Drywall Codes


Ok I know codes vary by township. I have pretty much always done commercial work. I just got into doing residential for someone and they are telling me all kinds of dumb stuff I never heard of anyone failing for. Anyone know the basic codes in northeast PA for stuff like gaps around the boxes, screws ( I do 6 inches on the end and 8 in the field), etc... Thanks

Re: Drywall Codes


Boca codes are usally universal. I haven't seen them not apply anywhere in the US.
