ABSTRACT:
An improved ceiling panel for use in concealed suspension is disclosed which includes framing a panel body member on the sides and rear face thereof in a manner that the lower surface of the panel is determined by the metal framing members. These members are preferrably extruded aluminum and hence the accuracy thereof and hence the accuracy of the lower surface of the panel can be maintained in a closer tolerance range. In addition the framing members include an inwardly directed flange which preferrably is held by an adhesive within an appropriately located kerfed recess in the edge of the body member. This structure serves to stiffen the panel and reduce deflection thereby providing a ceiling system of substantially improved quality. Height variations in ceiling systems are easily recognized and the present disclosure teaches a system of high quality while providing a system which is easy to install and has the advantages of ready access to the area above the ceiling.
