Design Manual - Steel Stud Drywall Ceiling Systems
Rondo Building Services Pty Ltd
Steel studs may be used as ceiling joints, especially in situations where it is difficult to install a suspended ceiling. Typical applications would be corridors, bathrooms or open roof areas. This design manual includes a table which sets out the maximum spans for Rondo steel studs. They also show the minimum rows of bridging. Bridging in a ceiling serves the same purpose as noggings in a wall. An installation guide is also included which covers the information about mechanical joints, friction joints, bulkheads and span tables.
