Knauf Plasterboards - General Information

Limitations

Plasterboards are not suitable for areas which are subjected to extremes of temperature and humidity.

Temperatures over 50°C can induce a change of state in the plasterboard which would reduce its physical performance and serviceability.

Humidity over 90% (95% If using Knauf moisture resistant boards) or subjection to excessive moisture will also reduce the serviceability of the plasterboard.

Storage on Site

Plasterboards are supplied on timber bearers. Packs should be lifted with a fork-lift truck and stacked not more than one-high on a flat surface to preserve stability.

They should be stored in a clean dry environment.

Health & Safety

Knauf plasterboards must be handled with care; boards must be carried on their edges. When cutting, ensure adequate ventilation.

Knauf Plasterboards are not classified as hazardous under CHIP2 Regulations 1994 and the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations 1994.

For the latest full Health & Safety datasheets on the specific products, please contact our literature freephone number.

Performance

Fire performance

Gypsum is non-combustible. So, by definition, any of the Knauf plasterboard range is acknowledged to contribute to the fire resistance of the structure in which it is used.

Knauf plasterboards are designated as Class O materials under the Building Regulations 1991, Approved document B. They also meet BS476: Part 6: 1989, with fire propagation index I=12 and under BS476: Part 7: 1987, surface spread of flame, are designated Class 1. Specific Knauf Drywall Systems are fire tested in accordance with BS476: Part 20: 1987.

Acoustic Performance

All Knauf plasterboards offer excellent sound reduction qualities, whether used in drywall systems for ceilings, wall linings, partitions or separating walls. Plasterboard, as a single element, is not normally given a sound reduction figure. Specific Knauf Drywall Systems are tested in full accordance with BS EN ISO 140-3:1995 and the values calculated in accordance with BS EN 717-1:1996

Vapour Performance

Vapour check plasterboards have been tested in accordance with BS3177: 1959 and exceed the minimum requirement of 15MN s/g to meet this standard. 12.5mm Knauf Vapourshield has a water vapour resistance of 78MN s/g.

Sitework

Knauf plasterboards must be installed in full accordance with Knauf’s recommendations and those of BS8212: 1995 and BS8000: Part 8: 1994.

Please note: Minimum order level of £500.00 (ex-VAT) and all deliveries come on 28 ton trucks (large curtain sided lorries).
