Suspended ceiling work - Coordination on the installation process









1. The suspended ceiling work at Port Klang, Selangor for an engineering company incurred us extra cost in materials and labour / man-hours due to oversight on the coordination of the whole suspended ceiling construction process. Hence, this posting as reminder for future suspended ceiling work with the same conditions.

2. Sprinkle system alteration work, if there is any, is to go first before constructing the framework suspension system. Water that sprinkle out during the alteration work will spread to the suspension framework and cause it to rust. If there is already gypsum board partition wall being constructed, damage to the wall may happen if the board is not of water resistant type. 

3. Wiring and ducting work are to go first or before gypsum ceiling board is put up. The wiring work will be very much slowed down if it is done after the ceiling board is put up. That is apart form the high possibility if dirtying the ceiling board.

4. Hanger wire for light box cannot be drawn from the wire meant to hang the suspension system and ceiling board. The strength of the wire hanger suspension will be compromised if this is done, resulting in dropping or sagging ceiling in the future.

1. Common problem faced by factories with gypsum board partition offices and rooms in their production or assembly areas is dented or broken wall caused by the the pallet trolley and hand pallet truck.

2. Gypsum board partition wall can be easily dented when knocked by the moving trolley inside the factory. Even bricks wall is not spared. When trolley and hand truck is always used, the maintenance cost on the partition wall can be very high due the the high tendency of the knocking.

3. Some factories have the bottom of the partition wall installed with high aluminium strip skirting as shown in photo 4. But that will not help much as the aluminium strip is not thick enough to take the impact of the knock.

4. Safety guider can be considered to reduce the rate of partition wall being dented by knocking caused by the moving trolley and hand truck. Photos 5 and 6 show the safety guider being installed for such purpose.

5.Safety guider can be custom made in length and height to suit the requirement of specific factory environment as shown in photo 7.
