CE Marking What is it? CE stands for Conformité Européenne, which translated literally, means European Conformity. The CE mark is a products passport for entry into the EEA (European Economic Area) and indicates that the product complies with the requirements of the applicable European Directive. For construction products the European Directive is the Construction Products Directive (89/106/ EEC), however, this is being replaced by the Construction Products Regulations (305/2011/EU) which will come into full force on 1st July 2013. The CPD identifies the essential requirements for products (and total projects) such that they are fit for intended use as: mechanical resistance and stability; safety in case of fire; hygiene, health and environment; safety in use; protection against noise; energy economy and heat retention. For suspended ceilings, the way in which we must test and communicate performance for these essential requirements has been defined in EN 13964 Suspended Ceilings Requirements and Test Methods. What does this mean? This standard identifies how the ceiling components must be tested against the essential requirements to identify a performance classification. It also indicates how the manufacturer must ensure that their products maintain these levels of performance on an ongoing basis. On 1st July 2007, it became mandatory for all suspended ceilings and accompanying suspension systems (in the scope of EN 13964) to carry the CE mark and the accompanying essential requirement test information. Since 1st July 2007, nonce marked materials are no longer saleable into the EEA. BRE BUILDING RESEARCH ESTABLISHMENT At Armstrong, we re proud to be a recognised pioneer in green practices, with successful methods to produce environmentally preferable products, prevent pollution and reduce waste. We re the only UK ceiling manufacturer with a BRE Ecopoint profile an external certification of our compliance with ISO 14041 and ISO 21930 standards. Our Ecopoint score in 2007 was 0.10, a significant improvement on 2004, and we re working on lowering it even further. 3

AR MSTR ONG SYSTEMS PRELUDE UNIVERSAL MAIN RUNNER The Prelude Universal Main Runner supports the installation of either hook/butt cut or stab/override Cross Tees from one simple inventory of Main Runners. The universal system is available in Peakform design in both 24mm and 15mm widths. The Peakform Universal Main Runners feature a firm, quick and easy assembled Main Runner to Main Runner / bulbtobulb connection. Metric sized Main Runners are slotted at 100mm centres for more flexibility. Slots are machined to receive positive and accurate assembly of either Prelude TL and TLX (hook installation) or Prelude XL 2 (stab installation) Cross Tees. The stakedon Superlock clip allows for Main Runners to be disconnected and reconnected laterally in lowclearance areas or in the middle of a room. TL TLX PRELUDE XL 2 W HER E INNOVATION MEETS P ER F OR MANCE SEISMIC Rx SYSTEM Armstrong Seismic Rx System is a fully and independently tested approach to achieving ceiling installations that can withstand the forces associated with significant seismic activity or other severe events. In addition to earthquakes, there are several other industries with associated risks (e.g. Blast protection) where the use of Seismic Rx System will provide additional protection for the ceiling e.g. Nuclear installations Defence establishments Chemical installations Transport installations (with intermittent vibrations) The Seismic Rx system provides the additional security required for seismic resistance using specifically designed elements for minimised installation complexity with maximum performance. 8 www.armstrong.eu

PRELUDE XL 2 CLICK INSTALLATION Prelude XL2 Cross Tees in both 24mm and 15mm widths feature an advanced stab system that locates with an audible click, ensuring a solid installation at all times. The stab end is precision stamped from a separate piece of high grade steel permitting an increased accuracy and economy of production over the more conventional integral forming of the Cross Tee ends. A selected range of standard Prelude 15/24 XL2 Cross Tees feature the new Peakform design. The Cross Tees are inserted to the right of each other through the Main Runner slots and easily pushed home. PRELUDE TLX TLX is a new highly engineered stakedon hook system, with a patented clip. Its unique steelbased composite material and shape provide a stronger and level connection, an improved fire performance and an increased overall stability.tlx Cross Tees are quicker and easier to cut due to the Peakform section. When the TLX Cross Tees are inserted to the right of each other through the Main Runner slots, the TLX clip provides a more secure installation. PRELUDE TL HOOK INSTALLATION Prelude TL Cross Tees in 15mm width feature an integrally formed hook nose. This popular installation system has been a feature of Armstrong suspension systems for over 20 years and its proven ease of assembly and precise butt cut joint has been a favourite of installers. Cross Tee alignment is ensured by locating the tees to the right hand side of the adjoining section. 9

HEALTH AND CLEANLINESS Did You Know...? It s all about Air Quality control: The air penetrating the Clean Room can be filtered depending on the size of the undesired elements. Air can be recycled up to 60 times per hour for the total volume of the space. New air is also introduced to avoid a build up in the concentration of CO 2 and maintain enough oxygen for the people working there. Operators in a clean room have to wear equipment such as a clean room suit, hair cover, gloves, shoeprotection, or mask. There are 2 types of rooms: rooms with overpressure, to avoid pollutants from entering (dust, bacteria, ) rooms with negative pressure, to avoid various contaminants from escaping to the outside (viruses, bacteria, spores, ). Building materials used in such spaces shall not have a negative impact on the pursuance of cleanliness and should preferably contribute actively to a better CLEAN ROOM A Clean Room is a space or a series of spaces where the concentration of particles is controlled in order to minimise the introduction, generation, retention of particles inside, generally for a specific industrial or research objective, as well as in healthcare environments. Parameters such as temperature, humidity and relative pressure are also maintained at a precise level, as defined in ISO 146441. Clean rooms are classified ISO 1 (cleanest) to ISO 9 depending on the number of particles measured. The performance is tested to ISO 146441 which determines the particle cleanliness class. Although US Federal Standard 209E has been officially withdrawn, it is continuously used as a reference. The following table shows the equivalence between the 2 standards. ISO Class Maximum Number of Particles in Air (particles in each cubic metre equal to or greater than the specified size) Particle size > 0.1µm > 0.2 µm > 0.3 µm > 0.5 µm > 1 µm > 5 µm ISO Class 1 10 2 ISO Class 2 100 24 10 4 ISO Class 3 1 000 237 102 35 8 Class 1 ISO Class 4 10 000 2 370 1 020 352 83 Class 10 ISO Class 5 100 000 23 700 10 200 3 520 832 29 Class 100 ISO Class 6 1 000 000 237 000 102 000 35 200 8 320 293 Class 1 000 ISO Class 7 352 000 83 200 2 930 Class 10 000 ISO Class 8 3 520 000 832 000 29 300 Class 100 000 ISO Class 9 35 200 000 8 320 000 293 000 Class 1 000 000 HEALTHCARE PREMISE In healthcare premises, it is of critical importance to avoid hospital acquired infections.

FIRE PERFORMANCES REACTION TO FIRE The harmonisation of technical standards within Europe, and the integration of EN13964 (Suspended ceilings requirements and test methods) into national legislation, means that there is now one series of harmonised European test methods and classifications for the reaction to fire of suspended ceilings. These new reaction to fire classifications, or Euroclasses, are defined in EN135011:2007. The Euroclasses have replaced the old national fire reaction ratings for showing the performance of ceilings in order to meet the Construction Products Directive and national building regulation requirements for internal linings. As reaction to fire is one of the essential safety requirements identified for suspended ceilings, the Euroclass classification is one of the mandatory elements on the CE mark for suspended ceiling tiles and grids. The Euroclasses rate from A1 through to F, with A1 being the best reaction to fire performance and F the worst. Each member state then sets the performance level required for different areas and building types within their own building regulations. Depending upon the reaction to fire test(s) conducted, the rating may include an additional classifications for smoke production and flaming droplets. Smoke and flaming droplets are regulated in some European countries. Smoke production is rated from s1 (the least smoke produced) to s3 (no limit to amount of smoke produced). Flaming droplets is rated from d0 (no flaming droplets) to d2 (no limit to flaming droplets). STRUCTURAL FIRE PROTECTION Throughout Europe, there is a requirement for a building s structure to be protected from fire. This is primarily for the structure to remain stable during a fire to allow the occupants to escape and also to enable fire fighters to work without threat of the building s collapse. The duration of the required protection will usually depend upon the height of, and location within, the building (i.e. typical floor, basement, roof construction etc), whether there is any active methods of fire protection (sprinklers etc) and the type of construction to be protected (steel beams, timber or mezzanine floors etc). A fire protecting suspended ceiling system is one of several important methods of providing the fire protection which fire degradable elements of the structure require. Ceilings can be used to enable a floor construction to meet the duration of protection required by the building regulations that it could not necessarily provide on its own. There are many national test methods for establishing the structural fire protection performance of a suspended ceiling system, as well as several European norms which are acceptable in most European countries. The performance achieved during testing will be classified in terms of the duration of protection given, typically this in accordance with EN135012:2007 for European tests. However, there is not yet one single European test method which is acceptable to all member states. Untested products may be assessed by reference to the product attributes and comparison to similar tested products, provided this is supported by an assessment report from a recognised fire expert and should be provided with the base test report that details how the product should be installed to achieve the assessed performance. The location and type of various service elements such as lighting fittings, smoke detectors etc, are infinite and the designer and installer must satisfy themselves that they can be integrated without reducing the tested performance of the ceiling system. This will usually require a test report from the fitting manufacturer or an assessment issued by the fire authorities. Without these documents the designer or installer may assume an everlasting responsibility for the fire safety of the building and occupants. The complete construction and assembly of the test installation is important to the success of the test, and Armstrong test many ceiling tiles for their structural fire performance, but always on Armstrong grid. There are many other details of the test construction that must be understood and adhered to. These include: main runner and hanger centres the type of top fixings and how the hangers are attached to them the minimum depth of the ceiling void what % of the floor design load is tested whether ceiling tile holddown clips were used. These details must be included in the installation if the tested performance is to be realised and they should be taken into account when writing specifications for ceilings intended to provide structural fire protection. In the UK the fire performance of floor structures protected by Armstrong ceiling tile and grid systems is given in the fire assessment document 173816. This document is based on a large number of fire tests conducted on various Armstrong ceiling tile and grid types. It provides an assessment of the performances attainable when various Armstrong tile and grid systems are installed in accordance with the appropriate base fire test and the permitted installation variations from that base test. The tables opposite give a summary of the performances achievable as stated in the assessment document and are correct at the time of going to print. As products may be modified or retested it is essential that their validity is always checked prior to installation. Therefore, the current version of the assessment document 173816 and the relevant base test report should always be consulted prior to the installation of a floor construction to be protected by an Armstrong ceiling system.

INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE SAFETY Armstrong s commitment on safety concerns each and every step of our business: in our plants & offices, we have implemented rigorous safety policies and procedures to help minimise risk for our products, for which we ensure compliance with appropriate European and local safety regulations. on the jobsite, safety is crucial for our partners: Armstrong therefore recommends the handling, installation & maintenance of our solutions in accordance with the Standards and / or regulations, for the safety of the installers & of the end users. GENERAL ADVICE Installation of suspended ceiling systems should be carried out in accordance with Armstrong's current manufacturer's recommendations. For grid systems there are some specific points that should be considered: The appropriate type of Cross Tee for the ceiling tile edge detail must be considered. The grid systems should be installed in such a way that the loadbearing performance of the grid is not exceeded. 'Dynamic' service fittings should be independently supported so not to transfer vibration into the suspension system. Armstrong recommend the use of the 'ladder formation' and all our loading data is based on the 'ladder formation'. Using the 'Hformation' will give greater deflection for a given load.

Retegulating Tegular or MicroLook tiles POST INSTALLATION After the installation of a suspended ceiling system it is important to ensure that it is properly maintained and that any additional works are not detrimental to the performance of the ceiling installation. Maintenance operations must only be undertaken after the technical impact on the ceiling system has been completely evaluated. For example, hangers should not be removed, adapted or bent without fully understanding the consequences and taking any appropriate mitigating actions. Armstrong suspension systems do not need any more maintenance than normal painted metal surfaces. However, if cleaning is required dust and superficial dirt can easily be removed with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment. For more stubborn marks a lightly dampened cloth or sponge can be used, although never use abrasive products. Some companies specialise in chemical cleaning solutions. These should only be undertaken after a test on a small hidden area of grid proves acceptable. Most Armstrong suspension systems can be redecorated, however, consideration should be given to the effect on the fire reaction performance of the grid. Ceiling tiles should be removed, however, the grid can usually be painted in situ. If a firm of professional decorators is used, assurances should be sought that the necessary performances will be maintained. It should be noted that any repainting would invalidate Armstrong's warranty for the product. 19

LOAD CAPACITY MATRIX Loading is an important property of suspended ceiling grid systems both for the mechanical safety of the suspended ceiling and its visual appearance. In the EEA, table 6 of the suspended ceiling product standard, EN 13964:2004+A1:2006, defines 3 classes of deflection, the best being Class 1 which is L/500 (but no greater than 4mm). Class Maximun deflection in mm A 1 L B / 500 and not greater than 4,0 2 L B / 300 3 No limit A The maximun deflection is the accumulative value of the deflection of the substructure component and the deflection of the membrane component. B L is the span in mm between the suspension components or the suspension points. The test method on which the European calculations of loadbearing capacity are based upon is also defined in EN 13964, and considers the influence of both deflection and bending moment. The individual product pages in the second half of this brochure include a table giving the maximum uniform distributed load, based on different hanger centres, in accordance with Class 1 deflection, as defined in EN 13964:2004+A1:2006. For markets outside of the EEA different deflection limits are sometimes required. The tables on this page show the maximum uniform distributed load for the deflection limits shown, but taking into account deflection only. These values are calculated based upon load values determined from laboratory tests in accordance with the EN 13964 test method. For longer spans, some of the criteria shown on this page may give quite large deflection values. Armstrong recommends a maximum of 4mm deflection between points of suspension for all grid components, irrespective of span, for aesthetic reasons. Therefore the numbers in the tables on this page are the maximum loads permitted to meet the give a deflection criteria (such as L/400) but up to a maximum value of 4mm.
