How to create a ceiling for the living room of plasterboard: photo and description of examples of technological processes

The ceiling of plasterboard in the living room with kitchen and dining room

This example will help clarify the potential of this type of constructions:

It is evident that this solution allows you to create perfectly smooth surface of a large area.
In large rooms several layers used to create an attractive appearance. It is useful to refer to the individual functional areas.
Permissible installation of built-in, suspended or hidden in the crevices fixtures.
The speakers are mounted at specific locations of the ceiling to create a uniform sound field. This solution provides the effect of presence in multichannel sound reproduction.
Inside the suspension design leaves room for boxes ventilation systems, Electrical power networks pads transmit information.

Advantages and comparison to other methods of

To maintain objectivity, it is necessary to examine the parameters of drywall with alternative technologies:

This material is inexpensive. The specialty store is not difficult to buy sheets, taking into account the specific features of the terms of reference.
We do not need meticulous preparation of the ceiling. With drywall eliminate even large bumps.
In the trading network can buy a standard component parts to form the carcass of any level of complexity.
Simple assembly operations able to reproduce correctly any person. Basic skills can be mastered with the help of detailed instructions (below).
Damaged areas can be repaired drywall quickly, cost-effectively.
This material is made from environmentally friendly components. During operation, it does not pollute air space. Gypsum does not support combustion. With special additives - lists acquire resistance to elevated humidity.

Traditional plaster ceilings - messy, time-consuming process

For exact alignment with application of this technology requires high skills. To create multiple levels, you still have to install design of the desired shape.

Suspended ceilings have certain advantages. But their strict and too simple look is best suited for office space

Installation of suspended ceilings should be assigned to professionals

Such designs fail to provide surface hardness. The movement of air through aeration and vibration cause unpleasant vibrations for the eyes. attaching point fixtures It is necessary to determine exactly, since it is necessary to pre-install the appropriate mounting.

The plasterboard ceiling lamp can be shifted to increase the diameter of the hole. Permissible replacement of individual plates when the radical modernization

Curly plasterboard ceilings in the photo supplement curved arches. Possibility of working with complex surfaces form - another advantage of the material

Preparatory stage

The framework of multi-level ceiling with built-in part of the ventilation system

The design of the ceiling It can get tricky, so useful preliminary preparation of project documentation. In this photo of the living room ceiling of plasterboard it can be seen that it is necessary to consider features of the installation of engineering networks.

Sketches help clarify the design requirements

In the professional design the dimensions, materials and features of their application

installation of devices space supplement such description. With the help clarify the number of fixtures, the composition and parameters switches.

Tools and materials

In most cases, enough parameters standard sheets. If there are appropriate concerns can be purchased drywall that is resistant to moisture (designated as "gypsum plasterboard" abbreviation).

In accordance with the drawings chosen necessary profiles, hangers, anchors and fasteners

Must be properly prepared to create a high-quality ceiling for the living room of plasterboard. Photo shows only part of the required products. The exact list of purchases will be formed after detailed examination and the choice of technology, taking into account the following observations:

For cutting the sheet in straight lines is sufficient to use a sharp knife stationery. Complex sections operate via jigsaw.
For drills it is necessary to purchase additional tips with serrated edges. They cut holes fixtures.
A lot of screws tighten by hand difficult. It is therefore better to buy dedicated tool with an electric drive.
Also need personal protection: cotton gloves with rubber pads, mask, goggles.
Align the joints and depressions over the heads of screws by means putty solution, Reinforcing the construction tape, sandpaper. It is necessary to prepare in advance consumables suitable for dilution packaging solutions.

assembly algorithm for false ceilings of the hall: photos and step by step instructions

Photo	Sequencing
	From the ceiling, remove the fragile old paint, Plaster. Buried vias. it is not necessary to align the surface.
	The figure shows laser level. Such measuring devices are used by professionals. But for the solution of domestic problems is quite simple means. In a room with a conventional roulette determine the angle with the greatest height. With measurements from the floor marks the point at a distance of 100 mm from the ceiling. Further building level used for drawing lines on a contour of the room.
	Amount of space is corrected based on the deployment an audible and thermal insulation, Engineering systems. If not intended installation of the built fixturesIt is possible to reduce a distance corresponding to 40-60 mm.
	To the ceiling using dowels and anchors attached to the clip in steps of 35-45 cm. They are mounted in a lattice core and bearing profiles. In simple designs sibling cell size is set from 40 to 60 cm in width. To sustain the level of accuracy, a simple device in the form of a solid thread taut.
	First, to the suspension is connected basic profiles, And by him - perpendicular to the rails.
	If you are using a cable in multi-layer insulation, additional protection is required. Permissible gasket networks plastic corrugated pipe. At the points of connection of luminaires leave excess wire about 60-80 cm long.
	Such a plan will help define the cutting parameters. Plate set on a table and make an incision with a knife on the marked line. After a light fracture, the sheet is inverted, is cut from the back side. To remove the rough edges using planer.
	Assembly operations easier to do with an assistant.
	Screws are screwed to a depth of 10 mm or more in the metal profile with a pitch of 90-140 mm, to ensure secure attachment. Sheet retain integrity when the distance from the edge of the installation at least 10-15 mm. Cap approximately 1-2 mm deep into the drywall.
	The joints between the sheets must fall on the profile. After installation pause of about 48 hours. Further putty solution slit obscure slit pressed against reinforcing tape covering it with a mixture of the same construction. After drying sandpaper level the surface.
	holes fixtures created with the use of special nozzles.
	At the final step was removed minute defects on the surface. Further, by appropriate methodology applied topcoat.

Design features ceilings made of plasterboard: Photo of different interiors

This section describes examples of suitable structures. This photo gallery is a beautiful ceiling of plasterboard is useful to clarify the parameters of the project tasks.

A typical design solution, built on a contour lighting, creates the illusion of open space, "facilitate" the visual perception of large parts of structures

If sufficient height is set structure of two or more levels

These solutions are used to create a relief on the ceiling. His presence transforms the overly simple plane in a complex shape that looks appropriate on a large area. At the same time, this technique helps to hide in specially designed fixtures pits. Sometimes it is necessary to apply several layers to mask plating pipeProtruding parts of the structure.

The technology is not different from the mounting techniques discussed above, with the exception of a more complex chassis
