Default Batten Spacing For Plasterboard

I'm using 2400 x 1200 12.5 Gyproc to board my bathroom walls on to
battens screwed to the walls. Should the vertical ones be at 400mm
centres or would 600 mm be ok.??


Personally, I would use 400mm in case someone leans against the wall,
especially if the wall is tiled, or in a frequently trafficed area (i.e.
where people are squeezing past each other). Switch to 12mm WBP ply round
the shower area.
