Embodiment Construction

[0015]FIGS. 1A and 1B show a front and cross sectional view, respectively, of a drywall board system 10 having a drywall board 11 for securing to framing members 12. As explained in more detail below, FIG. 1A does not include a baseboard 28, whereas FIG. 1B includes a baseboard 28. Framing members 12 can include wood or metal studs to which the drywall board 11 may be screwed or nailed. The drywall board 11 has a back side 14 and a front side 16 opposite the back side 14. The back side 14 is the side of the drywall board 11 that is adjacent to the framing members 12 when the drywall board 11 is screwed or nailed thereto. The front side 16, on the other hand, is the opposite side of the drywall board 11 that, after installation, is usually painted, plastered, wall papered or otherwise finished. The back side 14 has framing drywall liner 18, such as drywall paper. The front side 16 has finishing drywall liner 20, such as drywall paper. The framing drywall liner 18 and the finishing dr...

Abstract

Described herein is a method for creating a reveal in a wall with the use of a drywall board and baseboard. A backing is secured to the back side of the drywall board or the baseboard, which is then affixed to studs on the wall. The other of the drywall board and the baseboard is also affixed to the studs so that there is an overlap with the backing. A reveal is thereby created that exposes the backing.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to a drywall apparatus and method, and more particularly to a system for creating a reveal between a baseboard and a drywall board, and method for doing same.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]One aesthetically pleasing way to construct a wall using gypsum or drywall board involves leaving a gap of approximately 1 cm between a baseboard and a drywall board above it. This gap is referred to as a “reveal.” A typical method for creating a drywall reveal is to use a “Z-shaped” moulding that is glued and / or stapled on the front side of the drywall at the bottom thereof. In position, the moulding gives a clean line along the bottom front edge of the board. The moulding is also designed to cover the back of the recessed space or gap between the drywall board and the baseboard to hide the studs or insulation behind the board.[0003]The moulding is fastened to a standard drywall board at the job site. Drywall compound is then added to the mould...
