FprEN 15303-1:2010 (E) 4 Introduction The properties of gypsum plasterboards make them particularly suitable for use in situations where fire protection, sound and thermal insulation are required. To obtain full advantage of these properties in plasterboard constructions, their design and installation have to be correct.
Following the recommendations for the design and installation given in this European Standard will enable expected performances to be achieved for plasterboard constructions. kSIST FprEN 15303-1:2010

FprEN 15303-1:2010 (E) 6 4 Design 4.1 General Prior to the commencement of the contract there shall be an exchange of pertinent information between all parties concerned. The designer shall include working drawings and specifications, prepared in sufficient detail to afford proper guidance in the preparation of estimates and the execution of the work. When selecting and designing dry lining systems the designer shall take into account the following points: a) the nature and condition of the building elements to which the system will be attached, including any necessary pre-treatment; b) the functional requirements; c) the type of finish/appearance; d) the dimensions required including: 1) the finished widths, heights and thicknesses of the systems; 2) details of the nature of junctions with other building elements and construction details (e.g. doors, windows, ceiling junctions, etc.); 3) the positioning of installations and fittings; 4) any other situations that will affect the choice and design of dry lining systems; e) the preparation of other building elements to provide adequate fixing points for dry lining systems as necessary; f) the work of other trades, particularly concerning services (e.g. pipes, wires, etc.) that are intended to connect with or run within the dry lining system; g) manufacturing and building tolerances that may affect the design of the dry lining system or the elements to which it is joined. The designer shall consider the systems selected for use and the effect this may have on the co-ordination of all trades and the overall building programme. National regulations state certain requirements of dry linings that have to be met. The performance of a dry lining system is determined by calculation or testing in accordance with the relevant European Standards. 4.2 Functions The following are examples of factors that can influence the choice of a dry lining system and shall be considered: a) type of building, occupancy and use; b) dimensions (height, width, thickness) of the system; c) tolerances of background; d) provision for services; e) decoration; f) loadings, to be carried by the system and imposed by the system on the structure; kSIST FprEN 15303-1:2010



FprEN 15303-1:2010 (E) 7 g) exposure to knocks and abrasions; h) space utilisation (optimum use of space); i) temperature and humidity conditions; j) thermal insulation; k) sound insulation; l) fire protection, fire resistance, surface spread of flame, cavity barriers; m) type of construction. It is important that a decision is made as early as possible as a gypsum plasterboard construction is to be constructed as an integral part of the building to take full advantage of the systems available, e.g. non-loadbearing partitions and wall and ceiling linings incorporating thermal and sound insulation. Table 1 summarises the properties of common systems and highlights points to be considered. kSIST FprEN 15303-1:2010

FprEN 15303-1:2010 (E) 9 4.3 Design considerations 4.3.1 Fire protection Consideration shall be given to the fire protection properties of the system, including its components and materials to satisfy current building legislation. Properties may include: a) Reaction to fire The Euroclass of the products used to construct the system is stated by the manufacturer and relevant materials shall be selected to satisfy particular requirements. b) Fire Resistance Where fire resistance is required the designer shall ensure that the system used fulfils the requirement and provides relevant or required documentation thereof. c) Cavity barriers and closures The designer shall consider whether cavity barriers and cavity barrier closures will be required to be installed to resist the spread of smoke and flames in the cavities. d) Fire stopping Fire stopping may be required to seal any imperfection of fit between fire resisting systems and other elements such as adjoining structure or cavity barriers and to seal around any services that may penetrate the system. To maintain an effective seal an adequate allowance shall be made for any differential movement. e) Smoke control Where there is a requirement for smoke control the system shall be imperforate and sealed against the passage of smoke at ambient temperatures at all boundaries, junctions, service and structural penetrations making adequate allowance for all differential movement. 4.3.2 Protection against noise The designer shall consider the sound insulation of systems in conjunction with the purpose and detailed design of the building. Elements in the system construction will have differing effects but the area having the least resistance to the transmission of sound will largely determine the net performance. If sound insulation is important all openings, joints, penetrations and perimeters shall be provided with effective seals. NOTE Figure 1 shows some possible routes of sound transmission within a building. kSIST FprEN 15303-1:2010



FprEN 15303-1:2010 (E) 10
Figure 1 — Possible routes of sound transmission in a building When tested in laboratory conditions, systems will contain no perforations and will be suitably protected against sound transmitted through the surrounding structure. Tests are carried out over a controlled range of frequencies designed to give a good indication of the overall capability of the system in resisting the passage of airborne sound. When the same systems are constructed on site, even with high quality workmanship, it is not possible to perfectly re-create these conditions and their levels of performance may be reduced. In addition to this systems are commonly punctured with holes for the provision of services which again may affect performance. The designer shall consider this when selecting a system from published data. Where sound insulation is an important consideration the system selected shall have a higher rating to allow for this potential drop in performance when constructed on site. In applications where high sound insulation is required and where other onerous conditions may apply (e.g. machinery noise), consideration shall also be given to the performance of the system at lower frequencies. In all cases efforts shall be made to minimise possible "flanking" paths, where direct sound transmission through structural elements may reduce the overall performance of the system. 4.3.3 Thermal insulation Gypsum plasterboard can be used in conjunction with thermal insulating materials to construct energy saving systems. The low thermal capacity of plasterboard systems allows for quick response temperature control. Gypsum plasterboard can be applied to conceal and protect the insulation fixed between framing members to walls, floors and roofs. Care shall be taken in the selection and position of insulating materials, taking into account the amount of heating to be provided, the provision of adequate ventilation and the permeability of the structure and its components. Every effort shall be made to avoid cold bridging. See EN 12664 for methods of calculating thermal transmittance values. Thermal transmittance is not normally an important property of a partition. However there are situations where this property shall be considered. kSIST FprEN 15303-1:2010



FprEN 15303-1:2010 (E) 11 Examples include: a) partitions between different occupancies; b) partitions between heated and unheated areas, e.g. adjacent to unheated corridors. Where services are run within or through a partition, their installation shall not be allowed to lower the thermal insulation required of the partition. Systems using gypsum plasterboards shall not be subjected to temperature conditions where the surface of the board is likely to rise above 45 °C. 4.3.4 Mechanical resistance and stability 4.3.4.1 Loading imposed by the system Dry lining system loadings are distributed to the adjacent supporting structures. The designer should ensure that no
