Explanation:
In the context you described, I would go with the "gipsskivor" suggestion. It is indeed more strenuous than wallpapering.

  -> also good, although "gipsskivor is more widely known, which lends itself to this text.

uppsättning av invändig vägg


Explanation:
Wand[konstruktion] f aus Trockenbauplatten.
