drywalls
Interior wall sheets
Drywalls is the plural of drywall, the panels of gypsum plaster sandwiched between paper that form most interior walls and ceilings in modern construction.
As a verb, to drywall is to install these panels: We drywalled the basement last weekend.
The material replaced traditional plaster-and-lath construction because it's faster and cheaper to install.
