JIS A 6901:2014 PDF Download

The JIS A 6901:2014 standard defines the specifications and requirements for gypsum board products used in building construction. Specifically, it focuses on their use as base and finishing materials for walls and ceilings.

According to the standard, gypsum board (GB) is a product consisting of a gypsum core and a gypsum board lining paper covering both faces and the longitudinal edge of the core. The gypsum core is a key component of the product and provides structural stability.

It is important to note that this standard does not cover sound absorbing perforated gypsum boards (GB-P), as they are addressed in a separate standard, JIS A 6301.

Annex B of the standard provides a comparison table between previous editions and the current edition, highlighting any significant technical revisions that have been made. This allows users of the standard to easily track changes and ensure compliance with the latest requirements.
