Ceiling tiles, ceiling grid - any regulations on materials, surface, etc.
I wouldn't use ceiling tiles at all. Basically, you don't want anything that could crumble and fall in to food. Things to consider in food plant design 1) Nothing extra gets into the food. (falling, crumbling, chipping etc. this includes building materials, dust, animal droppings, etc.) 2) germs (all sorts) are not allowed to grow. Design the surfaces to be cleaned with air. Germs love water and no matter how much you try you won't be able to completely dry something immediately after it's wetted. Don't give the little nasties places to grow.
Describe your system and architecture. How do you COOL your house? My biggest concern is how to cool a home off the grid.
Try okorder for ideas on this and many other green living issues.
Is there any requirements regarding hard wired smoke detectors on a suspended ceiling?I know luminaires are supposed to be properly secured to the grid, do smoke and CO detectors need to be? If so how?Right now, all I have is some old work boxes for the splices.I'm looking for a correct answer, I'm not going to cut corners.NEC code references are a plus.
The cirping is the result of either a bad detector or other problem. Try turning off the breaker that supplies power to the detectors for 10-15 seconds and turning it back on. If it was nothing serious then this should clear the chirping but if the noise returns you may need to replace the detector and if you need to do that i would suggest a hard wired unit with battery back up.
the kind meant for office and school ceilings that fit in a ceiling grid(4, t8 tubes), i was thinking of using 4, 8 inch jack chains and securing it with s hooks and eye hooks. is this alright or will i have to find another way? I'm using #10 eye hooks and 1 s hooks.
Yes, you can suspend them with jack chain and eye hooks. I installed literally thousands of those lights (we called them troffers when I was a commercial electrician. In fact, in most cases even if we were dropping them in the grid for main support we also had to suspend two or four ceiling tie wires or jack chain supports to each fixture for earthquake security.
What is the light steel keel double gypsum board partition wall

I have a suspended ceiling that is 2' x 4'- the guy at Lowe's told me I can use the USG Lace 12 x 12 tiles to interlock to have 8 of them fit in a grid...is this actually possible? Everything I have seen online says that those are to staple or glue up- not to be placed in a 2' x 4' grid.
I wouldn t think you could either. I would think that middle seam would sag after awhile,. Go with your gut and don t ... GL
OK so im painting my walls like a grid art painting, but im painting them on big poster board so i can change it when i want... good idea or no? i have 4 walls and a little wall for my door and every walls going to be different and when its done its going to tell a story with pictures ....do you know what kind of paint would be best? for the poster board? is this a good idea?
So what you're doing, is using large poster bristol board, and on each, you are painting images, that in total, creates a story or day in a life scene, poster paints or craft acrylics may do, maybe do a set of paintings that explain you whole day, or week, or year, maybe do a walk-through on one painting, and each piece is one step, the final piece complete, maybe do a whole vine that grows from one board into the next, and each board has a flower, maybe do a typographic set of words, that in total create the image that words represent, maybe do a set of colors, each one blends or creates contrast with the next, maybe do a sudoku with colors in checker board so there are 9 colors but align like numbers maybe do a black & white design, and one color on each board, that represents something personal, maybe do a different grid, circles or triangles, and create a mosaic mix of time sequences, maybe do a floor or ceiling design on walls to turn room on side or end, maybe do a set of hair styles from top to bottom, or giant makeup-kit, hundreds of nail polished designs, have fun mostly, :) ..
I want to put in a drop ceiling and recessed lights in a basement. Do I hang the ceiling first and then install the can lights? Or do I do the lights first and then do the ceiling?
