partition walls

Interior space separators

Partition walls are interior walls that divide a building's space into separate rooms or areas.

Unlike load-bearing walls, partition walls typically support only their own weight and can often be added or removed without affecting structural integrity.

We knocked down the partition walls to create an open floor plan.
