This Standard sets out the minimum requirements for the design, construction, installation, maintenance and testing of internal and external non-trafficable suspended ceiling systems of dry construction with suspension systems attached to a supporting structure. It is intended for use in commercial, industrial and residential applications. NOTE: Alternative methods for demonstrating compliance with this Standard, such as installation of external ceilings, are described in Appendix A.
