3 GRID SPACING AND TILE SIZING Center-on-Center Grid Spacing Inside Grid Dimension Tile size If you want the Grid Spacing to be on a 600 x 600mm or 600 x 200mm module size, use this table to determine tile size requirement: Grid Profile Grid Spacing (L x W) Tile Size (L x W) Bottom Slot & ¼ -20 Hidden Slot M0-.5 & Bottom Slot 600 x 600mm 582 x 582mm +/- 4mm 600 x 200mm 582 x 82mm +/- 4mm 600 x 600mm 580 x 580mm +/- 3mm 600 x 200mm 580 x 80mm +/- 3mm (see example below) Note: Maximum Tile Size = Inside Grid Dimension minus mm. Minimum Tile Size is based on a minimum overlap on the extrusion flange of mm when the tile is shifted all the way to one side. If you want the Grid Spacing to be on a larger module size to fit standard 600 x 600mm or 600 x 200mm nominal tile sizes, use this table: Grid Profile Grid Spacing (L x W) Tile Size (L x W) Bottom Slot & ¼ -20 Hidden Slot M0-.5 & Bottom Slot 60 x 60mm 593 x 593mm +/- 4mm 60 x 20mm 593 x 93mm +/- 4mm 63 x 63mm 593 x 593mm +/- 4mm 63 x 23mm 593 x 93mm +/- 4mm (see example below) Note: Maximum Tile Size = Inside Grid Dimension minus mm. Minimum Tile Size is based on a minimum overlap on the extrusion flange of mm when the tile is shifted all the way to one side. Sizing Based on 600 x 200mm Grid Spacing Sizing Based on 600 x 200mm Nominal Tile Size 580mm 593mm 80mm 93mm 200mm 23mm 600mm 63mm 750 Montevideo Road Tel (40) Rev - 05// of 9

4 PERFORMANCE CRITERIA The bottom side of the structural grid is available with an M0-.5, 3 8-6, or continuous ed slot for mounting items directly to the grid. Refer to the table below for load performance details on the grid and connections.

5 FIELD CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY Structural Tee coped for simplified installation and stronger connections Main Runners notched to positively position connectors on center every time Ribs on connector to align with grid and prevent racking XL CONNECTOR Main Runner Notch XL Connector is designed for additional support at the ends of each Main Runner. 750 Montevideo Road Tel (40) Rev - 05// of 9

6 PERIMETER CONNECTOR Bottom of Perimeter Connector is designed with ribs that locate the connector on Perimeter Extrusion. Perimeter Connector can be cut on site to be used in various locations to connect grid together. MAIN RUNNERS AND STRUCTURAL TEES All 600mm and 200mm Structural Tees have coped ends which allows the grid to rest on the longer sections for stronger connections and simplified installation. All 200mm Structural Tees and Main Runners are notched every 600mm on center for proper alignment and spacing of the connectors. 3600mm Note: Structural Tee and Main Runner dimensions are nominal and are adjusted for custom-sized ceiling grid designs 750 Montevideo Road Tel (40) Rev - 05// of 9

7 PERIMETER ANGLES XL Connector (Field-Cut) for Floating Installation Perimeter Connector Main Runner Wall Angle (By Others) Perimeter Angle Floating Installation Detail Fixed Installation Detail Main Runners are utilized when installing with a floating detail. When installing with a floating perimeter, XL Connectors can be utilized to take advantage of the notches and ribs that align extrusions and prevent racking. Additionally it is recommended to utilize a Wall Angle attached to the perimeter. Perimeter Extrusions are designed to create a clean corner joint assembly. Perimeter Angles can be cut on site to desired length when assembled along perimeter walls. Perimeter Angles can also be bolted directly to the wall with appropriate fasteners for wall type. Note, pre-drilling is recommended and through holes are suggested for simpler light fixture or drop ceiling tile installation. 750 Montevideo Road Tel (40) Rev - 05// of 9
