Don't use gypsum board pang interior lang yan.
For your exterior cladding you can use hardiplank or hardipattern same manufacturer of hardiflex (James Hardie). You need to caulk the joints para hindi pasukin ng tubig.
You can check their website & download installation procedure.

There's an exhibit on SMX "Manilacon" Sept 2-5, you can check the house made of steel & fiberboard by james hardie, I think 5 days lang nila ginawa.
Madami ka makuha idea at supplier ng materials for your garage project.
I'm planning to visit on Friday or Saturday when my schedule permits.
