3.01 APPLICATION OF GYPSUM BOARD

A. Apply gypsum board to existing ceiling surface with separate panels in moderate contact, do not force in place. Stagger end joints of adjoining panels. Neatly fit abutting end and edge joints. Use gypsum board of maximum practical length; select panel sizes to minimize waste. Cut out gypsum board to make neat, close, and tight joints around openings.

The contractor shall use methods to ensure that fasteners reach and properly embed into joists and structure. The contractor shall investigate joist layout and arrangement.

C. Where existing ceiling plaster has detached from substrate (typical for plaster detached from intact lath), use screws with 1” washers or approved similar method, to spread the weight of the ceiling system across the diameter of the washer. As the gypsum board is fastened through to joist/structure, the fastener shall “pull” the gypsum board and existing plaster system tightly against the original substrate, restoring the ceiling. This method requires additional finishing to provide a smooth final product once patched and painted.

D. Surfaces of gypsum board and substrate (existing plaster) may be bonded together with an adhesive in addition to fasteners.

GYPSUM BOARD CEILING REPAIRS - 09 29 00.10 - Page 3

F. Provide type of gypsum board for use in each system specified herein as indicated.

3.02 FINISHING OF GYPSUM BOARD

A. Tape and finish gypsum board in accordance with ASTM C840, GA 214 and GA 216. Unless otherwise specified, finish all gypsum board walls, partitions and ceilings to Level 4 in accordance with GA 214. Provide joint, fastener depression, and corner treatment. Tool joints as smoothly as possible to minimize sanding and dust.

B. Provide accessories and corner treatments to edges where new gypsum board meets existing wall, existing crown molding or existing cornice/ornate ceiling treatments. Refer to project SOW for addition requirements for new crown molding or similar decorative treatment which may affect method of finishing perimeter edges of the new ceiling gypsum board.

C. Do not use fiber glass mesh tape with conventional drying type joint compounds; use setting or hardening type compounds only.
