I have been involved with many of the architectural construction trades during my career as an estimator, but my focus and area of expertise is and always has been drywall construction systems. In particular, for high-rise and complex projects--the kind New York City is famous for.

Each of these components has multiple variations that are applicable to multiple assemblages.
