Suspension4.3 Mechanical resistance and stability of load bearing components4.3.1 GeneralThis clause of the standard covers only the load bearing components of the suspended ceiling and ceiling lining. Itdoes not cover the mechanical characteristics of membrane components, for which see 4.6.2.The design of the suspended ceiling shall be made so that the admissible building tolerances (limits of buildingtolerances) and the movement and deflection of the adjoining building assemblies (elements) are considered.The stability of the suspended ceiling and / or the ceiling lining respectively shall not be reduced (disturbed) as aresult of the movement of adjoining building elements.In the case of partitions fixed to the suspended ceiling, the forces imposed by the partition shall be carried either bysuitable structural measures or transmitted by the suspended ceiling to the building structure.NOTEMost suspended ceilings are not designed to support the additional load imposed by a partition. In case partitionsare fixed to the suspended ceilings, only ceilings specifically designed for this purpose should be used.

1LB / 500 and not greater than 4,02LB / 3003No limitAThe maximum deflection is the accumulative value of the deflection of the substructure component and the deflection of themembrane componentBL is the span in mm between the suspension components or the suspension points4.3.2.2 Substructure materials4.3.2.2.1 Steel substructureWhere the substructure is formed in hot-galvanised strip or sheet of unalloyed steel, the minimum steel grade usedshall be DX 51D + Z according to EN 10142.If other steel types are used, they shall conform to either EN 10152 (ZE), EN 10169-1, EN 10214 (ZA) or EN 10215(AZ), as appropriate.The thickness tolerance shall be in accordance with EN 10143.For corrosion protection the minimum protection shall be in accordance with Table 8 related to the class ofexposure (see Table 7) to be encountered.4.3.2.2.2 Aluminium substructureWhere substructure members are made of aluminium alloy, the alloy shall be in accordance with EN 573-3 andhave 0,2 % yield strength of at least 160 N/mm2.For corrosion protection, the minimum protection shall be that given in Table 8.
