A drywall is a high performance lightweight interior wall system consisting of a GI steel frame, encased in gypsum plasterboards on either side attached with self-drilling drywall screws. The joints are then taped and finished with gypsum jointing compounds.
Drywalls can be used to partition any interior and are the preferred choice of construction for a range of applications, in homes, hotels, hospitals, schools, theatres, and industry. They are strong and robust (drywalls of up to 15 meters high have been built) and can typically last the long years of a building unless they are subjected to abuse or alteration. There are various types of boards and thickness used for the partitions to meet the requirements.
