I discovered years ago the easiest and best way to hang sheetrock is to hire a crew of Mexicans.

Same applies to concrete work.

Heavy duty, fire proof stuff!
Escape stories out of the WTC include a janitor stuck in an elevator using a squeegee to dig through two layers of 1" drywall to free himself and some other passengers.

County Code in Archuleta county Colorado says any room with a fire burning appliance "MUST" have 5/8" drywall....or as they term it, "fire rock".
I delivered tons of 4×12×5/8" drywall! That she-I-tee is heavy!

Broke my back back in 2012 carrying 140 sheets (2 ) 4x12x5/8 up 4 flights of stairs.

Surgery in 2014.

Be careful with that shcit , us old timers tend to overdo it and get f*cked up.

We had a wooden bench to step up on and use your head to hold it in place. That little ball on top of your cap wasn't there on the second piece.

We didn't hang rock unless we had to.
