200 – Steel Framing
Sure-Board® has a gypsum board facing that integrates with standard gypsum board for a smooth uninterrupted finish. Sure-Board® requires no leveling and is ready for finishes. Sure-Board® lays flat on the stud surface with no sagging, leaving no surface irregularities. When Sure-Board® is used, there is no need for additional structural sheathing or tension strap braces, requiring costly and laborious pre and post-tensioning.
Shear Applications
