A clip that fixes a ceiling joist intersecting a ceiling joist receiver to the ceiling joist receiver, includes: a top portion having a width of the ceiling joist receiver; a first hanging portion hanging down from one end of the top portion, and provided with, at a lower portion, first engaging projections extending left and right to engage the ceiling joist; and a second hanging portion hanging down from another end of the top portion, and provided with, at a lower portion, second engaging projections extending left and right to lock the ceiling joist. The first hanging portion has a length longer than that of the second hanging portion, and a recess extending in a direction toward the second hanging portion is provided at an intermediate position of the first hanging portion.

The track is elongate such that it extends along a longitudinal axis. The track comprises an alignment feature located at a predetermined alignment position along the longitudinal axis of the track. The alignment feature is configured to secure a partition support member at the alignment position when the partition support member is received by the track. The alignment feature comprises one of a projection or recess configured to engage with the other of a projection or recess of the partition support member.

A high-strength grid member is provided that comprises two standard Tee-shaped grid members that are vertically aligned to form an I-beam configuration with the strengthening bulbs of each being spaced apart. A plurality of clips is secured to the spaced-apart bulbs by means of fasteners to secure the two grid members together.

Disclosed is a precursor for a clip and a clip formed by the precursor. The clip is configured for mounting a furring channel to a load-bearing member and is a generally U-shaped member having a pair of sidewalls, each of which includes a pair of tabs projecting therefrom. The clip is arranged to receive the load-bearing member between its sidewalls, such that the tabs can be snap-fit under inwardly directed flanges of the furring channel. Also disclosed is a method of forming the clip from the precursor, by bending portions of the precursor to form the sidewalls of the clip, and a method for mounting a furring channel onto a load-bearing member using the clip.

The present invention relates in general to a suspended ceiling clip and method of using the clip to support a grid-work of channels in a key lock concealed grid suspended ceiling system. The suspended ceiling clip is used for mounting a furring channel to a top cross rail. The clip comprising a longitudinally extending base; a pair of flanges extending downwardly from the base and between which the base is located; a pair of hooks on each flange, each pair of hooks adapted to releasably connect to the furring channel; at least one projection in each flange, each projection engaging with a surface on the top cross rail to secure the clip within a longitudinal slot of the top cross rail; and wherein the air of flanges extend a predetermined distance from the base so as to space apart the top cross rail and the furring channel to provide a void therebetween.

A bracket for mounting panels to a carrier, the bracket comprising a base and two flanges extending away from the base, the base being located between the two flanges, each flange having an inwardly-facing surface and an outwardly-facing surface bounded by two side edges and a distal end, and wherein each flange comprises at least one outwardly protruding tab for engaging the carrier and thereby securing the bracket to the carrier, and wherein each flange further comprises a pair of slots for receiving a panel, each slot of said pair of slots extending from a different side edge of the flange at a location further away from the base than the outwardly protruding tab. A carrier and bracket assembly and a carrier, bracket and panel assembly are also provided.

Components for constructing a ceiling grid across a span free of or with a limited number of suspension wires including main runners with a relatively high moment of inertia secured at their ends with brackets to wall moldings on opposing walls.
