Both seem liable to fail long term.


Why is that,? any more than any other aspect of sealing e.g. sticky tapes.]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279041#Comment_279041 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279041#Comment_279041 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 13:10:43 +0000 philedge Posted By: Nick Parsonsin my mind it's mainly to do with typical depth of bead achieved. With dry-lining adhesive that can be 50-75mm.

Glad Im not paying their adhesive bill! Maybe the plasterers Ive seen are particularly tight, but 15-25mm seems the norm]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279046#Comment_279046 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279046#Comment_279046 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 17:11:59 +0000 tony http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279054#Comment_279054 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279054#Comment_279054 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 20:29:09 +0000 owlman Posted By: tonyAnd dabs not ribbons

Manufacturers instructions and videos clearly show how to apply dry lining adhesive, anything less is just shoddy workmanship IMO.]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279065#Comment_279065 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279065#Comment_279065 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 23:11:09 +0000 CWatters
I always assumed that the "continuous ribbon of adhesive" should be applied around the edges of all sheets not just the edges of walls. But we went for wet plastering on our place so never seen drylining done.]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279076#Comment_279076 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=16472&Focus=279076#Comment_279076 Tue, 25 Feb 2020 10:22:23 +0000 WillInAberdeen
So three rectangles on each sheet. That means a continuous bead round the edge and then two stripes across the sheet. A total of ~10m of continuous bead on each sheet (yes that's 30 feet without gaps) plus extra for windows corners sockets etcetc.

Putting some bathpanel up recently, I was stuck by how impossible I found this with a gun. The slightest uncontrol of pressure on the trigger, or wobble of the nozzle, and I had a gap or a blob. Going back to fix it, usually made it worse. Nevermind my clumsy hand positioning when I lifted the sheet up.

Granted I don't do this every day and I was gunning the wall not the sheet due to tight floor space. But overall I think the idea is unworkable and the outcome is going to be pretty much the same as if dabs had been used.

I will be going back to glueing and screwing the sheet onto studs as at least there will be tight contact along the line of the timber, and I can foam the insulation to the timber.]]>
