However, Genetic Algorithms are time-consuming and hard to use unless they target a single task, and their objective functions are well-defined and do not require any adjustment. In the case of plasterboard, the objection functions would be: (i) minimum variation in wall dimensions against (ii...
The use of glass wool or rock wool in these partitions to improve the sound proofing of these systems is known, the gain obtained being approximately 6 dB. However, these wools pose problems during their handling, as they are severe irritants. Moreover, these wools pose storage problems due...

The microstructural observations of five different plasterboard types were performed through optical and scanning electron microscopy. The deterioration of their properties was evaluated by using a three-point bending test and a subsequent ultrasonic (ultrasound testing (UT)) longitudinal wave velocity ...
Moreover, their research pinpointed the production stage as the primary contributor to the environmental impact of both types of tiles throughout their life cycle [22]. Quintana (2018) conducted an LCA comparing conventional plasterboard with composite boards made of various natural fibres and bio-...
