About this detail

The suspended ceiling grid consists of main runners and cross runners spaced on a four-foot grid with twelve-gauge vertical hangers at four feet on center each way, secured with a minimum of three tight turns in three inches at both ends. Twelve-gauge bracing wires feature a minimum of four tight turns in one and a half inches at both ends, connected to main runners ninety degrees apart with a total of four at each strut unless noted otherwise. A rigid vertical strut is installed alongside bracing wires maintaining an angle between zero and forty-five degrees. Struts do not replace hanger wires, and the minimum acceptable angle is determined such that the wires do not interfere with runners or light fixtures and remain straight and unobstructed.
