Lightweight plasterboard is a product composed of “plaster foam” core whose porosity can reach 75 vol%, lined with two sheets of paper. To optimize the trade-off between thermal resistance and mechanical strength, it is important to understand and characterize the mechanical behavior of plasterboard. Core compaction of plasterboard is one of the prevalent degradation mechanisms. This mechanism is...
To design lightweight plasterboard and optimize the compromise between thermal resistance and mechanical strength, it is important to characterize its strength as assessed with the normative “Nail pull” test. Understanding the phenomenology of this test is the key to identifying the limiting factor in terms of load carrying capacity. In this work, the degradation mechanisms of lightweight plasterboard...
