Drywall Basics 

Drywall (gypsum) is a noncombustible material. Not only is it lighter than plaster and wood. It is much more cost effective as well. If a repair or replacement was needed. Gyprock offers the easiest fix. It’s much easier to blend and make it look like the walls or ceiling was never touched. It’s most popular in homes across North America with more than 20 billion square feet is manufactured per year, according to the Gypsum Association. Drywall can offer some very aesthetic appealing features to your rooms. Rather that be recessed shelves or recessed entertainment systems. Create different figures to decorate and add a more modern look to your walls and ceilings. Build different archways to enhance different entrances into rooms with gypsum cardboard.  Drywall offers less costs when it comes to applying plaster and leaves a much smoother wall finish. Drywall is much more fire resistant in comparison to wood and does not shift and move with the change in humidity levels.

Drywall comes in 5 levels of finishes. Well, 6 if you count level 0  
  • Level 0: Drywall is fastened to wooden or steel studs with the fasteners exposed 
  • Level 1: Drywall is hung like in level 0 but the seams and exposed fasteners are covered with tape and compound. 
  • Level 2: A layer of compound is applied to the wall. This is typically done if you’re covering the wall with tiles. 
  • Level 3: The walls and ceilings receive a second layer of compound to ensure a smooth finish. 
  • Level 4: A third layer of compound is applied to prep the walls and ceilings for paint.  
  • Level 5: The third layer receives a skim coat of compound to prep the panels for a gloss enamel paint. ​

What Is Drywall Made Of

Sheets of drywall, also know has sheetrock or plasterboard. Are made of two paperboards that holds gypsum sandwiched in the middle. Gypsum being the main ingredient, is a calcium sulfate dihydrate. Sheetrock holds its rigidity with additives such as: 
  • Paper and fiberglass fibers 
  • Potassium sulfate 
  • Plasticizers 
  • Mica 
  • Starch 
  • Chelating agents 
  • Boric Acid 
  • Wax emulsion ​

What Seals Drywall Panels and Screw Holes

After the drywall panels are fastened to your walls and ceiling. They need to be sealed. This is where compound, mud, fiber tape, paper tape is used. Once the compound or mud is dried it resembles gypsum and can be mistakenly assumed as gypsum plaster. However, it is not. The composition of mud and compound is Calcium Carbonate and Talcum. Calcium Carbonate is the primary ingredient in drywall compound. Which is otherwise known as ground Limestone. Talcum is the ingredient that makes the sanding of the walls the least desirable. This fine dust is used because of its flat shaped particles and its resistant to cracking. Talcum is the property in mud that allows the compound to be sanded down to a “like glass” finish.  ​

What Is Acoustic Drywall

Areas and rooms that require sound proofing and sound control applies acoustical gypsum board to their walls and ceilings. Areas that need such an apparent high sound transmission class (ASTC) may include: Apartment Buildings, Schools, Hospitals, Bedrooms and Living rooms. The ASTC is a transmission of sound produced to test the acoustics of a building. The ASTC rating between dwelling units must be 47 or greater to be in compliance with the 2015 NBCC.
