Best Answer

Insulation and sheetrock are related only in the sense that they are used in walls. When one side is drywalled insulation batts can be stuffed in the other side and then boarded up.

No, that is futile. The insulation goes inside the wall.

Does the 2006 International Building Code require overlapping the flaps of rolled insulation when insulating exterior walls or can the insulation be stapled to the interior of the stud?

Insulation should only be stapled on the edge of the stud. That's what the flap on the edges is for. This creates a vapor barrier and if you compress the insulation enough to staple on the sides this reduces the insulation at that point. Insulation has to be fluffed to get the benefit. It is easier, quicker and does not interfere with the sheetrock in any way.

Can you put sheetrock over tiles?

You cannot use sheetrock as flooring, period. If you meant on a wall, there is no reason you cannot put sheetrock over tiles. The question is why would you want to! Why not remove tiles and material behind, which is probably sheetrock, and then install new sheetrock. If it is an area prone to moisture you could use moisture resistant sheetrock. The job would look better and you would not lose the space by adding over existing material.
