INSTALLATION 1 From a fixed point mark out the line of partition. Fix GTEC U Track to timber or concrete floor along the setting out line of the partition at 600mm centres using suitable fixings. If applying the GTEC U Tracks direct to new concrete which has not completely dried out, a damp proofing membrane should be used. Note: A timber sole plate maybe required on uneven floors or when installed prior to screed being laid. 2 Cut the GTEC U Track (and GTEC C Studs) to length as necessary using tin snips. GTEC C Studs to be cut 5mm shorter than floor to ceiling height. 3 Install a GTEC C Stud, using a spirit level to plumb on end wall; screw fix at 600mm centres using suitable fixings. Note: Fix opposite end wall GTEC C Stud only after ceiling GTEC U Track has been installed. 28 THE INSTALLATION HANDBOOK 2008
4 Place the ceiling GTEC U Track onto end wall GTEC C Stud. Using a GTEC C Stud and spirit level, plumb opposite end of the ceiling GTEC U Track with the floor GTEC U Track and screw-fix into position at 600mm centres. Fix the remaining end wall GTEC C Stud. 5 Mark the floor and ceiling at centres as specified below for the location of intermediate GTEC C Studs: At max. 400mm centres for 9.5mm plasterboard or 600mm centres for 12.5 mm plasterboard. Arrange the framing so that plasterboard widths of less than 300mm are avoided. See step 9 for installation of intermediate studs. 6 Use extra GTEC C Studs at openings, corners, T junctions and stop ends as shown in the details. <strong>The</strong>se extra studs must be fixed to head and floor GTEC U Tracks with GTEC Wafer Head Self Tapping screws or crimping tool. Note: <strong>The</strong> door frame background metal construction details shown above, form one of three possible alternatives. THE INSTALLATION HANDBOOK 2008 29
