3.2 APPLYING AND FINISHING PANELS, GENERAL
A. Comply with ASTM C 840.
B. Install ceiling panels across framing to minimize the number of abutting end
joints and to avoid abutting end joints in central area of each ceiling. Stagger
abutting end joints of adjacent panels not less than one framing member.
C. Install panels with face side out. Butt panels together for a light contact at
edges and ends with not more than 1/16 inch (1.5 mm) of open space
between panels. Do not force into place.
D. Locate edge and end joints over supports, except in ceiling applications
where intermediate supports or gypsum board backbl ocking is provided
behind end joints. Do not place tapered edges against cut edges or ends.
Stagger vertical joints on opposite sides of partitions. Do not make joints
other than control joints at corners of framed openings.
E. Form control and expansion joints with space between edges of adjoining
gypsum panels.
F. Cover both faces of support framing with gypsum panels in concealed spaces
(above ceilings, etc.), except in chases braced internally.
1. Unless concealed application is indicated or required for sound, fire, air,
or smoke ratings, coverage may be accomplished with scraps of not less
than 8 sq. ft. (0.7 sq. m) in area.
2. Fit gypsum panels around ducts, pipes, and conduits.
3. Where partitions intersect structural members projecting below underside
of floor/roof slabs and decks, cut gypsum panels to fit profile formed by
structural members; allow 1/4 to 3/8inch (6.4 t o 9.5mm) wide joints to
install sealant.
G. Isolate perimeter of gypsum board applied to nonloadbearing partitions at
structural abutments, except floors. Provide 1/4 to 1/2inch (6.4 to 12.7
mm) wide spaces at these locations, and trim edges with edge trim where
edges of panels are exposed. Seal joints between edges and abutting
structural surfaces with acoustical sealant.
H. Attachment to Steel Framing: Attach panels so leading edge or end of each
panel is attached to open (unsupported) edges of stud flanges first.
I. STCRated Assemblies: Seal construction at peri meters, behind control
joints, and at openings and penetrations with a continuous bead of acoustical
sealant. Install acoustical sealant at both faces of partitions at perimeters
and through penetrations. Comply with ASTM C 919 and with manufacturer's
written recommendations for locating edge trim and closing off soundflanking
paths around or through assemblies, including sealing partitions above
acoustical ceilings.

J. Install sound attenuation blankets before installing gypsum panels, unless
blankets are readily installed after panels have been installed on one side.
3.3 APPLYING INTERIOR GYPSUM BOARD
A. Install interior gypsum board in the following locations:
1. Type X: All.
B. SingleLayer Application:
1. On ceilings, apply gypsum panels before wall/partition board application
to greatest extent possible and at right angles to framing, unless
otherwise indicated.
2. On partitions/walls, apply gypsum panels vertically (parallel to framing),
unless otherwise indicated or required by fireresi stancerated assembly,
and minimize end joints.
a. Stagger abutting end joints not less than one framing member in
alternate courses of panels.
b. At stairwells and other high walls, install panels horizontally, unless
otherwise indicated or required by fireresistance rated assembly.
3. On Zfurring members, apply gypsum panels vertic ally (parallel to
framing) with no end joints. Locate edge joints over furring members.
4. Fastening Methods: Apply gypsum panels to supports with steel drill
screws.
C. Multilayer Application:
1. On ceilings, apply gypsum board indicated for base layers before
applying base layers on walls/partitions; apply face layers in same
sequence. Apply base layers at right angles to framing members and
offset facelayer joints 1 framing member, 16 inche s (400 mm) minimum,
from parallel baselayer joints, unless otherwise i ndicated or required by
fireresistancerated assembly.
2. On partitions/walls, apply gypsum board indicated for base layers and
face layers vertically (parallel to framing) with joints of base layers located
over stud or furring member and facelayer joints o ffset at least one stud
or furring member with baselayer joints, unless ot herwise indicated or
required by fireresistancerated assembly. Stagge r joints on opposite
sides of partitions.
3. Fastening Methods: Fasten base layers and face layers separately to
supports with screws.

prepare gypsum board surfaces for decoration. Promptly remove residual
joint compound from adjacent surfaces.
B. Prefill open joints, rounded or beveled edges, and damaged surface areas.
C. Apply joint tape over gypsum board joints, except those with trim having
flanges not intended for tape.
D. Gypsum Board Finish Levels: Finish panels to levels indicated below and
according to ASTM C 840:
1. Level 1: Ceiling plenum areas, concealed areas, and where indicated.
