What is the difference between the rendering and plastering in building construction?

Rendering is the term used for covering stone or brick etc. plastering is the term used for the application of the material. These days anything external is referred to as rendering and anything inside is plastering. If someone was to use the term rendering for internal works, I would assume they meant solid plastering as opposed to dry-walling with plasterboard." or The term "Rendering" is used to describe the application of a coat - usually sand or cement, internally or externally, alternative mixes - i.e. sand lime can be used. "Spray rendering" is another method used for exteriors. "Plastering" is the term used to describe the application of a wide range of materials to walls and ceilings."
