Features and advantages.
Engineered 'Kwik' Locking
The engineered locking systems provide positive joining of main Teesand Cross Tees, with installer ease, without the need of any additional operations eg. pop riveting, twisting etc. Fig. 1 resulting in a smoothflat joint and thus eliminating the ghosting effect between the ceilingtile and grid.
Increased Flexibility
The main Tee has been pre-punched at 300mm centres allowing for various ceiling designs, and the 1200mm Cross Tee comes centrepunched (standard) for increased flexibility and efficiency of installation.
Installer Ease and Cost Saving
The bulb at the top of the Tee sections gives the installer flexibility where the suspension clip (CL315) fig. 2 is placed as it clips over the bulb anywhere along the length (1200mm max centres). This enables the installer to keep the suspension rods vertical in every situation. Also with this clip an option of using either 5mm or 2.5mm wire is possible, giving further potential cost savings.
Premium Non-Corrosive Finish
All aluminium sections are powdercoated white on an automatic line resulting in a consistent non-corrosive finish, particularly suited to buildings where quality and longevity is a priority. Other finishes are available with a small surcharge.
Press Stamped Identification
Enables future extensions to projects to proceed in a consistent and ordered manner.
Ease of Handling
Components are professionally packaged for ease of handling and safe-guarding the product from damage both in transport and on site.
Reduced Project Management
Installation time is significantly less than other aluminium systems, due to the snap fit locking system. This allows for condensing of schedules and significantly reducing administration and labour costs.
Versatile Wall Trim
Connection of Tees to Wall Angles is simplified with the unique reversible Wall Angles for either lipped installation where the Tee sections are notched, or alternatively using the KL100 bracket fig.4 which locks into the Wall Angle and is riveted to the Tee section.
Exceeds Standard Requirements
Suspension points exceed the requirements of AS/NZS 2785. Precision manufacturing procedures also maintain uncompromising accuracy to ensure straight grid lines.
Bulkhead Construction Ease
The Kwikloc System incorporates an aluminium Bulkhead section which facilitates the use of the KL100 bracket, thus increasing rigidity and providing ease of installation.
Seismic Requirements
The Kwikloc aluminium ceiling grid systems have the structural capacity to meet the loading requirements of both AS 1170.4 and NZS 4203with respect to the horizontal earthquake forces as required by both Australian & New Zealand standards. Specific design requirement standards for the Kwikloc System are available for the various areasand activity levels throughout Australia and New Zealand.
Architectural Specifications.
Suspended Ceilings
Kwikloc Regal/Premium Systems
General
Provide a Kwikloc aluminium exposed grid system as manufactured by STUDFORM.
Material
The exposed aluminium grid shall be Kwikloc (specify either Premium 15mm, or Regal 24mm) powdercoated (satin white) as manufactured by Studform. The Kwikloc grid shall consist of highgrade aluminium powdercoated (specify satin white or other). All materials shall meet the requirements of AS 2785 - Suspended Ceilings Design and Installation.
Installation
The main tees (KL 3600 or KL3600P) shall be spaced at 600mm or 1200mm centres supported from the structure by either a 2.5mm or a 5mm soft galvanised rod at 1200mm max. centres and no more than 600mm from the perimeter trim and no more than 150mm from any main tee join. The cross tees shall be positively locked together through the main tee slots (at 300mm) to form the required module. All 1200mm cross tees shall be centre punched at 600mm to facilitate light fittings and/or mechanical services and any alterations thereof.
In General : Hangers, main tees and spacer tees shall be spaced so as not to exceed the designed ceiling load or as may otherwise be required to prevent deflection in excess of 1/360 of the span of the maintee or spacer. Extra hangers are to be provided for light fittings,mechanical services etc, that are supported by the grid system. Down bracing shall be incorporated in external installations and areas adjacent to openings prone to uplift caused by external windforces. Hold down clips shall be used in braced areas or as required.
Grid Module
The grid module shall be (600 x 600)(1200 x 600) (1200 x 300) or other...
Perimeter Detail
Perimeter trim shall be Kwikloc(ASL 3600 - Shadowline or AST 3600 - standard) reversible wall angle securely fixed. Main tees and spacers shall be either notched on to the lip of thewall angle, or butted flush against the straight legusing KL 100 Kwikloc wall angle brackets, to ensure the grid and perimeter trim provide a flat even plane for lay in panels.
Bulkhead Detail
Kwikloc Bulkhead section KLBH 4000 to be used in conjunction with KL 100 Kwikloc brackets asrequired for bulkhead junctions to avoid exposed fixings.
Kwikloc Corporate System (refer below)
General
Provide a Kwikloc Corporate Aluminium Mitred TopHat ceiling system incorporating hangers to maintees as outlined in installation specifications. Themodule requirements shall be (specify 1200x1200,1350x1350 or 1500x1500) incorporating associated C&T splines for panel support. Centreflute of Corporate grid to facilitate partition fixing to ceiling without damage to system.
