How to enclose the walls on my veranda?

Hi, I'm wanting to turn a section of my deck/veranda into a bit of an entertaining area/sports bar this section is undercover and already has the framework done.

The other end of the deck is open so there will be more moisture getting in compared to inside the house so I'm unsure if I can use ordinary drywall or if Ill need something specific, photos attached

Hi @mklein90,

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and thank you for your question.

If you want to use plasterboard, you'll need to use Aquachek which has a treated core, face and back, making it resistant to moisture and humidity without compromising integrity.

You should also consider insulating the cavity to help reduce condensation buildup. You can use Foilboard, following the Shed Installation Guide to insulate the cavity.

Let me know what you think and if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
