Hi,
I am wondering what distance should be between each nail plug on the roof beam??
I have 2 beams that should be across the width at the edges, which are 230cm.
One nail plug in the middle and 2 pieces 6cm from the edges.
It will be 90cm from the middle to the nail plugs at the edges.
Is that enough or should I add 2 more, then it will be 45cm between each??
/45x70mm beams on 30cc, 13x1200mm gypsum.
Thankful for any answers

Is it like sparse paneling?
So your 45x70 are going to support drywall for a ceiling (indoors).
Should 45x70 be mounted standing or lying down?
If it's lying down, I think cc900 feels a bit too long. But I have no experience with that.

But now that I think about it a bit.
I have spaced with 28x70 at cc30, on studs at cc120.
Equivalent to your first suggestion(/question) is 45x70 at cc90, i.e., both more densely hung and a heavier nailing rule.
So yes, I think it's enough for you to nail plug with cc90, as long as the nail plug itself can support the weight.

What I was wondering was not how much cc should be between each beam, but rather how many anchor plugs are needed for a ceiling beam that will then support ceiling gypsum.
Another question:
A gypsum board measuring 120cm wide and 2m long.
Is it enough to frame around it and then with just one in between it???
It's about 53cc from the center beam to the edges.

Is the gypsum 6 or 13 mm? But I would probably aim for about 30 cm between the nail plugs, but why not use regular drywall screws? Worked well for me, but then I had 28x70 on cc 30 and 20 cm between the screws. My gypsum boards are holding well after about 4 years... not fun to spackle though 
To your second question: I would say, YES.. But leave no guarantees
