Is it possible to use wooden keels for suspended ceilings?

Now home decoration ceilings, will use the way to increase the keel to improve the load-bearing of the ceiling. Common keels include wooden keels and light steel keels.

Aluminum alloy keel and steel keel, four keels **, performance, load-bearing are different, are the current mainstream ceiling keel, just suitable for different decoration.

In the process of the ceiling, you can choose whether to use the keel or not, or you can choose a keel at will, mainly according to your own needs. However, while we use wooden keels, we also need to make various plans. After all, each keel has its own shortcomings, which may affect our later lives.

1. The decoration of the wooden keel keel is characterized by increasing the bearing capacity of the ceiling, we install some chandeliers and decorations, which can be directly connected with the keel, without worrying about the damage to the ceiling. Even if it's a gypsum board ceiling.

The weight can also be guaranteed by increasing the keel. The so-called wooden keel is what we call the wood square when we decorate, all of which are made of wood.

In the decoration can be all used wooden keel, this keel is easy to install, ** preferential at the same time, will not cause pollution. In addition, the wooden keel is easy to cut, which is unmatched by other keels. For example, light steel and aluminum alloy, in case you want to do something complicated, it is not so convenient.

2. Disadvantages of wooden keelAlthough wooden keel can be used in decoration, we also have to take into account its shortcomings. We all know that wooden keels are made of wood, and the things that wood is most afraid of are moisture, fire, deformation, and insect damage. Either way, it will affect our future use.

Ceiling in home decoration, safety is very important, in the choice, must choose the most suitable. The wooden keel is only suitable for some families, and we must at least ensure that it will not get wet. If in the south, where it often rains, it is better not to use a wooden keel.

3. Other keelsOther keels also have their own advantages and disadvantages. Light steel keel, light weight, convenient construction, with moisture-proof, fire-proof, shock-proof, sound-absorbing and other effects. The disadvantage is that it cannot be modeled, and it must be with the main keel.

Connected; Aluminum alloy keel, superior in various properties, stronger than light steel, but it also has the disadvantages of light steel, in addition, it is expensive; Steel keel, which can support items of sufficient weight, is rarely used in home decoration.

Yes, but it's best not to use wooden keels, which are less strong and can be dangerous.

Of course, you can, in fact, as long as you want to design it this way, you can set it up to a very perfect situation, and many times you can make decisions manually.

It is also possible to use this kind of wood for the ceiling, which is very easy to use, and it is very strong and lightweight. It's easy to install.

Wooden keel ceiling, in our current decoration, is also no, unfamiliar. Because of its decoration materials, relatively speaking, it is also relatively economical, and it is also quite cost-effective when decorating. But when such decoration materials are constructed, it is also a test of the master's ability.

Let's take a look at it with usWooden keelHow to construct a suspended ceiling? This will help us in our construction.

First, how to construct the wooden keel ceiling.

1. The first step. First, according to the drawing, put a horizontal line on the top of the wall. After that, I use a tape measure on the left and right sides of the top of the wall, and I pay attention to how to do it.

Two points were determined based on the width data of the ceiling, and the width of the ceiling at the top of the wall was determined by using the ink fountain line and the horizontal line as the benchmark. After determining the height of the ceiling above the wall, you can use a percussion drill to drill holes on the horizontal line of the top of the wall, and the size of the drill bit is usually good, and the spacing of the holes should be kept at about 30cm.

2. Step 2. The wooden keel is usually fixed with wooden wedges and nails, and special attention needs to be paid to the vertical force and safety. Because the wooden wedge is subject to dry shrinkage, it is easy to cause the fixation to be not firm.

Wooden wedges are usually made of larch, which has a tight wooden structure and is not easy to loosen. Nail the wooden keel according to the horizontal line at the top of the wall. Then the position of the wooden keel must be nailed, if it is crooked, the entire wooden keel frame will be skewed, and the wooden keel at the top of the wall is a load-bearing surface that needs special attention.

3. The third step, nail the wooden keel frame according to the drawing, and measure whether the ceiling keel is straight again, which is also a method of attention, if it is not straight, it should be modified. The position of the keel must be reasonable, otherwise it will not be good to hit the keel when the spotlight is installed in the future. The sealing veneer must be nailed with drywall nails to prevent the nails from rusting and loosening.

The ceiling is then measured with a building line and adjusted if it is uneven. Two people are required to work together.

Second, what are the materials of the ceiling?

1. The material of the ceiling is. Great Wall board: This material is green and novel, and the gaps are easy to hide dirt, so it is also worth paying attention to.

The Great Wall board is a material made of a combination of a small number of polymer materials and a large number of wood powder, which is very similar to wood in appearance, and has the advantages of moisture-proof, insect-proof and flame retardant. The ceiling made of the Great Wall board is crossed, the width and narrowness are staggered, just like the wall of the Great Wall, and the shape is relatively novel. The market ** is about 120 yuan to 140 yuan square meters.

2. The material of the ceiling is. Sauna board: This material gives natural comfort and is also worth choosing.

But its waterproofness will be almost, the sauna board was originally specially used for the sauna log plank, through high temperature degreasing processing, with heat resistance, not easy to twist the characteristics, in recent years is also often used in the bathroom ceiling, after the installation needs paint to achieve the results of waterproof and anti-corrosion.

3. The material of the ceiling is. Plastic steel plate: Affordable and practical, low-end products.

of careful choice. In the past, the fashionable PVC ceiling should be cheap and colorful to get many people's like, but due to the poor strength of PVC materials and the fast aging speed, it will change color and smile after a long time, and now it has basically been eliminated.

Dear, I'm glad to answer for you: Can you use the wooden keel of the ceiling that has not dried? Answer, can not ceiling wooden keel air drying is very necessary, if the wooden keel of your ceiling is not dry, Zhi Song Qi to do it for him to do not wild sedan chair ventilation after the back of the whole ceiling of the wooden keel is not deformed, and will lead to paint cracking, many ceiling planks cracking is because the sail holds the keel when sitting on it is not dry, resulting in dry after the thermal expansion and contraction.

Wooden keel ceiling construction process:

1. Pay-off to determine the elevation line, take the floor baseline as the starting point, measure the height of the ceiling (plus the thickness of a layer of plates) on the training (column) surface according to the design requirements, and draw the standard business line (as the lower skin line of the ceiling keel) at this point. It can be measured with a level or the "water column method".

2. Before hoisting, the wooden keel should be assembled on the floor (ground), and the assembled area generally does not exceed 10 linings. The method of keel assembly often adopts the bite semi-Zen buckle assembly method. How to do it:

Grooves are made on the keel, the grooves are assembled with bites, and the grooves are glued and fixed with nails.

3. Installation of hanging points, hanging bars commonly used expansion bolts, embedded parts, etc., hanging bars can be used steel bars, angle steel or square wood, hanging points and hanging bars can be welded, lashed, hooked, bolts or screws and other ways to connect.

4. Use a percussion drill to punch holes above the elevation line, and the hole is lined with a wooden wedge, and the keel along the wall is nailed to the wooden wedge.

5. Hang the assembled wooden keel above the elevation line with iron wire, temporarily fix, and pull out several parallel lines and diagonal crossing lines along the ceiling elevation line with rod wire rope or nylon line, subject to this, slowly move the keel to be level with the elevation line, and then connect and fix with the suspension bar. The same method is used to fix the stacked ceiling keel, and the upper and lower two levels of keel are connected.

6. After the whole keel is connected, pull out the diagonal cross line under the bottom surface of the ceiling, check and adjust the flatness of the ceiling, and the arch can be raised when the area is larger, and the arch height is about 1 200 1 3000 of the room span.

7. Use self-tapping screws to nail the paper rib stone blue board on the keel, and it should be noted that the long side of the gypsum board must be vertically crossed with the secondary keel, so that the end edge falls on the second keel. The gypsum board should be installed in a free state, and the solid should be fixed from the four sides of the board in order, and a gap of 6mm should be left between the gypsum board and the cultivation surface.

**Cheap and easy-to-construct wooden keel is a common skeleton material in home decoration, of course, there are not a few home decorations that use wooden keel ceilings. Because the wooden keel is flammable and mildew-prone to decay, there is still a lot more effort to be put into the selection. So, what to look for when buying wooden keel ceilings?

First, the purchase of wooden keel ceiling depends on the dryness.

Because the wooden keel is prone to mold and decay, you must try to choose a dry and humid wooden keel when choosing to buy, otherwise it is very easy to deform and crack in the future.

Second, the purchase of wooden keel ceiling depends on the completeness.

When choosing a wooden keel ceiling, we must look at its integrity, and try to choose a wooden keel with fewer scars and fewer insect eyes, otherwise these places will be very irritating and easy to break in the future, resulting in losses.

Third, the purchase of wooden keel ceiling to see the straightness.

The straight wooden keel is convenient for workers to construct and has a high utilization rate, and the uneven wooden keel is easy to cause structural deformation. Therefore, when choosing a wooden keel ceiling, it should be placed on the plane to see its straightness, and the straight one is the choice.

Fourth, the purchase of wooden keel ceiling depends on the color.

Fresh wood keel is slightly reddish and has a clear texture to choose from, but if its color is dark and matte, it means that it is rotten wood and cannot be used.

Fifth, the purchase of wooden keel ceiling depends on the thickness and thinness.

When choosing a wooden keel ceiling, you can't blindly listen to the introduction of the business, because often the merchant says that the keel is 8cm square, but in fact it is only 6cm square, so you need to measure the thickness of the wooden keel at the purchase site to see if it meets the size of the sock standard you need. Bu quietly.

Sixth, the purchase of wooden keel ceiling depends on the specification.

When selecting the wooden keel, it is necessary to see whether the specifications of the selected wood cross-section meet the requirements, whether the head and tail are smooth and uniform, and cannot be of different sizes.

8. Wooden keel ceiling purchase to see the scar knot.

The wooden keel with fewer and smaller scar knots is the choice, because the scar knots are large and numerous, and the screws and nails will not be screwed in or the wood will be broken at the scar knots, which will easily lead to an unstable structure.

9. Wooden keel ceiling purchase to see the density.

When selecting, you can use your fingernails to pick out, and the dense and deep wooden keel generally has no obvious traces.
