vattentät beläggning / fuktspärr(sskikt)

Explanation:
clad/cladding betyder nästan alltid beläggning, täckskikt etc.

Dry cladding bör betyda att det håller materialet bakom beläggningen torrt, dvs. en vattentät beläggning. Detta bör passa i ditt WC/våtrumssammanhang där detta närmast är standard (i alla i-länder utom England möjligen...)

Ska man vara noga är våtrum även fuktspärrade; vattentät är ett lite vagare, mindre krävande begrepp - det kan tolkas som stänkskyddat.

Explanation:
Maria, could dry-clad be Dry-Clad? As in a product name for a particular plaster board used in situations where you need a certain quality such as hardness, waxy surface, fire protection..?
US English uses the term drywall as mentioned by Salthatten, could this be it?
Have you got any further context?
