Training
Knauf Training Academy has purposely been developed to offer a variety of courses that provide practical training on the design and construction of plasterboard systems. Training also improves the safety on site and helps companies compete more effectively. Take advantage of earning hands-on experience whilst under the guidance of a Knauf training specialist. The courses that we offer include partitions, wall linings, shaftwalls and suspended ceilings. Training is also provided on tape & jointing (hand application).The main aim of these courses is to provide knowledge and an understanding on the installation and the key purpose of Knauf drywall systems. Also we want to ensure that all trainees have full confidence in their ability when either proposing a Knauf system or constructing a system on-site. Knauf Training will also give you a better understanding of the products that we offer in the market, and allow you to understand what products are needed to assemble a Knauf system correctly and professionally. With the growing pressure & expectations of developers for fast and professionally constructed work, you can be sure with the knowledge & guidance of Knauf expert trainers you will be on the road to perfection. The Key Advantages of Knauf Training:n Improve efficiency n Reduce wastage of materials n Learn proper application methods n Faster installation time n Practice in the use of high-end drywall toolsn Ensure successful delivery of projects

Installation steps
Insert timber battens within Knauf ‘C’ Studs to provide fixing for door frame (if required).
Snip and bend back Knauf ‘U’ Channel for extra rigidity around door openings.
3 Twisting Knauf ‘C’ Stud into position.
Snip and bend back Knauf Deep Flange ‘U’ Channel to form the door frame.
Fixing Knauf Plasterboard to the completed framework.
Fixing Knauf Deep Flange ‘U’ Channel to form perimeter framing
After fixing the head track, the floor track should be positioned by using a vertical stud and a laser / spirit level.
Fixing Knauf ‘C’ Stud to form the position frame abutment.

General requirements
Control jointsn At maximum 15 mn At all control / expansion joints present in the structuren At any change in the substrate material
Jointingn Jointing should be done with joint compound Knauf Readygips and Knauf Joint Tape n On double layer partitions, jointing can be done only for the upper layer
Connections sealing n For acoustic requirements, seal the perimeter connections with acoustical sealant
Fire penetration n Use approved fire penetration details and sealants.
n Power sockets, switch sockets, splitter sockets etc. are allowed to be installed at any position. n In systems with sound requirements, do not install power sockets opposite to each other n Electrical socket boxes can be formed by using punching tools n For fire rated systems, the socket must be fire rated with minimum the same fire rating as the partition. n Use tested and certificated putty pads for sockets in fire rated systems.
n M&E cabling can be inserted through Knauf CW studs n Insulation materials such as stone wool, glass wool, EPS should be planted within the CW studs.n The insulation can be fixed either friction fit or fixed securely by other means.n Once the insulation + cabling work is finished, the board on the other side of partition should be cladded

Fixingn Knauf Boards should be fixed vertically on the metal stud frameworkn Boards should never touch the floor. Approximately 1.5cm of gap should be left at the floor connection when fixing boardsn The gap should be filled with sealant or masticn Vertical edges should be staggered by 600mm. Horizontal edges should be staggered by at least 300 mm. Both joints (horizontal and vertical) on opposite side of partition should be staggeredn For multi-layer cladding, second layer should be staggered both horizontally and vertically

Wet bending 1. Put the cut-to-length Knauf boards on a grid made of channels or similar with the side to be compressed on top (to ensure that excess water can drip off) 2. Perforate the board laterally and longitudinally with a spiked roller 3. Wet the board by spraying or use a lambskin roller and allow it to settle for a few minutes. Repeat the process until saturation is achieved and allow the excessive water to drain 4. Place the board on the prepared template, bend and fix the board with adhesive tape and allow to dry

Coatings and linings
n Board surface should be cleaned of materials such as dust, oil etc.n Filling and covering of joints should only take place after the boards have been allowed to rest in the given humidity and temperature zones, and no more longitudinal changes can be expected, i.e. expansion or contraction.n In case of mastic asphalt screed, fill in joints after screed has been applied.n First coat of Knauf Joint filler should be applied with tools of sufficient width to extend a minimum 50 mm beyond both sides of the centre of the joint (100 mm width).n Knauf Joint Tape should be embedded into the joint filler to reinforce the joint between two gypsum boardsn Once the first coat has dried, a second coat of Knauf Joint filler should be applied with 100 mm width on both sides of the centre of the joint tape (200 mm width).n A very thin third coat of Knauf Joint filler should be applied with a minimum width no less than 150 mm beyond both sides of the centre of the joint tape (300 mm width).n Once third coat has dried, surface should be sanded and smoothedn Knauf Corner Bead should be used for exterior corner reinforcementsn Alternatively Knauf Alux Corner Tape can be used to reinforce interior or exterior corners
Joint treatment
Pre-treatmentBefore further linings (wallpaper) are applied, the surface must be free of dust and pretreated according to lining manufacturer.
Suitable coatings and liningsWallpaper (paper, non woven, textile and synthetic wallpapers), ceramic tiles*, plasters (full surface thin plaster coatings), coatings (emulsion based paints, emulsion based silicate paints) * When cladding tiles on a single layer partition, reduce stud spacing to 400 mm
Unsuitable coatingsAlkaline coats such as lime based paints, silicate based paint and pure silicate paints are not suitable to be applied on gypsum boards. Gypsum board paper surfaces that have constantly been exposed to light without any protection can develop yellowing agents that show up despite a coat of paint. Therefore, a trial coat is recommended that will extend across several boards including all joints. Yellowing can, however, be successfully avoided only by using a special shielding primer.

Knauf Acoustical Sealant
Knauf Acoustical Sealant is a pasty dispersion bound compound for the use of high performance fire and acoustic rated partition systems.
Knauf Plastic Plugs Screw is to be used together with Plastic Plug for fixing the perimeter runners and studs on solid walls.
Hammer Fixings
Hammer Fixings are light duty fixings which have a special thread lock design that prevents pre-expansion during transit installation and provides an option for faster fixing without screwdriver work. Both sizes are suitable for perimeter fixings for both partitions and ceilings. In addition to that, 8 x 45 mm is perfectly suitable with universal bracket in wall claddings. Hammer fixings are faster alternatives to the Plastic plug and Plastic plug screw.

Wedge Anchor
Wedge Anchor is a very easy-to-apply accessory which can be used as a alternative solution to Plastic Plug & Screw in terms of fire rated partitions.
Driva Plus Self Drilling Metal Plug
Driva Plus with screw requires no drilling and can be screwed simply on the partitions for standard loads.
Cavity Fixings
Cavity fixing is used for superior loads on partitions and its design enables that the fixtures can be removed and refitted.
Concrete Screwbolt
Concrete Screwbolt is a non-expansion bolt with undercut technology for fixing into wood, brick, cracked or non-cracked concrete and it is a high performance bolt that cuts its own thread. It suits perimeter fixings, to some details of Fire Resistant partition and is specific for Head of Wall connections.
