LINEAR AND ACOUSTIC WALLS AND CEILINGS
LSA PROJECTS OFFER AN EXTENSIVE RANGE OF ACOUSTIC AND FIRE-RATED LINEAR AND FLAT PANEL SYSTEMS FOR WALLS AND CEILINGS…
I nterior specialists LSA Projects supplied over 2,000m 2 of linear and acoustic wall and ceiling systems from their core product ranges to the QUB SU Student Centre project. Oranit ceiling panels were used throughout the building in lobbies and common areas while Gustafs ribs were used throughout the main entrance atrium, cladding the face of the mezzanine levels as well as interior stair cores. Gustafs acoustic panel system was installed to the walls and ceiling of the Mandela Hall multi-use theatre space. More than 2,000 Oranit ceiling panels in the new 8-080 format were chosen for this project. Panels were made from
natural yellow pine timber – which comes with PEFC certification as standard – and finished in a custom stain to match the appearance of walnut timber. 8-080 panels deep blades at wider centres than the 7-series styles allow for more flexibility for services installation including lights and ventilation. Gustafs Linear Ribs in different widths were used in the main atrium and stair cores of the SU facility. Using a mixture of 38mm and 88mm rib widths added texture to the installation and allows for wider gaps (and better acoustic performance) without a sparce appearance. Ribs for this project were finished in natural walnut veneer.
Gustafs Panel System in natural walnut veneer was used in the Mandela Performance Hall. The ceiling panels were installed to the perimeter to the space to give acoustic performance without affecting the ceiling rigs for lighting, ventilation and decorative suspensions. This ceiling section was installed with a fixed “L” shaped upstand detail made up of narrow lengths of panel fitted together at a right angle. The detail was designed by the architects and LSA and uses standard capax corner and edge profile pieces for perfect positioning as well as lacquered panel edges for the neat exterior alignment.
