Good Site Practice<br />
• Suspended heavy loads, air ducting,<br />
lighting units etc directly from structural<br />
soffit to avoid loading of the suspension<br />
framing.<br />
Safety<br />
• <strong>The</strong> ceiling system within this literature will<br />
not support foot traffic. It is important that<br />
the recommended loading stated in this<br />
literature is not exceeded; if in doubt<br />
please contact your local Lafarge<br />
representative.<br />
• It is important that the maximum size of<br />
a ceiling without either a supporting<br />
partition, joint or break should be<br />
15m x 15m (225m 2 ).<br />
