I am in the process of building an interior wall that will involve a corner at a somewhat odd angle. If the studs for the sill and plates (45x70) are not beveled, it will look like this:
Beveling the studs so there is no gap at the floor and ceiling is not a problem, but I am wondering how to attach OSB boards and then drywall on either side so it doesn't become too flimsy. The inner corner should not be difficult, but how does it work with the outer corner? A spontaneous idea is to cut a number of triangular pieces to have something that supports the boards, but I am also wondering about the fastening itself. How do you create corners that are not fragile and don't break?
If you attach the boards directly to the straight walls, as shown below, does it work to cut the boards straight up and down in the gap, or will it be too narrow? When applying the drywall, is there a way to miter the drywall to avoid gaps at the joints?
Many considerations, but surely someone has done something similar!
It's just a matter of splitting a piece of wood to get stability
Then the plaster is just to bring out the surform plane aka plaster rasp and make a little angle on it.. and do as MathiasS says
Getting such a corner to be durable uses the same approach as a right-angled one.
Gaps? well, there will be some here and there but what else would you have the painter/spouse for?
I would place the OSB as tightly as possible and then lay a metal strip on the OSB before installing the drywall and then use a paper tape glued on the drywall.
Thank you! When you say metal strip, are you thinking several horizontally, or one vertical (folded) over each corner?
Thanks! When you say metal band, are you thinking of several horizontally, or a vertical (bent) one over each corner?
No, I am thinking of something similar to a corner profile that you mount on the drywall.
Maybe it is enough to just mount one like that on the drywall, but with studs behind and standing metal profile, followed by the usual work on the drywall to ensure a crack-free joint.
I believe there are corner profiles that are not 90 degrees?
Not knowledgeable in the area, just googled, but I would definitely want a proper corner protector so that the slightest bump doesn't ruin the corner because of Murphy's Law.
OSB meets with a 5mm gap in the corner, Foldable metal strip mounted vertically and attached with drywall screws type c/c 30 (the head of the drywall screw is a bit larger, chipboard screws might sometimes pull through the metal but if you take it easy it works fine) On with the drywall, and then there are coarser paper model joint corners that you can usually fold out a bit, they come in 3m lengths for inner and outer corners. Alternatively, if it then messes up, there are foldable corner strips you can use to cover it. Gives the corner more impact resistance too.
