ABSTRACT:
A modular ceiling panel unit adapted for use with conventional air distribution mechanisms in suspended ceiling grid systems utilizing inverted-T runners suspended from upper support structures is disclosed. The panel unit has a body portion having a rectangular configuration with opposite parallel panel faces and four edges. At least two of the opposite panel edges have generally H-shaped integral air distribution strips, having an inner, an outer, and cross-web portion therebetween, fixedly engaged thereto for substantially the full length of the edge. The air distribution strips comprise means along the inner leg of the H-shape engaging the panel body portion edge and means at the outer leg of the H-shape supportively associated with an arm of an inverted-T runner. The cross-web of the H-shaped air distribution strip is adapted to supportively associate with a mounting portion of a conventional air distribution mechanism positioned in the plenum between the ceiling grid system and upper support structure.
