Hi!

Can someone help me figure out what I need...

I will be covering the framework with OSB and then plasterboard, in the inner corners of each room I plan to mount an angle metal/aluminium plate on the OSB board, that is, behind the plasterboard, from floor to ceiling

then screw through the plasterboard plate into the OSB.

what is this track called? angle trim, corner profile? I can't find any....
 
Thanks!

Managed to find at Bauhaus now, norgips angle profile. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be available at Byggmax....
Does anyone know if it's available at Biltema or similar?

was also available at xlbygg at an affordable price,

am I right in my thinking to use angle profiles in the inner corners? can you screw directly through these? and will it turn out well otherwise?

the reason is that I have framed up 45x45 regular approximately 3-5 cm from the log wall, so it is like an independent wall that becomes quite flexible in the corners where they meet

I think you're absolutely right; I've mounted similar profiles in all the inner corners myself. When you have horizontal studs inside like I do, these reinforcements play an important role.

Keep in mind that drywall screws hold very well even in the metal, so it's important that the metal is flush against the OSB board. Otherwise, there's a significant risk that the gypsum/metal angle/OSB won't be pressed together into a single unit.
I chose to glue my angles with PL600 against the OSB boards a day before I installed the drywall.
 
okay that's good!

maybe you can secure the angles with the dyckertpickan in the OSB first... but I understand the problem that it's easy to get "air" between the sheet metal and OSB...

it will probably work out somehow anyway :)
 
one more thing then, paper or fiberglass tape when you have OSB behind?

have used fiberglass in a room before, still looks good except in the corners but yes I have lifted the whole house and made a new foundation.. no wonder it cracked there then :)

Most people seem to agree that paper tape is better.

But the painter who did all my ceilings (420m2) and walls (400m2) said he refused to provide a guarantee if he couldn't use fiberglass, so far I haven't seen a single crack. In the ceiling, I have plasterboard on a spaced panel with centers 30cm apart, and for the walls, there is 12mm particle board behind the plasterboard.

I think I'll continue using fiberglass, it was smooth to apply in my opinion... however, I haven't tried paper tape.
 
Gabbe, was your painter from the older generation? No one uses fiberglass on construction sites anymore.
 
Nope, he's 25-30 I would guess, but he works for the city's largest painting company so I wonder if he himself gets to choose such a thing.
