Plaster-type finishes have always been the most popular for walls and ceilings in wood frame buildings. They are comparatively cheap. Usually they are much cheaper than other types of finish.
Among their advantages there is also a high degree of fire-resistance that gives considerable protection to the combustible frame. After the Second World War gypsum board became highly popular because of its lower cost and comparative ease of installation.
As to veneer plaster systems, they came into use also not long ago. In most small buildings, all wall and ceiling surfaces are covered with plaster or gypsum board. Some buildings are known to require fire walls, or fire separation walls between living units; in such buildings a gypsum board wall for fire resistance can be installed. Such an installation eliminates the need to put up a wall of brick or concrete masonry.

What are the advantages of plywood siding materials?
Plywood siding materials are widely used in modern construction-business. They are popular because of their light weight and their relative cheapness. The cost of the material per unit area of wall is usually less than for other siding materials. Besides, the labor costs are also relatively low. The reason for it is the fact that large sheets of plywood are more quickly installed than the boards of the same area. In many cases, if it is necessary, the sheathing can be eliminated from the building if plywood is used for siding. This operation, if it is performed, leads to further cost saving. It should be taken into account that usually plywood sidings must be painted in order to save them from decay. But if they are produced from decay-resistant material, they can be left to weather effects without the surface coverage.
