TRANSLUCENT CEILING OR WALL PANEL
A ceiling panel according to the present invention has opposed translucent membranes secured in a tensioned state across a perimeter frame. The frame includes frame members that are designed to oppose inward bowing of the perimeter frame caused by the tensioned membranes. The frame members have a side profile shaped to conceal a grid support network with the lower translucent member extending across and about a lower edge of the perimeter frame. The invention also includes a modified structure for supporting of translucent panels below a grid network.
Drywall sheet end joint
A suspended ceiling comprising SUSPENDED metal runners in a horizontal plane, the runners each having a horizontal flange having an effective vertical thickness, a plurality of rectangular drywall sheets aligned crosswise to the runners and screwed to the flanges with ends of the drywall sheets forming butt joints midway between adjacent runners, boards overlying butt joints and adjacent flanges, the boards being substantially stiffer than the drywall sheets, whereby the drywall sheet ends are drawn up towards an upper level of the flanges when screwed against the overlying board so that a pseudo taper is formed on the drywall sheet ends.

Ceiling system
A ceiling system in one embodiment includes a support grid including intersecting grid support members and grid openings formed between the grid support members. A vertical baffle is positioned in a grid opening and is attached to the support grid. The baffle includes opposing front and rear faces extending between opposing lateral sides of the baffle. First and second mounting grooves formed in the baffle engage and support the baffle from the grid. In one embodiment, one of the mounting grooves is disposed in each lateral side to support the baffle from opposite sides. The baffle may further include a third mounting groove formed in the rear face which engages the support grid to help align and squarely register the baffle with respect to the grid for clean linear visuals. In one embodiment, the grid support members may have a standard T-shaped cross section.

ACOUSTIC PANELS AND RELATED METHODS
Acoustic panels are disclosed herein. The acoustic panels can include a base, a plurality of sidewalls, a plurality of hinges, and a plurality of connection interfaces. The acoustic panels can include an unassembled configuration in which the acoustic panels are substantially planar or flat. Prior to installation, the acoustic panels can be transitioned to an assembled configuration by folding the sidewalls. The acoustic panels can be coupled to a building structure, such as a ceiling, wall, or suspension system.
A PLANAR SUSPENDED CEILING SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR INSTALLING THE CEILING SYSTEM
The inventive concept relates to a planar suspended ceiling system comprising: a ceiling tile (10) having a front side (1), a rear side (2) and at least one side edge extending between the front side (1) and the rear side (2), the ceiling tile (10) comprising an acoustical absorbing body (4), and a front cover (3) arranged at the front side (1) of the ceiling tile (10); wherein a slit (5) is provided extending across the entire rear side (2) of the acoustical absorbing body (4) thereby dividing said acoustical absorbing body (4) into a first and a second body section (4a, 4b), and having a depth such that the ceiling tile (10) is foldable along the slit (5) with the front cover (3) acting as a joint; wherein opposing portions of the at least one side edge are provided with each a groove (6) and; a grid of profiles (11) for supporting said ceiling tile (10) in a planar, non-folded state in which flanges (7) of the grid of profiles (11) extend into the grooves (6) thereby supporting the ceiling tile (10).
