Gypsum Board Assemblies: submittal requirements
Finishes submittals are where product data meets appearance. Reviewers verify performance (fire, acoustics, slip, wear layer) and architects verify look — most Division 09 packages need both data sheets and physical samples.
What reviewers expect in a gypsum board assemblies package
- Product data with fire ratings (flame spread / smoke developed) for each finish
- Flooring data with wear layer, thickness, and slip resistance; carpet with face weight and backing
- Acoustical ceiling data with NRC, CAC, and seismic compliance
- Physical samples or color selections for every exposed finish
- Maintenance and warranty documentation for flooring systems
- Moisture testing requirements and adhesive compatibility for flooring over concrete
Field tip
Check the moisture spec before submitting flooring adhesives — if the slab needs an RH test the adhesive data sheet must cover the measured range, or the whole package stalls.
