  Exactly what I was thinking: shut the fuck up anon, and let drywall dude speak.

    What a gyp

      What sort of gyp? We talking 4’x8’ gyp panels or the 4’x12’ panels? Think the gypsum is fire resistant?

      All seriousness, is framing building standards common in most of the world? Or do each country have their preferred dry wall size due to different stud lengths?

        In America at least we generally use 4’x8’x¾" or ½" to cut corners. Where I live fire resistance is important but I’ve been out of the construction game for awhile so I’m not sure if it’s code here. I do know that in shower areas we use purple/green board for obvious reasons. I live in California now and I suspect fire wall is code here but I’m not certain. I live in a house built over 100 years ago so it’s all plaster.

        In general just use sum gyp.
