We use those in Poland, but over the brick/concrete walls, not instead of them.

- olyjohn 4y agoWe don't make the walls out of it either. It's not structural, and it's commonly laid onto wood framing in most houses.
- frosted-flakes 4y agoApparently in New Zealand it is structural. They have special structural-rated Gib (the local name for drywall) that is used for shear strength on exterior walls. They have a special screw schedule (every 5 cm) and it needs to be inspected before the tapers come in. This is because they don't use exterior sheathing for some reason, just building paper.
