically, usually 40cm.
Steel track :“U” (6.25 to 9cm)
shaped channels installed to
ceilings and floor to hold studs.

20

securing to ceiling joists with
1 1/4” drywall screws. Install
track at floor

21

framing door & window openings

22

Install drywall wall panels
 Typically start at a corner or intersection.
 Avoid joints on both sides of the same stud.
 Secure panels to studs with drywall screws
