ACOUSTICAL CEILINGS <br />Section 09510 <br />15-1207 <br />foot intervals and locked to main runners in true alignment and to provide a continuous <br />cross tie right angle to main runner. At two adjacent walls main runners and cross tees <br />shall be securely interlocked to wall angles per the drawings. Secure wall moldings to <br />walls as shown.. <br />3. Expansion Joints and Penetrations: <br />a. Expansion joints shall be provided where require by the DSA IR and in <br />accordance with ASTM E 580. <br />b. Sprinkler heads and other similar devices that are not integrally tied to the ceiling <br />system in the lateral direction shall have a 2 inch oversized ring, sleeve or <br />adaptor through the ceiling tile to allow free movement of one inch in all horizontal <br />directions. A flexible sprinkler hose fitting that can accommodate 1 inch of ceiling <br />movement may be provided in lieu of the oversized ring, sleeve or adaptor. <br />4. Hanger wires shall be provided for all main runners and cross runners within 8" of <br />ceiling perimeters or as indicated otherwise in drawings. Install hanger wires as plumb <br />as possible at all locations. Secure to main runners at lower end. Hanger wires to be <br />no more than 1 in 6 out of plumb. Attachment of hanger wires shall be in accordance <br />with ASTM C636, Part 2, and as shown. <br />5. Separate all ceiling hanger and bracing wires at least six inches from all unbraced <br />ducts, pipes, conduits, etc. <br />6. Provide field testing of drilled in concrete anchors or power actuated anchors as shown. <br />power actuated anchors in concrete are not permitted for bracing wires. If any anchor <br />fails, all anchors must be tested at no expense to the Owner. <br />7. Frame around light fixtures, grilles, registers, etc. All light fixtures shall be attached to <br />the ceiling grid to resist a horizontal force equal to the weight of the light fixture. All 4 ft. <br />x 4ft. light fixtures must have #12 gauge slack safety wires at each corner. <br />8. Flush or recessed light fixtures, mechanical terminals, and flexible sprinkler hose <br />fittings, or services weighing less than 56 pounds may be supported on heavy duty grid <br />but must have two #12 gauge slack safety wires from diagonal corners to the structure <br />above. <br />9. All flush or recessed light fixtures and air terminals or services mounted in heavy duty <br />suspension systems and weighing 56 pounds or more shall be independently <br />supported by not less than four taut 12 gauge wires each attached to the fixture and to <br />the structure above. The four taut 12 gauge wires including their attachment to the <br />fixture shall be capable of supporting four (4) times the weight of the item being <br />supported. <br />10. Projection screens suspended from runners shall utilize T -bar support clip, Caddy Clip <br />"IDS" Series clips over grid with additional hanger wire and four splay wires. <br />B. Lateral Bracing: <br />A set of 4 bracing wires, splayed at 45 degrees, shall be provided at 12'-0" o.c. each <br />way. Wires shall be taut without causing ceiling to lift. There shall be a brace assembly <br />a distance of not more than 6'-0" from each surrounding wall, expansion joint and at the <br />edges of any ceiling vertical offsets. A minimum of one set of bracing wires is required <br />between any two adjacent expansion cut-outs on runners being braced. <br />a. Lateral Force Brace Assembly Spacing: When the Design Spectral Acceleration <br />Parameter (SDS) indicated on the structural plans, exceeds 1.15, the spacing for <br />the lateral bracing assembly shall be reduced as follows: <br />M <br />
