MEGAPAN® WALL CONSTRUCTION
Distances of structures and distances and under consumption of fasteners
Center to center distance of the substructure

Distances and use of fixings for wall constructions

Under construction for walls and ceilings can be metal or wood
The Megapan® sheets without pre-drilling directly on a supporting structure of metal attached with self-tapping, retractable corrosion resistant screws. The screw should be 0.5 mm in the surface of the panel sink.
The center to center distance of the metal style profiles is for a 10 mm to 600 mm Megapan®. First, the U-shaped edge profiles in the lead and line in the direction confirmed by nail plugs or plugs with screws.
Then the C-sections, which should be cut slightly shorter than the actual height, mounted. The C-profiles are 15 mm in the lower rows to be inserted. The C-section should be complete at the bottom of the bottom line.
It is not permitted in the C-profile mechanically fixed to the U-profile. When the first side wall plated, the exact location of the C-profiles are determined.
Depending on the specific requirements of fire resistance, acoustics, stability, etc ... can contain variations as there are, self-adhesive insulating tape, larger U and C-sections, two upright walls, single or double plating, insulation ...
When mounted on a wooden structure, one can either screws or staples. Again, the distance between the vertical lines up to 600 mm for 10 mm Megapan®. Here also contain variations depending on the specific requirements of fire resistance, acoustics, stability etc. ..
The attachment of the diaphragm to the C-sections (plates, only the C-profiles are fixed and not on the U-profiles) or wooden rules should be performed Drywall screws or staples. The longitudinal seams of the Megapan® sheets are only plated with walls facing each other are the same style.

With dual panels, the outer plate layer staggered relative to the inner layer to be applied.
The Megapan® sheets are normally vertical to the supporting structure to be installed.
The record length should match the height of the space minus the top and bottom joint. Horizontal joints should be avoided. If this view is not structurally possible, the joints between each record at least 200 mm long jump.
Cross joints are not allowed.
The screws and staples should be kept to 0.5 mm in the plate surface sink. Always confirm the plates from the middle of the plate to the outer side or edge of a continuous sheet to the other edge.
Never start with the board to confirm from the corners!
The distance of the screw or staple the edges of the plate is at least 15 mm and 50 mm of the corners.
