Installation

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

Install control joints in plasterboard ceilings at:
• 12m maximum intervals
• All control joints in the structure
• Any change in the substrate material
• At the junction of a large room and passageway

Separate plasterboard from building elements made with other materials, such as columns by creating control joints that allow for movement, e.g. utilizing a shadow line profile.

All ceilings in this section are non-trafficable. Do not walk on plasterboard ceilings!

Attach ceiling fixtures to framing members only. Ensure the framing is designed to carry any additional load.

Do not rigidly affix Strato panel to the perimeter.

FRAMING

• Cut Top Cross Rail (TCR) and furring channel to leave 20mm expansion gaps at each wall.
• Stagger joints in TCR and furring channel by 1200mm
• Install additional framing members around openings
• Fix short edges of Strato panel boards to wide furring  channel.

Do not affix Strato panel directly to timber joists.
