Two ingredients are required for a quality plaster job—quality products and skilled craftspeople using correct lathing and plastering techniques. This chapter addresses the basic recommendations and installation procedures to produce the best possible job. It describes wood and steel framing, applications of conventional plaster bases in fire‐and sound‐rated assemblies and includes frame‐spacing and fastener selector charts. All successful plaster jobs require adequate equipment: power mixers, mortarboards, scaffolding and tools. Correct fastener selection and adherence to fastener spacing are extremely important to good plastering performance and absolutely essential in meeting the requirements of specific fire‐rated constructions. Ornamental plasters are used to add decorative treatments such as crown molding, rails, lintels and wall and ceiling details. USG offers a number of special additives to improve plaster bond or enhance its abuse resistance or performance characteristics. The chapter concludes with a discussion on caulking procedures and fixture attachment.
