Updated drylining specifiers guide
The Finishes and Interiors Sector (FIS) has published a revised and updated Specifiers' Guide to drylining. This essential resource will help specifiers and designers with the specification of drylining, and to take account of new working practices, the Building Safety Act and sustainability. |
First published in 2022, this revised guide is an invaluable aid to specifiers, designers, installers and clients. This publication will guide them through some of the key criteria that should be considered when writing a specification for drylining, including partitions, wall linings and shaft walls. In helping to select a drylining system that will satisfy performance needs, it also includes descriptions of other non-plasterboard, such as calcium silicate board, which is also used in drylined systems. The guide includes top tips when specifying drylining, as well as reference material on regulations for safety, fire performance and standards.
