The Special Suspended Ceiling is composed of UHPC, and includes an intricate, multi-faceted decorative design that took several months to create. The project required a large amount of work in the form of mold-making.

 

This decorative composite ceiling covers an area of c.192,000 square meters. The use of Trend agglomerate and the highly flexural UHPC material, has helped create the intricate, multi-faceted decorative designs on each of the panels.

 

The project specification also details very specific requirements for acoustics and the expected minimum average NRC rating has been set at 0.4.

 

This has been achieved by using a recessed detail in the decorative detail incorporating extended, glass, sound-absorbing board behind the ceiling panel itself. Special care is also taken to ensure that the fixing and adhesives used are of a category that minimize the risk of parts falling from the ceiling.

 

The production are interlinked with openings to allow materials and parts to pass through the different processes without being moved outside. Production is set up in such way that all individual parts and components are fabricated and finished to the correct size and geometry to minimize final assembly times. Each panel is supplied with a kit of pre-prepared parts for assembly.
