    No you do not. Booktabs is especially made to deter the use of vertical lines in tables. Also please show some code as else this question will probably be put on hold as a please do this for me` question. Commented Aug 21, 2019 at 9:32
  • Vertical rules are not recommended with booktabs, as they do not intersect booktabs rules, due to the vertical padding around the latter. Commented Aug 21, 2019 at 9:32

    If you read booktabs documentation, you will find that booktabs does not support vertical rules. Unless you redefine the rules commands, you will see white gaps between horizontal and vertical rules. If you need all this rules, you should look at tabular environment, and the multicolumn command together with the hhline- and array package. Or usethe package cals, which relatively easily will product the requested tables. Commented Aug 21, 2019 at 9:33
