Ceilings & Partitions
Back
Ceilings and partitions pose a risk to building occupants if not properly designed by a structural engineer, as they are susceptible to collapse under rare earthquake or wind events
- AS2785 contains the design requirements for suspended ceilings in Australia, and the loading scenarios the ceilings must be able to accommodate
- KUSCH works alongside designers to ensure that these architectural elements can accommodate the required forces, whilst still achieving the designer’s vision
KUSCH’s ceiling and partition design services include the following:
- Design of ceiling and wall framing
- Design of ceiling hangers and concrete anchors
- Design of load bearing and non-load bearing partition walls
- Seismic design of walls and partitions
- Structural assessment of existing walls and partitions
