al W l Finishes P R E PAR E D B Y : GROUP 1 REPORTERS Riacel Belleza Alexis Grace Francisco Jelly Joy Delica Desiree Lorica Sherlyn Sesaldo Wall Finishes Introduction Types and Methods of Wall Wall Finishes Today, we’ll explore the fascinating world of wall finishes. Wall finishes are essential elements in interior design, influencing both the aesthetics and functionality of a space. From traditional options like paint and wallpaper to innovative materials such as textured plaster and wood paneling, each finish adds unique character and texture to a room. We’ll discuss the various types, their benefits, and how to choose the right finish for your project. Let’s dive in and discover how wall finishes can transform any environment! USE OF WALL FINISHES Aesthetic Enhancement Durability and Protection Acoustic Control/ Soundproofing Thermal Insulation Easy Maintenance Highlighting Architectural Features Stonework This refers to any construction or structure made primarily of stone. The stones can be cut, shaped, or simply stacked together to form walls, floors, or other elements. Gerente General Brickwork Similar to stonework, brickwork is a construction method that uses bricks as the main building material. Bricks are typically made from clay and are fired in a kiln to harden. They are then laid in rows, often with mortar between them, to create walls, arches, and other structures. Gerente General Blockwork This phrase is a bit ambiguous and could have a few different meanings depending on the context. One possibility is that it refers to a specific type of construction where large, pre-made blocks are used instead of individual stones or bricks. These blocks can be made from various materials, such as concrete or cinder blocks. Another interpretation could be that it simply indicates that the construction is currently in the stage of laying blocks, suggesting that Gerente General the project is still ongoing Cavity Walls a type of wall that has an airspace between the outer face and the inner, usually structural, construction. The skins typically are masonry, such as brick or cinder block. Gerente General Cavity Wall Opening in Walls Opening in wall creates an opening in a concrete wall of adjustable size, shape and position. Can also add an insulation panel to the wall. Gerente General Access Light Good appearance Ventilation (air) Jambs They are the vertical sides of openings. Reveal It is the vertical face of an opening for a window or door way between the frame and the outside face of a wall. Threshold A threshold is a piece of timber, concrete or stone beneath a door opening. Sill or cill It is the lowest horizontal member beneath a window used to shed off rain water from an opening. Soffit It is underside of a lintel. A lintel is a member placed over opening to support the weight of the wall over the opening. Arches These are arrangements of wedge-shaped bricks called voussoirs, which are designed to support each other and carry the load over the opening round a curved profile to abutments on either side. An exception to this form is the flat or ‘soldier’ arch constructed of bricks laid on endor on edge Gerente General Rough Arches Gauges Arches Wall Cladding There are many types of wall finishes, but cladding is one of the most common and popular. When choosing this type of finish for your walls, you can opt for various types of stones. These materials include granite, marble, glazed tiles, or vitrified tiles. Stones and tiles are best Gerente General suited for particular room in your house. Types of Cladding Fiber Cement Stone Cladding Brick Cladding Vinyl Cladding Cladding Stainless Steel Aluminum Laminate Wooden Cladding Cladding Cladding Cladding Plastering is a process used to create a smooth, durable finish on walls and ceilings. It involves applying a mixture of plaster, which can be made from materials like gypsum, lime, or cement, to the surface. The plaster can be applied in multiple layers, depending on the desired thickness and finish PLASTERING Purpose Protection Smooth Finish Aesthetic Appeal Fire Resistant Durability PLASTERING Layer In plastering, the number of layers applied depends on the type of finish and the surface being plastered. Typically, plastering involves either two or three layers: Two-Coat Plastering (Most Common): Scratch Coat Finish Coat Three-Coat Plastering (For Higher Quality or Thicker Walls): Scratch Coat Brown Coat or Floating Coat Finish Coat PLASTERING Different Types There are several types of plastering methods, each designed for specific applications and finishes. Lime Plaster Cement Plaster Gypsum Plaster Clay Plaster Stucco Plaster Waterproof Plaster (Polymer-Based) Acoustic Plaster Lime Plaster is a type of plaster made from a mixture of lime, sand, and water. It has been used for centuries in construction and is valued for its breathability, flexibility, and environmental friendliness. Cement Plaster is a type of plaster made from a mixture of cement, sand, and water. It is applied to both interior and exterior walls to create a smooth or textured finish. Cement plaster is commonly used in construction due to its strength, durability, and resistance to moisture. Gypsum Plaster is a type of plaster made from gypsum, a soft sulfate mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate. It is used to provide a smooth finish to interior walls and ceilings. Gypsum plaster is mixed with water to form a paste and then applied directly to surfaces such as brick, blockwork, or drywall. Clay Plaster is a natural plaster made from a mixture of clay, sand, and water, often with the addition of natural fibers like straw or hemp for extra strength. It has been used for centuries in traditional and eco- friendly construction due to its sustainability and non-toxic properties. Clay plaster is applied to walls to create a textured, earthy finish, and it is especially valued in natural building techniques Stucco Plaster is a type of decorative plaster made from a mixture of cement, sand, lime, and water, often used on the exterior walls of buildings. It is applied in multiple layers to create a durable, textured, and weather-resistant finish. Stucco plaster has been used for centuries in various architectural styles, from Mediterranean to modern designs, and it can be molded into decorative shapes, adding artistic elements to walls. Waterproof Plaster (Polymer- Based) is a type of plaster that incorporates polymers or other waterproofing agents into its composition, typically made from a blend of cement, sand, and polymer additives. These polymers enhance the plaster's ability to resist moisture, making it ideal for use in areas exposed to water or high humidity Acoustic Plaster is a special type of plaster designed to absorb sound and reduce noise levels in a room or building. Acoustic plaster typically contains materials like mineral wool, perlite, or vermiculite, which help absorb sound waves, making it an ideal choice for spaces that require sound management. is the process of applying a protective and decorative coating to the exterior walls of a building. It involves covering the outer surface of walls (typically made of brick, concrete, or blockwork) with a mixture of materials like cement, lime, sand, or polymers to create a smooth or textured finish EXTERNAL RENDERING Purpose Protection Insulation Aesthetic Appeal Durability EXTERNAL RENDERING Different Types Cement Render Lime Render Acrylic Render Silicone Render Cement Render is a protective and decorative coating applied to the exterior walls of buildings, made from a mixture of cement, sand, and water. It serves to protect the outer surface of walls from environmental factors like rain, wind, and temperature changes, while also improving the appearance of the building. Lime Render is a traditional building material used for finishing the exterior of walls. It consists mainly of lime, sand, and water, and sometimes includes additives for enhanced properties. Acrylic Render is a modern finishing material used for the exterior of buildings. It is made from a mixture of acrylic resins and other additives, providing a durable, flexible, and weather-resistant finish. Silicone Render is a type of finishing material that combines silicone resins with other components to create a durable, weather-resistant, and breathable surface for buildings. DRYLINING Technique What is Drylining Technique? Drylining is a type of wall construction technique that involves attaching plasterboard or other forms of sheet material to a wall or ceiling surface. This technique is used to create a smooth and even surface, as well as to insulate and soundproof a room. Drylining is also known as drywall, wallboard, or sheetrock.
