The article below covers the characteristics of the suspended ceiling as a part of office/commercial fitout and suspended ceiling contractors services.
The suspended ceilings, as a part of office/commercial fit out and office design services, are used as a secondary ceiling formed to cover piping, wiring, or ductwork and offer acoustic balance and control in a room. A suspended ceiling as a secondary ceiling is hung below the main (structural) ceiling. They are also branded as drop ceiling, false ceiling, or suspended ceiling, and are a staple of modern construction and architecture. The plenum area is on top of the suspended ceiling and it is used for HVAC air return. By cut-edge laser technology, the suspended ceilings can be installed to the highest standard.
Suspended ceiling is the cost effective way for giving clean and fresh atmosphere to any room or office. It may be in the form of a large choice of materials like mineral, metal, plaster ceilings and grid systems and accessories. Ceilings can also be made of a number of materials like mineral fibres, metal and wood, and have almost any colour. As per the requirements, fluorescent equipment, diffusers for air supply, grilles for return air, incandescent lamps, electrical equipment, and sprinkler systems can be installed on the grid ceiling.
Easily-removed ceiling panes offer an additional benefit by allowing painless access to the plenum that simplifies repairs and alterations.
Suspended ceilings have grid-work of metal channel s in the shape of a downward “T”, hanging on wires from the overhead structure. The channels snap together in a regularly spaced pattern and have 60×60 or 60×120 cm grid panels. Each panel is filled with lightweight “tiles” or “panels” which simply drop into the grid.
The suspended ceiling was mainly developed for concealing the underside of the floor above and providing acoustic stability and control in a space. For years, the acoustic performance of suspended ceilings has been improved by enhancing the materials for absorbing and fading the sound. Sound Attenuation Batts (SABs) are the enhanced materials that are used as insulation material by fading and absorbing the sound.
