Drywallers hang drywall ceiling / lid

Demonstration how to hang drywall ceiling.
When hanging a ceiling try to start along a straight wall. Always stagger the butt joints. 3 screws in field, = 1 screw every 12 inches or if using liquid nail then 2 in field = 1 screw every 16 inches.

Aren't you supposed to stagger the joints??? Just sayin

[phillydrywaller]

@Fyrjake051 yes, and we are staggering the butt joints. The tapered side of the sheet does not get staggered.

Ok dude. Looks good! Does anyone know what would be an allowable gap between sheets of drywall? Is there any rule on gap spacing on beveled edges versus butt joints? Thanks!

Just a reminder, it would be a lot easier on both of you if you guys don't hold the sheet above your head at the far end of the sheet, creates a bad sag and creates heaviness.
