The invention relates to a system which is used to provide a planar structure, such as a wall or a ceiling, comprising a profiled frame (1) which is assembled from a plurality of profiled elements (2, 7), and a flexible or rigid, flat planar element (3) extending at least partially over said profiled frame (1). The planar element (3) is detachably connected to a connecting element (4, 8) by means of a form fit and/or a force closure. The connecting element (4, 8) is detachably connected to the profiled frame (1) by means of a form fit and/or a force closure, so that the planar element (3) is indirectly connected to the profiled frame (1) by means of the connecting element (4, 8), and wherein the connecting element (4, 8) is separate from the profiled frame (1) and the planar element (3).

FLOOR-TO-CEILING PARTITION WALL ASSEMBLY

A method of installing a panel member on a frame assembly includes the steps of providing a panel member having inner and outer surfaces and providing one or more positioning assemblies on the inner surface of the panel. The positioning assemblies each having an adjustable positioning member adapted to engage a portion of the frame assembly. The method further includes setting the positioning members to determine a registration point for the panel member along the frame assembly. One or more driving assemblies are then provided on the inner surface of the panel, each having a biasing member adapted to engage a portion of the frame assembly to drive the panel member towards the registration point on the frame assembly.
