About this title

Synopsis

Explore how metal lath and gypsum plaster come together for fire-aware interior finishes.

This book-like material examines the practical steps, materials, and workmanship that ensure a plaster finish can perform under fire conditions while remaining durable and visually solid. It covers how lath is prepared, how plaster coats are laid and finished, and how the system is adapted for ceilings, walls, and partitions.

The discussion moves from the nuts and bolts of installation to the testing and evaluation of performance. It explains attitudes toward mixing plaster, preparing sand and lime putty, applying scratch, brown, and finish coats, and managing moisture and temperature during cures. Technical standards and testing procedures are described to show how these constructions are judged for safety and reliability.

How expanded metal lath supports plaster and how the coats bond to it
Steps for mixing, applying, and finishing scratch, brown, and finish plaster coats
Fire-test concepts and how standards assess performance of the assembly
Durability and practical considerations for installation, maintenance, and repair

Ideal for readers involved in construction, building safety, or design who want a clear, practical view of metal lath and plaster systems and their fire performance.
