A drywall partition is a complete system. Board type, metal framing and accessories must be selected for the actual height, use, moisture and performance requirements.
Typical partition components
Studs, runners, gypsum boards, screws, joint tape, jointing compound and optional insulation are common components.
Spacing and specification must follow the selected technical system rather than a generic shopping list.
Drywall and dry wall terminology
Drywall is the usual English spelling; dry wall is a common search variation. Both are mapped to this page because they express the same intent.
Project dimensions and required performance should be provided when requesting materials.
