I'm about to expand the garage a bit. Anything in particular to consider when it comes to the choice of drywall?
No, nothing special, however, I would like to recommend 90 panels instead of 120, Extremely much nicer to work with, then you get a few more studs to screw things into.. cost issue, though..
 
Have used Byggmax budget a lot, even in the garage ceiling, and haven't experienced any problems with it. Tip: rent a drywall lift if you're going to screw the ceiling!

Thanks for the response!

But if it's studded cce 60, which I believe it is.
How do I get that to work with a 90 board?

What I'm going to expand the garage with is an existing woodshed that's already behind the garage. I plan to tear down the rear garage wall against the woodshed and insulate the woodshed.
Does that make sense?

The woodshed part is already integrated into the same building.
That is, the roof and outer walls already exist but are not insulated.
 
The 90 boards are about 30% more expensive if I remember correctly (cost about the same as the 120 boards). You can spend that money on OSB to have behind the gypsum instead.....

If you're working all day it's clear that 90 is preferable. If you're constructing a few dozen boards at home, the size doesn't matter.

How do I make it fit with a 90-board?QUOTE]

Then you can't use a 900mm board unless you want to re-stud or put OSB behind it.
 
Thank you, then I wasn't completely off in my thoughts.
 
The difference in the budget boards compared to the Std gypsum boards is the amount of gypsum in the boards. So if you use Gyproc, Norgips, dano, or Lafarge, their Std board is the same, but the Budget board may differ in the amount of gypsum. Use Std gypsum for walls.

You can always mount the boards horizontally. At least if you put down 2 layers and offset the seams between the layers. 90x240 works then...
 
but since this is about a grovutrymme it is "obvious" to put OSB behind the plasterboard, and then the distance between the studs doesn't matter. It just becomes a matter of economics...
 
yes... and a question about fifteen sheets- or thirty- with the accompanying number of seams... in case you decide to fill and paint sometime.
