Metal Ceiling

A.

Deliver metal ceiling units to project site in original, unopened packages and store them in fully enclosed space where they will be protected against damage from humidity, direct sun light, surface contamination, and other causes. Handle metal ceiling units carefully to avoid chipping edges or damaging units in any way.

1.5

WARRANTY A. Submit written guarantee signed by the contractor and manufacturer for 1 year from the date of substantial handover. Guarantee shall cover repair and replacement of defective material and workmanship.

1.6

QUALITY ASSURANCE A. Engage an experience installer who has successfully completed metal ceilings similar in material, design and extent to that indicated for the Project.

1.7

PROJECT CONDITIONS A. Do not install metal ceiling unless temperature and humidity conditions closely approximate the interior conditions which will exist when the building is occupied. Maintain temperature and humidity conditions during and after installation. Plastering, concrete and terrazzo work (including grinding) shall be completely dry. Windows and doors shall be in place and glazed.

PART 2 - PRODUCTS 2.1. METAL PAN CEILING A. Suspension System: 1. Manufacturer's standard spring-T concealed grid clip-in type suspension system manufactured from electro-galvanized mild steel comprising of channels to which secondary spring tees are attached, and shall be providing a firm grip for the ceiling panels. Suspension system shall be as recommended by manufacturer of aluminum ceiling panels.

B.

Metal Ceiling Panels: 1. Plain without Acoustic Insert: Manufacturer's standard precoated panels formed from minimum 1 mm thick aluminum flat sheet, alloy 3005-H26; perforated surface, formed to snap on and be securely retained on carriers without separate fasteners. Panel face dimensions of metal ceiling shall be as shown on drawings. Panels shall be cut to fit design and pattern shown in the ceiling plan. a. Finish and Perforation: Electrostatically applied polyester powdercoated finish, 60 80 micron thick; color and perforation shall be as selected by the Engineer from manufacturers standard full color range and finishes.

c.

Suspension System: Manufacturers standard product consisting of galvanized steel carriers with an extruded aluminum shadowline threadform section locked together to form a modular grid with all junctions machined to create mitred birdsmouth intersections on the grid face. Finished face shall be polyester powder coated to RAL1090 White, unless otherwise noted on Drawings.

2.2.

LINEAR METAL CEILING A. Suspension System:

1.

Manufacturer's standard carriers; formed after painting from 1 mm aluminum alloy 3005-H26 into a hat section member, 43 mm deep with protruding cars designed to allow a 16 mm wide space between ceiling panels as well as providing a firm grip for the ceiling panels. Both slanted sides carriers shall have 0.2 mm diameter holes, to accommodate wire hangers as well as along spines to permit attachment to overhead structural supports.

2.

B.

Linear/Strip Metal Ceiling: 1. Linear/Strip Metal Ceiling: Manufacturer's standard units formed after painting from 0.5 mm thick aluminum sheet, alloy 3005-H26; unperforated surface, 100 mm face width by 16 mm deep; length 6.0 m; with 16 mm gap

between units (on longer side) and formed to snap on and be securely retained on carriers without separate fasteners. 2. Finish: Powder-coated finish, 60 80 micron thick; color as shown on drawings or as selected by the Company Representative from manufacturers full range of standard finishes and color.

2.3.

ACCESSORIES: A. Provide the Manufacturer's standard system accessories including access sections, end plugs, etc.

PART 3 - EXECUTION 3.1 INSTALLATION A. Install metal ceiling system in accordance with manufacturer's written instructions to produce finished ceiling to the tolerances specified herein, free of warped, soiled, or damaged grid, panels and other components. Coordinate location of hangers with other work. Verify layout of hangers and locate to accommodate fittings and units of equipment placed after installation of ceiling system. Where ducts or other equipment prevent regular spacing of hangers, reinforce nearest adjacent hangers and related carrying channels required to span the distance. Install hangers/inserts in coordination with overhead work and provide additional hangers/inserts as required. Hang independently of walls, columns, ducts, pipes and conduits. Where carrying members are spliced, avoid visible displacement of longitudinal axis or face plane of adjacent members. Install ceilings in accordance with the final reflected ceiling layout and symmetrical in both directions from the center line of the area. Support fixture loads by supplementary hanger located within 152 mm of each corner when weight of fixture causes the dead load to exceed the deflection capability. Support the fixtures independently. Install angle moldings at intersection of ceiling and vertical surfaces, using maximum lengths, true and level. Miter all corners.

ITCC in Riyadh Residential Complex J10-13300

A. B.

Adjust sags or twists which develop in the ceiling system. Replace damaged or faulty parts. Clean exposed surfaces of metal ceilings, including trims, edge moldings and suspension members. Comply with manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and touch-up of minor finish damage. Remove and replace work which cannot be successfully cleaned and repaired to permanently eliminate evidence of damage. Protect metal ceilings, maintaining such temperature and humidity limitations and dust control, that the work will be without damage and deterioration till the date of substantial completion of the Project.
