INTRODUCTION This Technical Notebook contains information for the user as suggestions to facilitate the laying and design of the Partition Plastbau® solution. This document does not describe all laying methods, but only some of them, in that the “best” method in the construction site is subjective, and may be changed according to the physical characteristics and dimension of the elements and the safety rules to be complied with. DESCRIPTION This system of formwork for reinforced concrete is made with high density and rigid expanded polystyrene (EPS), 60 cm wide, thickness varying from 6 to 20...

Technical notebook PERIMETER FILLERS FOR FRAMEWORKS The partitions PLASTBAU®, duly taking their thermal insulation and mechanical resistance into account, can be used for perimeter filling frameworks in iron, wood and reinforced concrete. The panels, 14 cm thick, fitted with a 12 cm metal profile visible on the internal side and covered on the outside, in the different thicknesses according to the project stratigraphies up to maximum 20 cm, can be finished at the extrados level with dry finishes, screwed to the panel uprights or to specific frames, or finished with suitable shaving finish, as...

FRAMEWORKS IN REINFORCED CONCRETE The partitions PLASTBAU® are industrially manufactured and their length is the reference measure (it can vary according to the customer requirements, up to 13 m). They are strong and light and they can offer the designer and the layer a wide range of application possibilities. The annexed photos refer to an hotel built on the Garda lake, made with self-standing frameworks in reinforced concrete. As visible the wide openings on the side to access the balconies are closed with frames up to 300 kg. The customer made his decision based on the assembling speed, costs...

External insulation shaving finish Internal counter-wall in plasterboard with rock wool FRAMEWORKS IN IRON Execution speed, yard safety, high performances at convenient costs: that’s what provides for the matching of an iron frame buffered with the partitions PLASTBAU®. As for residential constructions the PLASTBAU® panels allow the customers to freely design the building, with no constraint as for the internal and external finishes. As clear in the photographs, a villa made with iron beams and pillars (Fig. 1) with a Plastbau partitions, 140 mm used for the perimeter filling and the covering...

The partition panels PLASTBAU® used for industrial constructions increase the available design prospects and energy performances of the building, always at competitive costs offering a wider execution flexibility and speed. In the hereinbefore annexed photographs, a commercial building used for handicraft activities where the self-standing frame is made with iron beams and pillars. The intermediate slab in PLASTBAU® Metal, provides for the thermal insulation between floors, the structure consolidation and its strength for industrial loads as well. The covering was made with PLASTBAU® partitions,...
