please how many flat can one gets from one bag of cement please.
Plaster of Paris is regarded as any type of plaster
containing calcified gypsum (calcium sulfate
dehydrate), sand and water. When these
ingredients are combined, they result in the
formation of a tough, dry product; however,
plaster of Paris can be sanded to achieve a variety of looks. By following some basic guidelines, you can use plaster of Paris to mend cracks, fix dents,for ceiling, in walls and even to create artworks.
However in this case our focus is on ceiling.
POP popularly called plaster of paris is used for a lot of purposes because it can easily be formed to any shape and it hardens quickly and is easy to operate.
To do a pop ceiling in your home, getting it done is in two ways, you can buy the materials yourself which include pop cement , yarn(sponge like material) etc then pay the installer based on per square meter of area of coverage, or you can give it out totally as a contract.
But these are the basic steps in getting pop
ceiling cast-on-site done.
Get cement, bucket,water, a very plane and
smooth surface could be a table, a rectangular
glass of a big size to give smooth surface for the modules that will be produced.
POP’s are casted on plane surface by placing the glass of a considerable size on an even table, support the edges by wood of the thickness you wish to cast. Make sure you clean the table from dirts.
Then mix POP cement with a concentration of
approximately 7 parts water to 10 parts pop and place some portion of yarn in the mould.
Place the water in the bucket and slowly pour the pop cement into it and continuously stir with a stick or whatever handy just the way you put yam flour on hot boiling water and stir until curing. The longer is mixed the better it will become.
The yarn helps to strengthen the pop board
formed, just same way iron rods helps to carry
concrete.
Pour the pop into the mold of glass base and
wooden stuffs by the edge, this is required to
form plane straight board of pop, as you pour
gently tap the molds to allow escape of bubbles in the mixture, and you have to pour enough mixture for it to be slightly over filled, then level off the mold using a straight edged tool like a trowel, called putty knife to smooth en the top surface.
You can remove the support by the side which
may be wood,iron range or anything straight by the side that can hold the mix before hardening.
Gently use same putty knife to separate the glass from the hardened mix of pop cement and water after two hours so you can use same mold to form another one until you have enough boards that can cover the area you need. Place them in open air to dry the next day.
To install the boards after hardening, for a ceiling of concrete decking, the yarn is also mixed with a concentration of pop cement to form a strong adhesive (gum) between the concrete ceiling and the boards, just make sure you have a good paste of the pop and enough yarn to sustain the weight, the plaster boards are usually light after drying anyway.
And for wooden ceiling same process can be
used as above also binding wire can also be
applied to tie the boards to the woods above
ceiling.
When you want to place the boards, establish the edges the pop will be placed, make sure any point you mark use range and plumb to transfer round the room to achieve very straight line round the room. Get some iron range(straight iron of about 3.6m) use them to support the boards from one side to the other, you do this by tighten the range to the wood on the roof by binding wire, then in between the range you place the boards and start joining them together on the roof with the mixture of yarn and cement and you
also join the boards at the edges together by
thick mix of same pop cement. Try to achieve a smooth and even surface by patching with pop paste and gradually untie the range by removing the binding wire under the boards. Fill holes left with pop pastes using putty knife to blend the surface.
For the cornice at the edges follow same process of forming the molds. However the molds container are already forms in plastics which can be bought from the market,depends on the type of design you want out of the ones available in market, get the same cement, water mixture with yarn for strength and pour into mould. When is dry you will still need the range and plumb to establish the line of the cornice, and also place just like the boards, but this time it will be along the walls. Medallions are pop designs usually in flowery patterns that are mostly placed at the center of the room, they are also of the pop mix and you can also buy them in the market. Adding ornamental ceiling plaster around your pendant light fixtures can bring beauty and value to your
home.
