Gypsum board ceiling keel wooden keel VS light steel keel

Which material is better for gypsum board ceiling keel? Generally speaking, gypsum board ceiling is best matched with wooden keel and light steel keel. At present, these two kinds of keels are widely used in home decoration. This paper introduces how these two kinds of keels are applied to gypsum board ceiling.

Wooden keel is a traditional material in ceiling decoration. Its advantages are that the wooden keel ceiling is affordable, easy to construct, and can be made into any complex shape. When connected with wood products, the deformation coefficient is small, but it is flammable and easy to mold and rot.

As a new building material, light steel has the advantages of light weight, high strength, adaptability to waterproof, shockproof, dustproof, sound insulation, sound absorption, constant temperature, short construction period and simple construction.

Therefore, in home decoration, light steel keel has replaced wooden keel in many cases. This can be seen from the keel materials of the following common ceilings.

Common materials: light steel keel+gypsum board

Suitable style: modern and simple

Common materials: light steel keel+gypsum board

Third, the special-shaped ceiling

Applicable room: normal room height (2.6 meters) can be hung. Due to the limitation of materials, these characters are limited to simple cartoon patterns such as stars and the moon, so they are more common in children's rooms.

Especially because of its simple shape, it still occupies a very important position on the ceiling of the living room: 1. If all ceilings are needed, it is best to use light steel keel gypsum board ceiling in the living room. In addition, if it is a villa, it must be a light steel keel gypsum board ceiling.

2, generally neutral or small living room with wooden keel gypsum board ceiling, because gypsum board ceiling materials are not only cheap, the most important thing is that there are many ceiling styles that can be made. This is just suitable for the decorative and elastic performance of the living room ceiling.

3. Generally speaking, wooden keel is used for local suspended ceiling, especially where modeling is needed.
