About this detail

A wall angle is fastened to the perimeter wall to support the acoustical ceiling assembly. A vertical hanger wire is tied to the T-bar grid with an 8-inch maximum spacing from the wall. The T-bar rests on a 7/8-inch perimeter clip and remains unattached to the wall angle on one side to provide a 1/2-inch clearance gap, while the opposite wall condition is rigidly attached. Cut edges of ceiling tiles are routed to match recessed joints elsewhere. This specific floating perimeter detail is required for ceilings in International Building Code seismic categories D, E, and F.
