Gypsum building sheets
Wallboards are flat panels used to cover interior walls and ceilings, typically made of gypsum plaster pressed between sheets of heavy paper.
Drywall and sheetrock are common types.
The material replaced traditional plaster-and-lath construction in most residential building: We hung wallboards in the basement to finish the space.
