After concluding the structural stability of the ceiling structure it will be necessary
to assess the construct and decide on the best course of action for installing the
ceiling plate. There are various different methods for loading the plate onto the
ceiling, below are various example methods that can be used.
4.6.2 Attachment methods and void suspension
Please note, the minimum room height allowed for fixing requires the bottom of the
ceiling plate to be no lower than 2.4m.

Bolted Directly into the structure and secured with chemical bonding
The is our primary choice for mounting our lights to the ceiling structure,
appropriate rawl bolts and chemical bonding should be used to secure the fitting.

Bolted to a Uni-strut Construct
When using a uni-strut construct for mounting the ceiling plate, you should ensure
that the uni-strut is cross braced to ensure it is secure and does not move.

Weight dispersed over several timber frames
This can be used when fixing the light to a timber frame structure in a room with a
suspended ceiling. We recommend sandwiching or affixing uni-strut to the timber
with a span of at least 4 rafters / joists with the uni-strut and then fixing the ceiling
plate to the strutting to disperse the weight.
