Design Assumptions:
• It is assumed that the system designed is a Non load bearing system & no external wind pressure is considered.
• The lateral Internal Wind Pressure considered is as per provided specification. The concerned engineer to verify the Specified internal
live load other than Mada.
No Additional load or Shelf attachment has been considered in this system design.
• The adequacy of the supporting superstructure such as beams, slabs, columns, steel purlins etc. has not been considered and therefore
shall remain the responsibility of concerned engineer other than Mada.
• The Load Combination considered in the Strength design of Drywall Partition is
[1.2D + 0Q + 1.6W] ; Where, D - Dead Load ; Q - Live Load ; W - Wind Load
• Acoustic Rating: Mada PLUS System is tested as per ASTM E90 and certified by 3rd party acoustic laboratory. Note that the conditions on
the job-site compared to the ideal conditions present in a lab will vary, which is the reason why a 3dB point difference is allowed
between the construction design on paper and the actual on site sound test performance.
Deflection:
• Where a deflection head is required to allow for soffit movement, use Mada Deflection head track at soffit detail. Deflection limit of a
standard partition is 08 - 10 mm. For higher deflection limit contact Mada Technical department for guidance.
Control Joints:
• Movement control joints are recommended at a maximum span of 15m. Control joints should also be installed to concur with any
movement joints in the structure.
• Control joints in interior walls shall be installed where a wall or partition runs in an uninterrupted straight plane exceeding 9.1 m.
• Control joints in interior ceilings with perimeter relief shall be installed so that linear dimensions between control joints do not exceed
15m and total area between control joints does not exceed 230 m2.
• Control joints in interior ceilings without perimeter relief shall be installed so that linear dimensions between control joints do not
exceed 10m and total area between control joints does not exceed 80 m2.
• Control joints shall be installed where ceiling framing members change direction.
Penetrations:
• Please be aware that the Fire & Acoustic performance are affected if the penetrations are not properly treated. Please refer to Mada
drawings or consult the MEP Contractor to ensure that the Fire & Acoustic performance is not affected. Please contact Mada Technical
department for further information and guidance.
Metal Profile Specifications:
• Mada cold formed metal profiles are manufactured using galvanized steel coils with a minimum zinc coating mass of Z120 [120 Grams of
Zinc per m2). Steel Grade JIS 3302, SGCC
Plasterboard Specifications: SASO Quality Mark Certified
• Mada Plus plasterboard are manufactured to ASTM C1396 / C1396M Standard and EN 520 Standard
• Regular Plasterboard – ASTM C1396 / C1396M & EN 520 Type A
• Fire Resistant Plasterboard - ASTM C1396 / C1396M Type X & EN 520 Type I, F
• Moisture Resistant Plasterboard - ASTM C1396 / C1396M & EN 520 Type A & H1
• Fire & Moisture Resistant Plasterboard - ASTM C1396 / C1396M Type X & EN 520 Type I, F & H1
• Impact Resistant Plasterboard - ASTM C1396 / C1396M Type X & EN 520 Type D, F, I & R
• Acoustic Resistant Plasterboard - ASTM C1396 / C1396M & EN 520 Type D
• Mada ProCem Cement Board – ASTM C1325 & EN12467
• Mada Fibre Cement Board – ASTM C1186
Wall stability:
• The wall height at site may not exceed the one specified in respective Mada documentation.
• Wall stability shall be ensured by correct fixing of peripheral profiles so the surrounding structures.
• The C-Stud s of dimensions as specified shall be installed at spacing distances not exceeding 600 mm as specified.
• The wall lined by boards at one side may not be exposed to air pressure over 0.10 kPa until the other side is lined by boards.
• The stability of the wall with height over 6.0 m stretching over the great length of should be increased by walls branching off at
maximum 6.0 m intervals.
Limitations
• The design proposed is not as per scale and shall be read in concurrence with structural or architectural drawings.
• The Contractor to ensure the workability of the proposed system.
