MONTHLY TIP
|
|
|
| |
CertainTeed Gypsum |
The protrusion of screw or nail heads above the gypsum panel surface is caused by one or more of the following:
- Lumber shrinkage occurring after gypsum panel product application,
- Loose attachment of the gypsum panel product to the framing,
- Improperly aligned, twisted, bent, warped, or bowed framing,
- Incorrect fastener length, or
- Improper fastening
Fastener pops are largely caused by lumber shrinkage due to initially high moisture content lumber. CertainTeed Gypsum has some great tips on nail pops.
