Can anyone recommend the best way to plasterboard a steel beam so that it meets the appropriate building regs, as above the beam is a habital room. Also what size board to use.

double skin fire line boards making sure you stagger the joints and seal the joints on the first skin. fix wooden soldiers in between the steel to fix the board.
 
'Wooden soliders' are basically pieces of timber cut to fit very tightly inbetween the flanges of the UB, so you can nail/screw the p/board to it.
