Advertorial STEEL FRAMING THAT ADJUSTS BECAUSE INTERNAL STRUCTURES ARE NEVER SQUARE 26 www.thefis.org The advantages of steel – and solving that inflexible headache Steel framing systems (SFS) for interior fit-outs has many benefits – it is fast to assemble, maneuverable, lightweight and fire resistant. These qualities make it an increasingly popular choice for commercial and residential projects. But it does come with one particular challenge. While SFS is highly precise, internal spaces are generally not – so time gets lost during the installation process with constant measuring, cutting, and snipping of components to fit. This issue also adds extra site disruption and wastage. X-TENDA™ 3600: SFS that fits, no matter what The Howick X-TENDA™ 3600 solves that costly problem for the interiors industry with a breakthrough innovation: a steel roll-forming system that produces telescopic framing for interior walls and ceilings. With this smart framing system, you can quickly assemble non load-bearing panels to fit any uneven or non level space, but with windows and door frames that remain true to size. The system works using three basic components: a C stud, R stud and U track. Because the R stud is slightly smaller in the web and flange, it can slide inside the standard C stud, offering a precise range of adjustment. Each component is produced using BIM technology and is ready for assembly with pinpoint accurate punching and fixing holes. This feature ensures fixings are self- locating, saving time and improving site efficiency. Changing the shape of interior installs This innovation can save you 50% or more time on installs and opens up a world of possibilities for interior installers, including: Easy assembly Complete panels can be assembled in the factory or onsite in minutes – with 100% confidence panels will fit the space required. Easy transportation Panels are lightweight and can be compressed – so they can be transported in contractor vehicles and then carried up elevators or moved around tight spaces. Greater productivity A team of two installers can assemble panels, move them into place, and frame up a wall in half the time or faster than traditional methods. Perfect fit every time Panels can extend outward and upward to fit any uneven or non level space. It will even accommodate changes to the area after the pre-install measure, such as an uneven floor. True window and door spaces Within the frame, doors and window sections remain perfectly square. Soffit panels can be screwed into the ceiling and pulled down to a laser line level with the floor below. Panels can also be multi-axis to allow for any angle. Eliminate waste and disturbance Because there is no need for measuring, snipping or cutting onsite, the X-TENDA™ 3600 panels mean less wastage and no excess framing to remove at the end of the job – saving on time, labour and materials. The future of interior framing is underway Developed by Howi ck Ltd, X-TENDA™ 3600 framing has already been successfully installed in major projects such as shopping centres, hotels, and restoration work across New Ze aland, Australia and North America.

Advertorial www.thefis.org 15 Knauf Airless Spray Finishes offer a host of advantages for contractors. T HE principle behind spray finishes is simple: replace traditional hand-applied gypsum plaster with a simple-to-use spray finish applied directly to smooth surfaces such as plasterboard. The speed of application means that large areas are covered in a fraction of the time with the smooth finish needing less levelling and sanding after application. Site exp rience sugge t that using a pray finish can knock two thirds off the time needed to finish interior walls. Knauf has been at the heart of developing high quali y spray finishes and provides the training and back-up to introduce newcomers to the systems. Knauf Airless is applied using an Airless piston-pump machine – available for hire or purchase. The fi ish itself is made from crushed marble that is delivered ready-mixed. Th combination of no o -site mixi g a d l ss sanding results in far less dust being produced on site, giving a much cleaner and safer environment to work in. Changing is easy It’s a radical change, but contractors who have us d the system express surprise at how easy it is to adopt. James Evans, Director of Spray Pro Ltd, is typical: “We recently used Knauf Airless for the first time on a project in Mayfair. It is honestly one of the best we have used – it certainly rovides a smoother finish and a clea er look. We have had to do a lot less s ndi g a d it simply dries a lot smoother. Knauf is efinitely the way forward for us as a company.” The system was also specified for use throughout the interior of a £7m apartm nt building in Putney, South West London. The specification was made by main contractor Wates, primarily for the speed and ease of use. For subcontractors ASH Drywall, it was a first, so training provided by Knauf, both at its Sittingb urne training centre and on site was an essential part of the service. Early reservations about using an entirely new systemwere completely overturned and having completed this initial project ASH Drywall indicated that the company will be happy to tend r with this product in the future. Environmental gains For Tom Hooper-Smith, Project Manager for Wates Construction, the environmental benefits of the system were significant reasons for specification. “Knauf Airless Ready-Mixed Finish produces little dust during applicati n, as little or no sanding is required, meaning that the environment is safer and more comfortable for site workers. “The cherry on the top has to be that there is no waste from the product – any unused excess can be scraped b ck into the hopper – s it is both ecological and economical. It’s a win-win. I really do think it’s the way forward.” Tried, tested and approved by many specialist contractors, Knauf Airless Finish is fast becoming a first port of call for those looking for a consistent alternative to conventional plastering systems.
