Filler Boards
When installing Joist Trak panels to the face of a wall or ceiling, it is
necessary to provide ⁵⁄₈-inch thick filler boards between the channels
of the Trak panels (⁵⁄₈-inch sheetrock is commonly used). For 8-inch
on-center wall spacing, use 7-inch wide filler boards. For 12-inch on-
center ceiling spacing, use 11-inch wide filler boards.
The filler boards or sheetrock provide an even surface for finish
material application. Install
³⁄₈
- or
¹⁄₂
-inch sheetrock directly over the
filler boards.
