  • Publication number: 20240026998
    Abstract: A method can be used for producing a firewall in an opening of a building. In this case, at least one fire protection profile is used which contains a tube made of a composite material, which is filled with a fire protection material. The fire protection profile is designed such that it can be combined with an adjacent fire protection profile in the event of a fire. In order to produce the firewall, it is first transferred into an at least partially compressed state or provided in such a state. The fire protection profile is then introduced into the opening, with the at least partially compressed state being maintained. The fire protection profile is subsequently released so that it is decompressed at least partially and at least in portions.

  • Publication number: 20230332398
    Abstract: A sealing device can be used for a double edge joint which is formed between a floor, a wall, or a ceiling and an adjacent first cladding and a spaced-apart second cladding of drywall having double-layer cladding. The sealing device contains a sealing profile having a holding portion and a first base body for sealing a first edge joint on the first cladding and a second base body for sealing a second edge joint on the second cladding. The first and the second base bodies are connected to one another via the holding portion and, in combination therewith, form a U-shaped receptacle for the holding rail of the drywall. Furthermore, drywall can contain a sealing device of this type.

  • Publication number: 20230330982
    Abstract: A method can be used for producing a plurality of sealing profiles for an edge joint of drywall. The method involves providing a first web of sealing material, and applying a plurality of adhesive strips to the first web, where adjacent adhesive strips are at a distance from one another corresponding to at least 50% of the height of a sealing profile. The method then involves providing a second web, and merging and joining the first web to the second web via the adhesive strips to form a multilayer web. The method further involves introducing a plurality of cuts in a particular way at a distance from all adhesive strips to form a number of sealing profiles. A corresponding sealing profile is produced in this way.

  • Publication number: 20230323657
    Abstract: A sealing device can be used for an edge joint between a cladding part of drywall and an adjacent floor, wall, or ceiling. The sealing device contains a one-piece base body having a carrier portion, a contact portion, and a sealing portion. The carrier portion forms a support for the circumferential side of the cladding part. The contact portion starts from the carrier portion and protrudes in a first direction angled with respect to the carrier portion in order to rest against an edge of an end face of the cladding part. The sealing portion starts from the carrier portion and extends away from the carrier portion. The sealing portion has two spaced apart webs that bridge the edge joint. Furthermore, drywall can have at least one cladding part and a sealing device of this type.

  • Publication number: 20230323656
    Abstract: A sealing profile can be used for an edge joint formed between a floor and adjacent cladding of drywall. The sealing profile has a base body for sealing the edge joint. The base body has an upper portion close to the cladding and an opposite bottom portion. The upper portion has an upper side which forms a support for the cladding. The sealing profile also has a lateral fastening portion running towards the base body for fastening the sealing profile to a lateral holding rail of the drywall. The fastening portion is only firmly connected to the base body via the bottom portion. The base body also has a side surface which is directly opposite the fastening portion and which is not connected to the opposite region of the fastening portion. Drywall can contain such a sealing profile.
