Model THD-1500 - Ceiling Grid System, 1-1/2" T-Beams
Application
Hospital operating suites, laboratories, and clean rooms where ceiling access is desirable
Eases installation of devices such as laminar flow panels and fluorescent light fixtures located adjacent to each other as compared to a hard ceiling surface
Grid system typically occupies central portion of ceiling, with a gypsum / sheet rock perimeter
Support hangers sized and spaced to provide support for a maximum ceiling load of 10 lbs./ft2 ceiling surface.
Product Features
Factory welded grid system on 12-1/8" Modulus
(Ex. 24-1/4" x 48-1/2" Centerlines)
Individual sections fabricated up to 5' x 10' as standard for ease of transport, handling, and installing. Larger sections available as applicable / practical
Designed via structural analysis software for rigidity – insures a tight seal from the contaminated plenum space above
Supports a minimum of 10 lbs load / square foot
Factory furnished compression clips hold components tight to frame to prevent leakage (field installed)
Full T-Beam Features
1-1/2" Wide Full T-Beams exceeding .52 lbs/lineal foot
1-3/4" high vertical leg minimizes interference with installed ceiling components and hanger wire or threaded rod
Minimum wall thickness of .125"
Half T-Beam Features
3/4" Half T-Beams with “Lock-Align” design for positive alignment between mating sections
Pairs of Half T-Beams mate together to form a dimensional equivalent of a Full T-Beam (field attached with threaded fasteners and clips)
Support Methods
Holes die punched at 12" intervals in vertical legs of frame for hanger wire support is standard (optional 6" intervals).
Optional threaded rod brackets are available
24" support intervals in both directions are typical. Ceiling load, support specifications, and building codes may allow for larger spacing intervals.
Materials
6000 Series Extruded Aluminum alloy for strength/rigidity, corrosion protection, and clean lines.
Closed-cell Polyethylene gasket material (PSA)
for field installation (optional).
