Hi,

I have a question about hanging to trapezoid sheet. We will do a sprinkler installation in Poland according NFPA. Can we hang sprinkler pipe DN65 to trapeze sheet? I will use trapeze ceiling fixing. Could you show me any record in NFPA13 which say about hanging to trapeze sheet/ceiling?


Thanks a lot
 
Are you talking about a suspended ceiling supported by lightweight metal with dimensional lay-in panels?
 
1. substantially supported from the building structre

2. must support water filled pipe plus minimum 250 pounds

3. metal deck can support 1 inch or less
 
And this is construction steel sheet like this:
