29310 System Design ConsiderationsSystem technical DataCGC leads the industry in developing high-performance systems tomeet specialized requirements for modern building design and in doc-umenting their performance at recognized testing laboratories. Thesesystems provide fire resistance, sound control, structural capacity andesthetics for improved function and utility while reducing constructiontime and cost. All are constructed of quality products and released onlyafter thorough testing and field most instances, fire resistance and often sound-attenuation perfor-mance applies equally to systems constructed with gypsum panels andgypsum bases. Gypsum base with veneer plaster finish provides anacceptable alternative to gypsum panels. Therefore, the term gypsumboard is used throughout this chapter to refer to both types of where performance differs greatly are the products treated CriteriaDesign of any structure must take into account the kinds of conditionsthat will exist and the resulting stresses and movements.
