It has been 25 years since the Drywall and Plaster Systems Manual was last released. It has been an icon in the wall and ceiling industry for decades, but sorely in need of updating. With three revisions, and so many recent changes in our industry, it was time for a completely new manual. After years of compiling data, research, interviews and real-life experiences, the new manual is ready.
The first edition of the manual has its roots dating back to 1957. It was then the California Lathing and Plastering Contractors Association that began publishing industry recognized specifications and recommendations to the plaster industry.
