As per current revisions of ASTM C1063, metal lath applied to solid substrates. must have Â¼â self-furring properties, built into the lath sheet. Therefore, AMICO. recommends the use of self-furred (SF) lath over solid substrates, as required by. current codes.
Gypsum lath is commonly used in place of wood since it is noncombustible, easy to use, and gives better results. The popularity of the lath and plaster method declined in the 1950s, as it was replaced by the less expensive drywall method.
