It is used for archway ceilings or a archways in a hall. The general purpose of 1/4" is for any wall or surface that is not flat. Round walls, coved ceilings.
4' x 12' = 48 sq ft
To find square feet simply multiply length times width. Thus: 11' X 12' =132 square feet. If you needed to figure the amount of sheet rock to cover four walls in one room and the room is 11' X 12' with 8' ceiling height your equation would look like this: 11 x 12 x 4= 528 square feet Now divide the total square feet (528) by the amount of coverage one sheet of drywall offers. ie; one 4 x 8 sheet of drywall covers 32 square feet of space. 528/32=16.5 You would need 16.5 sheets to cover all the wall space with 4' x 8' sheets of drywall.
40 or 50, depending on the specific plant they come from.
32 Feet!
You will need three more bits of information. 1. How high are the walls. 2. What is the length of the room. 3. What is the width of the room. Let me give you an example. Height of walls = 8 ft. Length = 50 ft. Width = 20 ft. Each piece of drywall is 8' X 4'. In this case, the height of the walls exactly matches the height of the drywall; so you won't have to make any cuts in that dimension. Figure out how many sheets you will need for the 50' walls. 50' / 4' = 12 1/2 pieces of drywall. There are two of those 50' walls; so multiply by 2. 12 1/2 X 2 = 25 pieces. Now for the short walls. 20' / 4' = 5 pieces of drywall. Again, there are 2 short walls, so multiply by 2. 5 X 2 = 10 pieces of dry wall. Add what you need for the long walls and short walls. 25 + 10 = 35 drywall sheets. Answer: 35 drywall sheets.
16 sheets. - don't plan a career as a drywaller if that was too hard for you to figure out -
Measure it 4 ft at a time -you won't be far out at the end.

3 1/2 inches before drywall standard walls have 1/2 inch drywall so 4 1/2 inches for a standard wall
The maximum ceiling drywall size that can be used for a standard room is typically 4 feet by 12 feet.
If the framing is wood, you use the #6 x 1-1/8 drywall screw. If the framing is metal, you can still use those screws, but I find it goes faster if I use #4 x 1 inch drill tippedscrews. About 50% more to buy (at Drywall warehouses) but they save lots of time.
Approximately 110 pounds.
4' x 12' = 48 sq ft
I use basic drywall primer over all of those.
To properly screw drywall for a secure and professional installation, follow these steps: Use the correct type and length of drywall screws (1 1/4 to 1 5/8 inches). Place screws every 12 inches along the edges and every 16 inches in the center of the drywall panels. Drive the screws flush with the surface of the drywall without breaking the paper. Avoid over-tightening the screws, as this can damage the drywall. Use a screw gun or drill with a clutch setting to control the screw depth. Check for any gaps or bulges in the drywall after screwing to ensure a smooth finish.
The modern home has walls that are about 5-inches thick. The studs are 4-inches thick then a .5-inch drywall is added to each side.
