Learning aid: This lesson uses one layer of 5/8" drywall on each wall face to teach the finish-to-track relationship. Actual wall types may include different drywall thicknesses, multiple layers, plywood, tile, millwork, wall panels, shaftwall components, or other finishes. Always verify the drawings, wall types, finish schedule, specifications, and field control before laying out framing. Terms & Disclaimer
