Q:Trying to get fit and build up my muscles.. my friend recently got a jml pull up bar for his bedroom door, but it doesn't screw in, it rests on the door frame and is very strong. He has fairly similar walls to me, but can't be sure. I have a new build house in UK, will my plasterboard walls support my 70kg weight? Thank you :-)

a door frame would work. plaster board will push away, and you will fall.

Q:on the ceiling of an ensuite in our house, the paint is all starting to crack and peel and flake off. I have been given the task of scraping it all off with a metal scraper and it is really tedious and is taking ages to do it. This happened before, so we were told to paint a primer first adn then paint over it with normal paint. It didn't work. Like I said, the wall is a plasterboard, is there anyway to easily strip off the paint? and how can we stop this happening again?

Once latex paint dries it is very difficult to remove. The only solvent that will work is methlyethyl ketone which you can get at a home center or paint store. If the fabric is cotton you can try removing the paint with MEK if it is synthetic or a blend you will need to test the solvent on a not so visible spot to make sure that it won't damage the fabric.

Q:How many kinds of gypsum board

Gypsum board with ordinary paper gypsum board, water-resistant plaster board and fire-resistant plaster board three. Ordinary paper gypsum board for indoor walls and ceiling; water-resistant plaster board for the kitchen, bathroom walls and ceiling; refractory plaster board for refractory requirements of high indoor partitions and ceiling. Ordinary paper gypsum board is based on building gypsum as the main raw material, mixed with fiber and admixture constitute the core material, and with the face paper firmly together. The edge of the ordinary gypsum board is rectangular, 45. Chamfer, wedge, semicircular and round. Length of 1800,2100,2400,2700,3000,3300,3600mm, the width of 900,1200 mm; thickness of 9,12,15,18 mm. Products are special goods, first-class goods and three qualified products. Water-resistant plaster board is based on building gypsum as the main raw material, mixed with the amount of water-resistant admixture constitute water-resistant core material, and with water-resistant protective paper firmly bonded together. Water-resistant gypsum board edge shape is divided into rectangular, 450 chamfer, wedge, semi-circular and round five, the length of 1800,2100,2400,2700,3000,3300,3600mm; width 900, lZDOmm; Thickness of 9,] 2,15mm. Products are special goods, first-class goods and three qualified products. Refractory paper gypsum board is based on building gypsum as the main raw material, mixed with eight appropriate inorganic refractory fiber reinforced materials constitute refractory core material, and with the face paper firmly stick together. It has the ability to keep it from breaking when burning under high temperature open flame. The edges of the refractory gypsum board are rectangular, 45 0 chamfered, wedge, semi-circular and rounded. Length of 1800,2100,2400,2700,3000,3300,3600mm; width of 900,1200mm; thickness of 9,12,1 5,18,21,25 mm. Products are special goods, first-class goods and qualified products.

Q:Will the gypsum ceiling be deformed?

Gypsum board to gypsum as the main material, adding fiber, adhesive, modifier, by mixing to suppress, dry from. With fire, noise, heat, light, high strength, low shrinkage and other characteristics and good stability, not aging, anti-moth, available nails, saws, planing, sticky and other methods of construction. The main categories are: gypsum plaster board, decorative gypsum board, gypsum hollow slab, fiber gypsum board. Decorative gypsum board: to build plaster as the main raw material, hue pattern realistic and innovative. Gypsum hollow slab: the same building gypsum as the main raw material, is a light plate, the installation does not require keel, mainly used in the interior walls and partitions. Fiber gypsum board: In addition to building gypsum as the main material, but also incorporates the right amount of fiber reinforced materials, the bending strength than the paper gypsum board can also be used in the interior walls and partitions, in addition to wood materials can also be made of furniture The

Q:I'm using these 'wall anchor' bolt things to hold stuff up on the wall. They're the ones that slot through a drilled hole and then when you tighten the screw in them, the part behind the wall gets compressed until it presses against the back of the wall. That's probably irrelevant though...These wall anchors are rated to hold 10kg when used in 10mm thick plasterboard walls. I'm using them in a fibro cement wall which is approx 6mm thick. Seeing as fibro cement walls are way stronger than plasterboard, would you have any idea what the wall anchors could support in them? 20kg? 30kg?I know this is going to be pretty hard to answer accurately, but any educated guesses would be great! Thanks

fibro cement may be stronger but i would guess it is more brittle too. it may crack when you tighten the anchors if you can find a couple of studs and screw directly to these it would help
