In the gypsum board section? In the Cold-Formed Metal Framing Section? If you don't know Sure-Board, here is the website: www.sureboard.com David G.

Maybe 09-2833 - Steel-Faced Backing Board. That avoids having a bunch of sections, each based on a type of backing. Interesting stuff, thanks for the heads-up! David G.

Contractors hate it because it is heavy and hard to cut. David G.

It's being used as a roof cover board for a re-roofing in CA, so it's in the roofing section. It was evidently recommended by the structural engineer to be provided over the existing deck.
