I have bought ceiling gypsum board at byggmax with beveled edges that are 600x1200mm in size, planning to start framing this weekend but I am a bit stuck on how much framing is needed.
Is it enough with 3 longitudinal studs that I can screw the gypsum boards into, as the 3 red lines show on the photo.
Or do I also need to put a cross stud on the short sides as the yellow lines show on the photo.
A bit hard to see. So are they beveled panels where you leave the joints visible to form a visible grid? Or with recessed sides that should be taped and spackled smoothly?
I have only installed panels that have been spackled completely smooth, but I usually use small scrap pieces of framing wood about 15 cm that I insert at the short side joints. Two pieces at each joint if I have framed CC30. Then it's CC15 on the screws right at the joint. The scrap piece is placed right over the joint so that it connects two panels and thus prevents the panel ends from moving relative to each other. I don't screw them into the ceiling but just insert them as I put up the panels.
