Ceiling Sheet Application or Interior Ceilings

BGC Stud Adhesive, 25mm dia. x 15mm high, are positioned in the pattern as shown in Table 4, spaced at maximum of 250mm and minimum of 200mm centres.

BGC Stud Adhesive must not be used at wall-to-wall and wall-to-ceiling junctions, around openings, butt joints or fastener points.

BGC Ceilingboards are placed at right angles to the ceiling joists, battens or furring channels, and fastened along one recessed edge at each joist, batten or furring channel.

Next, press the sheets firmly against the framing, and fix two nails (for timber framing) or one screw (for CFS steel framing), along the centre of the sheet at each framing member.

Then, fasten off the sheets along the other recessed edge, at each framing member. Fasteners must not coincide with BGC Stud Adhesive daubs, and fasteners should be kept to a minimum distance of 200mm from BGC Stud Adhesive daubs.

Where allowed, fasteners at butt joints and around openings should be placed at a maximum spacing of 150mm for nails and 200mm for screws.

Allow at least 24 hours or 48 hours in slow drying weather, for the BGC Stud Adhesive to cure.
