Conventional Ceiling - GC Series
System Description:
EL-KHAYYAT Ceiling solutions - comprising of a grid of completely concealed suspended metal frames (void of wire hangers and wire-clips) lined with gypsum platerboards, with its joint treated (taped and filled) to achieve the even, smooth and homogenous surface to receive paint or further decoration.
Light weight and versatile
Supports in concealing cableways, ducts etc Quick and Easy to install
Cost effective
Reduced Project completion time
Performance
Fire protection - up to 2 hrs
Sound Insulation - up to 70 dB (when used under a concrete floor)
Enhancement of fire & acoustic performance can be achieved by increasing the number of layers of plasterboards Filling the cavity with insulation on the back of the ceiling enhances of acoustic performance
GC Series- Suspended concealed system with Single or multiple layer Gypsum plaster boards, suitable for fire rated and non-fire rated ceiling systems.
Item | Description |
---|---|
Gypsum Plasterboard | Based on the performance requirement, the plasterboard needs to be selected - RG for general applications; MR for humid & aerated area application; FW for enhanced fire resistance; etc. |
Perimeter support | Wall angle fixed at the perimeter on which Furring channel at 90° is supported. The plasterboard is screw fixed to its underside. |
Primary Carrying Channel | Main Channel (MC) - Horizontal member at max. 1200mm* centres, with 38mm minimum web width. |
MC- Suspensions | Vertical member of variable length- identical to the Main Channel, screw fixed to the Main Channel at max. 1200mm* intervals. |
Secondary Carrying Channel | Hat shaped Furring channel running cross-wise and screw fixed to the Main Channel at max. 600mm* centres. |
Anchors/plugs | Used for fixing the MC-suspensions to the slabs and wall angles to the wall respectively at max. 600mm centres. |
Drywall screws | Used for screw fixing the boards to the metal structures; available as self tapping or self drilling. |
Joint tape and Filler | Used to get a even smooth and homogenous surface at the joints. |
Sealant | Applied at the perimeter areas, to achieve the necessary fire and acoustic performance. |
Insulation | Used as quilt covering the entire ceiling system will increase sound insulation in the void; Rockwool slabs are used to enhance the fire insulation. |
* Stud spacing and metal thickness will be determined by the partition height, deflection limit and lateral pressure. Min. recommended metal thickness is 0.55mm for fire rated partitions.
