  • Patent number: 10612236
    Abstract: A ceiling system for a clean room, a clean room ceiling and a method for constructing a ceiling for a clean room are provided. Inverted T-shaped beams support the ceiling from a building structure. A bracket attaches to a composite ceiling panel and engages a beam joint portion that extends in an upward direction from a beam leg. The beam joint portion and the composite periphery of the composite ceiling panel define a relief for solvent welding of a panel joint lower end of a composite ceiling panel to a beam joint lower end. A spring clip may resist vertical movement of the bracket with respect to the inverted T-shaped beam.

  • Patent number: 10151462
    Abstract: A structural beam and light fixture for a walkable ceiling of a clean room is composed of an elongated channel and a lamp disposed in the elongated channel. The lamp is configured to direct light through the bottom side of the elongated channel. The structural beam and light fixture is attached to adjoining ceiling components and is configured to support a load applied to the adjoining ceiling components. The structural beam and light fixture, combined with other walkable ceiling components, define ceiling top and bottom sides that are flush.
