Remember…
Feed hanger wires into the same hanger
holes as were used in the previous main
tee. This will prevent interference with the
stabilizer bars later during the installation.
Using the first row of hanger wires as
a template, install additional rows of
hanger wires as needed, two-feet apart. Using the first row of main tees as
a template, use string lines or a laser
to hang all the flush-cut main tees
at one end.
As each flush-cut main tee is hung,
connect it to the previous row using
a termination cross tee. Next, install the stabilizer bars. For a single ribbon installation, stabilizer
bars should be installed 2 feet on center
using all available cross tee holes.
For a multi-ribbon installation, stabilizer bars
should be installed 2 feet on center along
the perimeter modules and staggered on
the inside rows. In a dual-ribbon installation, stabilizer bars
are installed in the cross tee slots on one
row and offset two feet on center on the
other row.
To install each stabilizer bar, bend the
stabilizer tabs in the same direction as
the offset…
…and insert the tab through the cross
