The gypsum block consists of plaster of paris or synthetic plaster. According to several technologies, the block hole is filled with foam inserts. According to other technologies, the blocks are filled with an insulating material, this is foamed gypsum. It is filled with it precisely during masonry. Thanks to gypsum blocks, it is possible to erect external walls and load-bearing internal ones. The width of such walls is equal to the width of the elements used. In places with an air humidity of more than seventy percent, it is not recommended to use gypsum blocks..
Most people don’t trust walls that are made of gypsum blocks at all. They do not trust, because due to the effect of moisture, their strength is well reduced. By the way, when carrying out apartment renovations in Rostov, builders first start with wall repairs using drywall.
When building walls from a gypsum block, you need to follow some rules.
1) If immediately after the construction of the wall it is not planned to plaster it, then you need to protect the wall with a special hygroscopic solution from the outside.
2) The house must have cornices. The eaves should protrude at least four inches from the face of the wall. There must also be external window sills with an appropriate width. They should protrude not less than 0.7 dm.
3) The gypsum block wall should extend at least 0.3 dm from the front plinth and should not have architectural elements.
As the two or three layers of gypsum blocks are laid, the channels must be filled with insulating material..
