eLearnings Finish work and Composite Materials
Overview -Finish work is applicable to all interior surfaces of the building-walls, floors and ceilings -Should be resistant to wear, be cleanable, durable, comfortable and safe to walk on -Ceilings should be relatively maintenance free -Additional factors may include acoustic qualities, fire resistance, thermal insulation and economical value -Colour, textures, pattern control the interior aesthetic of the space Walls Plaster -Made using calcined gypsum and water, fine sand and light weight aggregates -Durable, relatively lightweight, fire resistance, can be used on any wall or ceiling surface that is not subject to moisture

-Lath-plaster base fabricated from expanded metal or of wire fabric-galvanised or coated with rust inhibiting paint for corrosion resistance

Gypsum Board/Plaster board/Drywall -Used for covering walls or as a lath -Sheet of composite concrete surfaced with thin veneer cardboard paper -Large sheets make it economically and time efficient -Monolithic in appearance also essential non load bearing

Engineered Composite Finishes
Plastics-provides a durable, heat and water resistant surface

Timber-Hard surfacing material consisting of superposed layers of kraft paper, foil, printed paper, wood veneers, or fabric spliced with melamine and phenolic resins feud together under heat and pressure:

Brushed Aluminum Light, malleable material, low maintenance-impervious to corrosion, relatively inexpensive

132
Floors Ceramic Tile -Small, modular surfacing units made or clay or other composite materials -Durable, tough, dense -Good in compression -Extremely weak in tension -Glazed or unglazed -In application, a cleavage membrane isolated the mortar bed from damaged or unsuitable backings and allows independent movement of the supporting structure to occur

Adhesion process: Thin-set
• Tile is bonded to a continuous, stable backing with a thin coat of dry set mortar, latex-Portland, epoxy or organic adhesive
• Wet areas require fiberglass backing • Floors suitable are concrete and
double wood
Adhesion process: Thick-set • Tile is applied over a thick bed of
mortar • This allows the natural curvature of
the surface to be retained • Mortar bed is also not affected by
prolonged contact with water • Suitable beds include cured
concrete, plywood

Terrazzo Flooring -Mosaic flooring or paving composed of marble or other stone chips, set in a cementious or
resinous matrix and ground and polished when dried -Dense-extremely durable smooth surface

Wood Flooring -Combines durability and wear resistance with comfort ant and warmth -Both hardwood and softwood are used Plank construction -end and side matched boards that are blind nailed -tongue and gross-interlocking mechanism between the boards

Block construction -composed of square units preassembled at the mill and usually installed with mastic over a wood subfloor or concrete slab -veneers bonded with adhesive

Installation -Requires a wood subfloor for planks -blocks require a flat, dry, clean surface -Should not be installed until structure is enclosed as variation can occur when over
exposed to moisture or exterior conditions -As it is decorative it should be the final part of the construction process

Stone -May consist of sandstone, limestone, polished marble or granite or slate -Laid on a bed of mortar like ceramic tiles

Resilient Flooring This can include but not limited to
• Cork tile, • Rubber tile • Vinyl tile • Lino

Carpeting -Provides both visual and textual softness -Good acoustic qualities -Type largely dependent on aesthetic preferences

Ceiling Acoustic Ceiling tiles -Composite material-lightweight -Porous to maximise sound insulation properties -Easily damaged -Various facing finished such as acrylic or brushed aluminum

Construction -Tiles can be attached with adhesive -Fastened to a furring -Sprayed onto a metal lath-much like shock-crete
ENVS 10003 CONSTRUCTION LOG BOOK
138
Suspended -Suspended from an overhead structure to provide a crawl space for mechanical services -This also provides a small insulation property as an air gap is created -All consist of a grid-making the tiles easily replaceable and easy access to ceiling space from any location
