CONCEALED GRID CEILING:
"Reducing the height also helps in reducing the capacity of the air conditioner." Covering
the upper area has several advantages, including concealing wiring, lighting fixtures, air-
conditioning ducts, security cameras, and other fixtures.
The ceiling also serves as an attractive base for various decorative electric lights and fans.
Apart from that, a ceiling helps to eliminate echo in the room. Ceilings in bathrooms can be
installed to conceal pipes or other fixtures above.
Disadvantages of false ceiling:
One disadvantage of this ceiling system is the lack of headroom. To install the ceiling tiles and light fixtures, there
must be enough space between the grid and any pipes or ductwork above. In general, a minimum clearance of
100 to 200 millimetres (4 to 8 in) is frequently required between the lowest obstruction and the ceiling grid level.
For those who want the convenience of a dropped ceiling but have limited headroom, a direct-mount grid may
be appropriate. Stretch ceiling supports require less than one inch of vertical space, and there is no space
required for tiles to be lifted out with a stretch ceiling; however, a larger clearance space may be chosen to allow
room for MEC or for aesthetic reasons.
Dropped ceilings typically conceal many of a building's functional and structural elements, resulting in an
aesthetic paradigm that discourages the use of functional building systems as aesthetic design elements.
The concealment of these elements makes it more difficult to appreciate the complexity of today's advanced
building technologies. It is also more difficult to maintain and diagnose problems with concealed systems.
Dropped ceilings are a quick and inexpensive way to repair a ceiling or reduce HVAC costs as a renovation tool.
Mineral fibre, for example, sags, is easily damaged when handled, and stains easily, whereas stretch ceiling, tin,
and vinyl do not have these characteristics.
WOODEN FALSE CEILING
Introduction
→ IT IS USED BOTH FOR PROVIDING ROOFING AND FOR
AESTHETICAL PURPOSE IN A BUILDING.
→ IT CAN BE USED BOTH FOR DOM
ESTIC AND COMMERCIAL PURPOSE.
Types of wooden false ceiling:-
Drop ceiling
Ceiling tiles
Plank ceiling(tongue and groove)
Coffered ceiling
Suspended ceiling
Suspended ceiling
A non structural ceiling suspended below the overhead structural
slab or from the structural elements of a building and not bearing
onto the walls is known as suspended ceiling.
DROP CEILING
A DROP CEILING HAS TWO PARTS:
DROP PANELS AND A SUSPENDED
METAL GRID, WHICH HANGS BELOW
AN EXISTING CEILING.
Ceiling tiles
Ceiling tiles are standard 12" x 12" or 16" x 16"
squares that are attached to ot existing
ceiling with easy-to-install tracks and clips,
nails, or glue.
Plank ceiling(tongue and groove)
Tongue and groove ceilings look like real
wood and can be attached directly to an
existing ceiling or inserted into a
suspended grid system.
Coffered ceiling
Coffered ceilings are formed with recessed
panels surrounded by dropped beams that
create a grid pattern. It's a classic ceiling
design from Greek and Roman architecture
GYPSUM BOARD CEILING:
RATE
Rs.350/- per sheet
PVC CEILING:
Fixing a aluminum or wooden framework to act as supporting structure Apply the insulation
directly to the existing ceiling or roofing beams.
Step 2
Step 3:-
Measure the desired height from the floor and make it off the 4
corners.
Fix the first row of ceiling panels Screw the first ceiling panel to
the left side against the wall, using 25 mm plasterboard screws
with a spacing between srews of 20 cm.
Step 7:-
Off.
Step 8:-
Finishing the joints.
Make sure the joints are clean and dust free.
Fill the gap with grouting paste and a putty knife. Drying for 24
hours, apply the second layer if necessary and sand smooth after
drying
Step 9:-
Edging profile.
For a neat finish in the corners, cut the ends of the finishing strips at
45 degree.
Acoustic foam panels:
Acoustic foam panels are a type of sound-absorbing
material that is often used in recording studios, home
theaters, and other spaces where sound quality is
important. These panels are designed to reduce the
amount of sound reflections in a room by absorbing
sound waves and preventing them from bouncing off
surfaces.
When installing acoustic foam panels, it is important to
consider the size and shape of the room, as well as the
location of any sound sources. Placing the panels
strategically can help to minimize unwanted reflections
and improve the overall sound quality of the space.
It is worth noting that while acoustic foam panels can
be effective in reducing sound reflections, they may not
completely eliminate all noise. In some cases,
additional soundproofing materials may be necessary
to achieve the desired level of sound control.
