Installation overview
Plasterboard baffle - backing method
Holes in plasterboard linings for socket boxes should always be
neatly cut and Gyproc Sealant should be applied where optimum
acoustic performance and / or minimum air leakage is required. In
fire-rated walls, the fire-stopping design is dependent on the
period of fire resistance required. The depth of plasterboard baffle
should be approximately 150mm. Whilst the following example
details relate to 60 and 90 minute fire-resistant specifications, the
principle of the details can generally be adopted for 120 minute
specifications.
Sacrificial linings
The Robust Details pattern book also offers the alternative of a
sacrificial lining in front of a separating wall to create a zone for
service installation. These service zones remove the need for service
penetration of the actual Robust Detail separating wall
construction, which in turn removes the risk of a loss in acoustic
performance as a result of service penetrations.

Fire resistance and sound insulation
The plasterboard baffle backing is a traditional method that is
recognised to maintain both fire resistance and sound insulation
performance. Tests have been carried out and the Robust Details
manual approves this method.
Fire and acoustic tests have been carried out on British Gypsum
GypWall metal stud partitions drylined with Gyproc plasterboard
incorporating sockets lined with Hilti CP617 Putty Pads. The tests
indicate that Hilti CP617 Putty Pads have the potential to maintain
both the fire and acoustic performance of a perforated partition
when tested under UKAS laboratory conditions, in comparison to
an imperforate partition of the same specification.
