ABSTRACT:
A suspended ceiling system having tiles and fixtures with interspersed hooks resting on runners. The hooks from adjacent ceiling components rest on the top of the same runners, but not upon each other. Each tile, consequently, may undergo removal without interfering or disturbing any of its neighbors. The tiles may have kerfing and backcutting with a metal bracket, or spline, inserted in the kerfing. The hooks extend from the metal bracket upwards and over the top of the suspended runners. Generally, the location of the hooks and spaces form mirror images of each other through a plane passing through the middle of the tile. When used on the opposite side for a neighboring tile, the hooks from either tile land in the space between the hooks on the other tile. Although resting on top of the same runner, they do not lie on top of each other, permitting the removal of one tile without disturbing any others. The same arrangement of hooks and spaces may form part of other ceiling fixtures such as lights, vents, or speakers. These fixtures too may consequently rest on the same runners and undergo removal without disturbing neighboring tiles or fixtures.
