Technical Specifications
- Mounting of the support metal studs in galvanized steel, insertion of STIFERITE GTE panels.
(alternative: STIFERITE GT - STIFERITE Class S - STIFERITE AI4 Edilizia) - Positioning and fixing of the of the plasterboards (drywall) using self-threading drywall screws.
- Taping of the plasterboards’ joints, reinforcement of the corners with corner beads and taping of the corners.
- Mudding of the plasterboards’ joints, corners and drywall screws, followed by the finishing process of the plasterboards’ joints and corners.
Instructions and Guidelines
The galvanized metal studs can be installed directly to the wall in distances corresponding to the insulation panel or an independent metal stud portable frame may be build and used stand alone. In either case, verify that the walls are straight (for correct installation) and that the proper installation components used.
The permeability of vapor of the structure, may be determined based on the specific need, by the use of panels with facers permeable or impermeable to vapor.
When using panels with vapor impermeable facers, we suggest sealing the joints with adhesive aluminium tape in butyl rubber, in order to guarantee the continuity of the vapor barrier.
The tables indicate the suggested thickness of Stiferite’s panels based on
- Climate Zones
- Current legislative set limits of thermal transmittance
- And the following composition of the structure:
