One. How to apply stone to walls.
1、Substrate surface cleaning and preparation
First, the wall surface substrate needs to be prepared. The preparation method is similar to that used for wall covering, ensuring that the wall surface is clean, free of loose particles and dust, level, and coated with a moisture-proof layer.
2、Secure the studs
Generally, heavy stone background walls require steel profiles to reduce the impact of the stone on the wall surface and improve the overall seismic resistance. The construction method involves drilling holes in the wall and embedding fixing components, then connecting the profiles to the fixing components according to the construction drawings. The profiles must be installed securely and level with the wall surface.
3、Install hanging fixtures
After securely fixing the steel framework, the next step is to attach the hanging device for the stone background board to the framework. The hanging device should have a T-shaped design, and it should be securely attached to the framework.
4、Install stone background panels
After installing the hanging fixtures, the next step is to install the stone background wall. The specific method involves making cuts in the upper and lower sides of each stone at its four corners, and then injecting stone adhesive into the cuts. Finally, the upper and lower cards of the hanging fixtures are inserted into the cuts to secure them.
5、Joint Treatment
After installing the stone background wall, it is necessary to fill the gaps. First, clean the gaps of dust and debris. Then, apply adhesive tape to the edges of the stone Beijing boards. Finally, use grout or sealant to fill the gaps.
II. important considerations for installing a stone background wall.
1、Space size planning
When planning the design, we first need to consider the space for the TV background wall. The size of the stone background wall should be determined based on the size of the TV and the overall space.
2、Material color selection
There are many types of stone, with diverse colors and textures. Therefore, before installation, it is necessary to choose the appropriate stone background wall material and color according to the overall interior design style of the home, so that the entire home's design style can remain consistent.
3、Pre-planning for cabling
Choose stone materials for the background wall, which are environmentally friendly and durable, but due to the use of stud construction for fixing, they are difficult to remove. Therefore, when planning the renovation, it is necessary to clearly plan the electrical layout according to the placement of home appliances to avoid the embarrassment of finding that the wires are still exposed after moving in.
