Solid Laminated Partitions<br />
DESCRIPTION<br />
Laminated Partitions have<br />
been developed for use<br />
where sturdy, nonloadbearing<br />
walls are desired.<br />
The total thickness is<br />
nominal 2". 1" Fire-Shield<br />
Shaftliner is used between<br />
face layers of gypsum<br />
board.<br />
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES<br />
A. Fire Resistance. Fire<br />
endurance ratings have<br />
been established by the<br />
following tests:<br />

B. Sound Isolation. An STC<br />
rating of 34 has been<br />
achieved in tests conducted<br />
in accordance<br />
with ASTM E 90.<br />

C. Economical. The laminated<br />
partition offers a substantial<br />
saving in installation time<br />
and subsequently in labor<br />
costs over other types of<br />
solid partitions. The 1"<br />
gypsum core is quickly and<br />
easily installed and the<br />
large sheets of gypsum<br />
board provide a dry finish<br />
surface in minimum time.<br />
LIMITATIONS<br />
The laminated partition is<br />
adapted to any type of<br />
building for nonloadbearing<br />
partitions not<br />
exceeding 12' in height.<br />
Further limitations to height<br />
are based on the partition<br />
length in the table below.<br />
