Considered a construction industry bible, the Gyprock Red Book puts all the performance detail and technical guidance you need to specify residential and commercial wall, ceiling, column and beam systems at your fingertips.

The Red Book

The Red Book is one of the industry’s most recognised and respected technical publications. It provides fire, acoustic and thermal information on hundreds of wall and ceiling systems to support architects, engineers, and other design professionals in their day-to-day design work.

As a result of the revisions and expansions to the original 1999 edition, The Red Book continues to provide comprehensive design information and complete system solutions from CSR Gyprock, Australia’s leading Plasterboard Manufacturer.
