Abstract: A clip for a suspended ceiling being suspended from an overhead structure has at least first and second adjoined ceiling members defining a top surface interfacing with the overhead structure and an opposite undersurface. The top surface of each of the first and second adjoined ceiling members defines at least one slot. The clip comprises a main longitudinal body and a pair of inserts. The main longitudinal body defines opposite ends. Each of the inserts downwardly extend from respective one of the ends of the longitudinal body. Each of the inserts configured to be inserted into a respective one of the slots. The clip is mountable to the first and second adjoined ceiling members with one insert being inserted in the slot of the first ceiling member and the other insert being inserted in the slot of the second ceiling member thereby maintaining the first and second ceiling members in the adjoined position against separation.
Abstract: A modular ceiling comprising first and second main runners defining an upper surface and a lower surface, the upper surface defining a longitudinal retaining cavity along the first main runner and two grooves disposed parallel to and, respectively, on each side from the longitudinal retaining cavity; a cross member installable at an angle from the main runners and adapted to connect the first main runner with the second main runner, the cross member being secured to the main runners by a cross member fastener having a cross runner anchor adapted to engage the groove defined in main runners; and a panel adapted to be disposed between main runners and being supported, at least in part, by main runners.
