Interior sheet rock walls are normally 4-1/2" thick.
this varies from state to state, but in my opinion any wall or ceiling abutting a living space should have a fire barrier. Maybe there is sheet rock behind the OSB
They accumulate and gather up into thick layers, which with time get compacted and lithified to form sedimentary rock.
Very good question. Many people have been wondering this, actually. How thick is the Earth's mantle? Well, I did some research and found out that the Earth's mantle is about 1800 miles thick, or 2900 kilometers thick. It contains about 80 percent of the Earth's mass. Wow!
Earth's mantle is a rocky shell about 2,890 km (1,800 mi) thick that constitutes about 84 percent of Earth's volume. Two main zones are distinguished in the upper mantle: the inner asthenosphere composed of flowing rock in the state of plasticity, about 200 km thick, and the lowermost part of the lithosphere, composed of rigid rock, about 50 to 120 km thick. A thin crust, the upper part of the lithosphere, surrounds the mantle and is about 5 to 75 km thick. The mantle is divided into sections which are based upon results from seismology. These layers (and their depths) are the following: the upper mantle (starting at the Moho, or base of the crust around 7 to 35 km, downward to 410 km), the transition zone (410-660 km), the lower mantle (660-2891 km), and in the bottom of the latter region there is the anomalous D" layer with a variable thickness (on average ~200 km thick)
The large waves has a giant ship on it so that the waves could move the large chunk of rocks Answer When the large wave stirkes the rock, the wave recedes back to the sea taking with it all of the smaller pebbles and sand that support the large rock. If the weight of the water in the wave behind the rock exceeds that of the rock it will take the rock with it. Given time the rock will tumble as the smaller waves take away the supporting material.
For building interior walls.
Very thick earthen, rock, or concrete walls. Or, lead or gold shielding.
How much would it cost to mud my livinging room ceiling, and then texture ceiling and walls? The room is around 14' x 30'.
Since sheet rock is already manufactured, there is nothing to "put in" it. To soundproof on interior walls the best solution is to add insulation between the stud walls--usually rolled insulation works best, is relatively cheap and will not shrink the room size.
The main thing made from gypsum is the building supply called sheet rock. That is what is used for many indoor walls.
Generally, you cannot change wiring in a home with sheet rock without significant damage to the sheet rock. If you abandon the existing wiring, which is technically a code violation, you can drill through the bottom or top of each outlet or switch box into a basement or attic and rewire that way. Replacing lighting wiring in a ceiling without an attic above cannot be done without damage to the sheet rock. An alternative is to surface mount new wiring and boxes. This adds significant cost.
Sheet rock? Never heard of it. Must be a paperweight for sheets.
Yes. The moment a rock touches the barriers on either side of the ice sheet, the rock is ruled out of bounds and dead, and is stopped by the sweepers so that any ricochet does not affect rocks in play.
Construction of houses has not changed all that much in the last 115 years. The average house still has a wooden frame. Instead of using gypsum board (sometimes called "sheet rock" for walls, the walls were made a thin wooden strips called "lath", nailed to the 2X4s. Wet plaster was spread over the lath, forming the walls. Roofs were covered with wood shakes or shingles.
You can make water fountain walls with sheet rock board that is water proof and can handle being wet at all times.

Tar will stick to sheet rock provided the surface is free from grease and dust.
