THE
CEILING
The
building is in an Industrial area in the Melbourne suburb
of South Oakleigh. Being in an industrial area noise generation
is not a problem but naturally external noise getting in is
a problem. We are building on the second floor which is a
6" concrete slab on a I steel frame. The external walls
are double brick and the ceiling is held up on steel trusses
and is asbestos cement on 5 x 2 purlins.

Facing
South
So
we are now starting with lining the ceiling with 16mm (5/8")
soundcheck plasterboard and 4" rockwool in the cavity.

oops!
your slip is showing!! 

Power
screwdrivers!!
................
Rockwool
in the cavity and the trusses sealed

Finished
at last!!

Next
week we start on the framing.
Cheers
