ABSTRACT:
For use in a suspended ceiling of the well known type utilizing inverted T-bar support framework, novel panels of this invention provide a pattern of parallel flutes extending the full length of the panel. Panels fit between adjacent cross runners of a T-bar type suspension system, supported removably along two opposite sides in a manner which integrates the fluted panels and the downwardly exposed T-bar flanges into a uniform pattern substantially disguising the presence of the T-bars. Associated trim members of a miniature beam style may be attached to T-bar main runners as a finish accent between ends of end-adjacent panels and, if desired, around the perimeter of the subceiling where they serve to conceal wall angles which provide support to panels at the perimeter. Panels may be readily produced from flat sheet metal stock in a forming process and are easily installable and removable in the suspended subceiling framework.
