Good evening everyone,

I am currently renovating. Some things only become clear once the work is underway.

We want to leave the beam exposed spontaneously. However, the pipes must be concealed behind a wall. I want to finish the wall flush with both the wall and the beam. What is the best way/material to build the substructure for this? Should I fill the open gaps with PU foam? Or should I add mortar or bricks to the openings?

The same goes for the door opening. Here, I was thinking of simply using timber studs and then screwing the wall onto them.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Best regards and have a nice evening.

Several silver insulated ventilation pipes running through a wall opening in the shell construction.

Construction site: open door opening to a dark room, roughly plastered walls, visible cables and outlets.

Damaged wall opening with steel frame, bolts, cement mortar, and rubble masonry.

You can box in these pipes. For this, U30 profiles are used on the ceiling, wall, and floor. Where the steel support is located, use a U30 or preferably a CW profile as well. Then, screw a suitably cut drywall board to one of the sides, and on its inside attach another U30 profile. The second board is then mounted on that. This way, the boxing would be complete except for the edge protection and plastering work. I would fill the large holes around the support with masonry and plaster neatly all around using a visible edge protection profile. I didn’t quite understand the rest. Where there apparently used to be a door, do you now want to completely close off the opening?
