(GA-600-2006)
The 18th edition of the Gypsum Association's
flagship publication depicts over 340 systems that may be used for fire-rated walls and partitions,
floor/ceiling systems, roof/ceiling systems, and to protect columns, beams, and girders. Included for
the first time in this edition are several new floor - and roof-ceiling systems and double-stud steel

building officials keep up with fire-rated gypsum board systems that are permitted under the codes. |
