F18 GIFAfloorRaw material and production / Building biological data

GIFAtec is produced by natural gypsum and a portion FGD-gypsum by admixturing of cellulose fibres made of sorted recycled paper and card-board. The natural gypsum is exploited in an area c. 30 km around the factory in open-cast min-ings. The natural-chemical identical clean FGD gypsum is calcined with the natural gypsum to stucco. The papers are soaked in big tanks. After

processing time they are mixed with processing water and the stucco to a mush. This mush is put on a transport belt, reaching a thickness of c. 2mm by pulling of the surplus water by vacuum-ing. On the forming cylinder it is wounded up to the needed thickness, roughly cut and after a set-ting period dryed in a 12-layer dryer. The GIFAtec large-sized panels are been sanded, shaped in a

format station to become GIFAfloor panels. After priming the top and back side of the panels they are packed on pallets. This kind of production of gypsum fibre material ensures the unique homog-enious density through the whole thickness of the GIFAfloor panel.

Building biological data / Waste disposal

Since March 2003 Knauf Integral GIFAfloor is recommended by awarding certificate by the in-stitute for building biological testing IBR (Institut für Baubiologie Rosenheim).

The eurofins institute Galten (DK) certificated the suitability for interior installation according German institute for building technology (DIBt) approval criteria by undertaking aptitude tests with Knauf Integral GIFAtec according the new European standards.

For GIFAfloor waste the waste disposal code number is 17 08 02 for building material based on gypsum or no. 17 09 04 for mixed building and demolition waste, not polluted by danger-ous materials.

Construction

Knauf Integral GIFAfloor panels are made of Knauf Integral GIFAtec gypsum fibre material in standardized thicknesses of 25, 28, 32 or 38mm. The size of the panels is 1200x600mm with tongue and groove edges to be stuck with Knauf Integral Systemkleber (special glue).For F182 a second layer consists of panels in 13 or 18mm thickness with rebate joints is lain to reduce deflection, as an installation area for e.g. heating pipes or to rise the load bearing capacity or for fire protection reasons.

The second layer is glued holohedral to the first layer and nailed immediately after been posi-tioned. The GIFAfloor panels are laid floating on the height adjustable steel supports. The steel sup-ports have been fixed and levelled to the load bearing raw ceiling.

The system is suitable for floor heating and cool-ing systems. In the cavity all mechanical services could be in-stalled and drywalls could be fixed at any place on the GIFAfloor systems. Drywalls could be installed at any place of the GIFAfloor system while observing the load lim-its.Joints have to be planned according their width, positioning and construction.

Grounding

The ground has to take at least the ultimate loads of the floor system supported by the steel sup-ports. The ground must be dry and solid and free of seperating agents like e.g. bitumen, oil or colors.Insulation materials and bituminous sheetings usually are only with a sufficient load-distributing base able to support hollow floor systems.

The raw floor has to be swept and vacuum cleaned thoroughly and to be primed with e.g. Knauf Estrichgrund F 431.Control joints of the structure of the building have to be placed at the same position of the GIFAfloor FHB.

Mark the positions of the first row of steel sup-ports. Stick the bases of the steel supports with approx. 15g Knauf Integral Stützenkleber (steel support glue PU) to the ground, then adjust them with a laser or with a spirit level with high accu-racy measurement precision.For all edge areas of the GIFAfloor: steel support center distance ≤70mm to the wall.

F18 GIFAfloorConstruction and installation

Treatment of the surface and floor finishing

Movement joints, expansion joints and connec-tion joints of the GIFAfloor must be adopted to the floor finishing.GIFAfloor resists the castors of chairs without supplementary treatment.Prime with Knauf Estrichgrund F431 or with the primer prescribed of the used adhesive system.Fitted carpet without putty, or if necessary jointing with Knauf Uniflott. Thin elastic floor coverings (e.g. PVC, linoleum) only with full area mastic compound (self levelling) Knauf Nivellierspachtel 415, minimum thickness 2mm, after beeing dry to be primed.

Ceramic tiles and natural stone to be fixed with flexible tile adhesives preferably on double-layer systems F182. The prescribed installation guides of the manufactorer of the glue system espe-cially the minimum thickness of the glue for the choosen tile size must be observed. The usage of fleece or woven recommanded by the manu-factorer of the glueing system is possible. If the allowed deflections of GIFAfloor by expected loads are bigger than the possible deflection of the floor covering, additional steps to reduce those deflections have to be planned. For further limitation of these deflections use thicker panels and/or additional supports and/or a second layer of panels.

Protect the GIFAfloor against water e.g. in bath-rooms by using a liquid sealant system (e.g. Knauf Flächendicht / Flächendichtband).Lay parquet flooring as a floating system or thick-ness of the parquet limited to ≤ 2/3 of the thick-ness of the GIFAfloor panels. The installation guides of the manufactorer of the parquet and of the glueing system for the choosen type of par-quet flooring have to be considered. Fluid floor coverings like e.g. epoxy resin floors have to be elastified and, depending on the man-ufacturer, water vapour permeable.Test the bond strength of the floor finish / glueing system (if necessary by usage of a specimen).

Installation

Put edge insulation stripes or foam insulation stripes self-adhesive at the connecting building parts. Put support sheets or insulation sheets self-adhesive on the steel supports, secure thread against loosen using thread sealer.All edge areas of the GIFAfloor half steel support distance (grid 300mm o.c.) or stringers heavy! Second row of steel supports for the first panel to be installed like described before. Cut at least both tongues of the first panel, put it onto the pre-pared steel supports and press against the edge insulation stripes. Cutting of the GIFAfloor panels with e.g. circular saw with a diamond-tipped saw blade and dust

exhaustion system or with e.g. a pendulum jig-saw / assembly band saw with a HM-tipped saw blade. Cut the tongue of the second and the fol-lowing panels of the first row.Put Systemkleber into the groove of the located panel and onto the tongue of the panel to be laid. Put the panels together butt jointed immediately in true alignment.Second and the following rows of panels to be installed in a staggered position (half of the pan-el‘s length).Glue coming out of the butt joint shows that the quantity of the glue is sufficient and could be scraped off e.g. by using a spatula next day. The optional second layer is installed 90° turned

with staggered joints and is glued holohedral to the first layer.The edge insulation stripes for the gap behind the last row of GIFAfloor panels have to be insert into the gap at last.Don‘t walk on the installed GIFAfloor for c. 8 hours.The floor system is receptive to the full working load after c. 24 hours (standard time of the glue is fully set).For support heights higher than c. 500mm string-ers are recommended, for heights higher than c. 800mm or expected lateral forces (e.g. corridors in front of of elevators in hospitals) Knauf Integral ZD diagonal rods are adviced.
