I they would have pushed the top wall piece up to the ceiling there wouldn't be a crack, and the finisher 's job would be a lot easer...

[@Maxkil]

It gets cornice, otherwise they would need to get wider board

[@82acresfarm]

Australia has cornice everywhere as standard

[@robertbutler8004]

That can't be in Australia because they did not use stud adhesive on the studs before fixing the sheeting!

3/8 inch...for ceilings maybe. Those walls are paper thin.

[@frostbite1991]

lived in a crappy house with walls that thin. Made many repairs when moving out. Just a minor bump between the studs would break it. Awful stuff. New house has 1" thick walls, a bit overkill but it was built to last over a century.

​@@Maxkil you can get 10 mm in europe as well but 12.5 is the most common. Soundproofing is more common too. I did a job where all the internal walls were sound deadened and double hung first layer with moisture resistant and second with knauf purple board. That stuff is heavy and rediculously hard to cut. Also need special screws to fix it, found that out through trial and error mostly error😅. Great watching you guys work though learnt a heap. Miss the 6m sheets everything is 2.5-3m max here.

All can hang by themselves and are fast. Ive been hanging over 20 years. Ive never seen framing like that though. Its nice to get a square open layout like that. Pretty fast with those screw guns you guys use. Couldnt pay me enough to run those but I gotta give you credit for the speed with them. I could definitely work with these guys, but not running that monstrosity of a gun lol. Hand fed screwing is the best and fastest (for me). Good work though guys!

Yes they are being cheap

[@vangogh1588]

I dunno.. Maybe so that if you fart on one room people in the other don't hear it?

[@smellygoatacres]

No reason to insulate interior walls. Duh

[@markhodges1276]

@h2s142 For sound primarily, but also thermal. If you have a multizone ducted AC system, especially using newer tech with individual zone temperature settings, you can close doors to unused zones and have less thermal transfer, more efficient cooling/heating. But yeah the main reason is sound. It's very commonplace in most other parts of the world to have internal wall insulation, but Australia is so far behind the game with insulating buildings in general. We may not get the same cold weather as the northern hemisphere, but we get extreme heat. We still have new builds with 4mm glass, and limited wall insulation FFS

[@Maxkil]

Yeah we have a cornice that goes up for that., if you want it tight here you would need to buy a wider sheet and cut every sheet down

[@MAGAMAN]

It will never not bother me seeing people do drywall from the ground up instead of the ceiling down.

[@Maxkil]

You know why?

[@Itakiki]

Genuinely curious, but to my knowledge you start from top down so that the inside corner joint for the ceiling has 2 factory edges for finishing. Ifyou don't care about that though going bottom up is easier to hang, since you can balance the top sheet on the bottom sheet. Cool video though!

[@darenrrful]

why dont you put the drywall all the way up

[@markhodges1276]

Cornice (coving) closes the gap. Leaving a gap makes it much easier to hang. If they were going to tape and mud the corners then for sure they would hang a tighter fit.

[@Maxkil]

@markhodges1276 yeah mate, we put the bottom sheet on a block of plasterboard then sit the next one on it. Cornice finishes the top

@@zachwagner1838 when I started we nailed perimeters. Now I never use nails but I glue when I can. Vapor barrier obviously not gluing there. The paper on the face of drywall is so thin these days it is hard to get screws that don't pop through but it is still possible guys just need to pay attention more. I'm still on the fence for cordless guns. I feel to often when I'm finishing I'm turning those in 1/8-1/4 turn before the sheet is actually tight and doesn't move when pushed on. I love gluing because less screws and in the case a screw does break paper the sheet still doesn't move so it's not coming back as a pop later.
