Install ceiling system in a true and even plane with straight line courses laid out symmetrically about center lines of area or as indicated. Border tile shall be minimum 6" wide and neatly fit against vertical surfaces to form a tight fit. 3. Provide metal edge angle at perimeter of units as detailed on Drawings. Cut and fit around light fixtures, diffusers, etc. B. Lay-In Ceiling System: 1. Hanging main tees parallel in a flat plane by means of #10 gauge wire hangers attached to construction above. Hangers shall be spaced not over 4'-0" along the main tees and within 6" of the ends and splices of main tees, and other interruptions. Main tees shall be spaced 2'- 0" o.c.

2. Attachment to ducts, pipes, etc. will not be permitted. Bridge under obstructions with a grid of 1-1/2" cold rolled channels or other suitable members to support ceiling grid. 3. Install wall angle at perimeter of walls, partitions, columns, pipes, and other obstructions that extend above the ceiling. Securely attach with appropriate fastening devices at maximum 16" o.c. Form reveal of same depth and width as that formed between edge of panel and flange at exposed suspension grid. Neatly cut and fit around light fixtures, diffusers, etc. Provide wall angles fabricated to diameter required to fit penetrations. 4. Insert ceiling panels, installing hold down clips on panels extending over partitions and where required to maintain fire ratings. 5. At all locations where ceiling tiles are cut, the cut edges of the tiles shall match the premanufactured edges (i.e. cut edges are to be beveled to match beveled edged tiles). Exposed cut edges are to be painted to match face of tile with paint as approved by tile manufacturer. 3.03 ADJUSTING AND CLEANING A. Completely remove all finger prints and traces of soil and damage from the surfaces of grid and acoustical materials, using only those cleaning materials recommended for that purpose by the manufacturer of the material being cleaned. B. Replace units which are damaged or improperly installed. END OF SECTION PAGE 5
