Drywall construction combination profiled section for walls and ceilings of a house
10865561 · 2020-12-15 ·

A wall construction system having drywall construction combination profiled sections, and a method for constructing a wall. Standard drywall construction profiled sections using sheet metal that is approximately 0.6 mm thick allow easy manual sheathing of stud walls with building panels, but lightweight sheet metal profiled sections of this type are not suitable for bearing static loads of a house. Thicker walled lightweight steel profiled sections greatly improve stability but require more costly assembly technologies needing specialists, which increases construction costs and therefore stops drywall-constructed housing from becoming more widespread. The new combination profiled sections provide for statically stable construction systems that can nevertheless be worked and sheathed simply and easily. The present drywall construction combination profiled section includes two functional sections. A statically stable section which has splayed flanges, and a section having a planar thin-walled drywall construction contact surface, acting as a sheathing section.
