I dont know why they have to lie about it. At $5/8ft board you’d think I paid for the full 1.5. Edit: I mixed up nominal with actual.

    Yes, it provided load support but it’s not providing structural load support……

    To be extremely clear, your own, provided definition, is not talking about structural components.

    Yes, on an interior, non-structural wall drywall can stiffen the structure. No, that does not mean the drywall is structural.

      You’ve never heard of a drywall shear wall…?

      God, why is so hard for people to accept drywall is structural lmfao. It’s not stiffening it, read the provided link it explains it quite well multiple times with extra resources for you to follow up if you choose.

      Every component we have talked about can be used structurally, I’m sorry you just apparently haven’t encountered one of the over 1500 different wall assemblies that use them…?
