A novel design of rails for a suspended ceiling, the rails including expansion absorbers. The absorbers are produced so that the rails can absorb an expansion while maintaining the integrity of the ceiling, so that the ceiling panels do not fall in the event of a fire. The rails maintain a significant load-bearing capacity despite the presence of one or more expansion absorbers over the length thereof.

A ceiling grid system as part of a suspended ceiling having a plurality of ceiling panels includes main runners and cross-runners oriented transverse to each other and forming a two-dimensional array having openings, each opening defining a position within the suspended ceiling in which a ceiling panel is disposed, the main runners and the cross-runners being configured to attach to each other and to be fixed in the horizontal plane in the physical space, each one of a plurality of panel support members is connected with a main runner or a cross-runner and is configured to support one of the ceiling panels, each panel support member is movable in a rotatable or linear manner with respect to the main runner or the cross-runner to facilitate the installation or removal of one of the ceiling panel with respect to its predetermined position within the suspended ceiling.

A ceiling framework includes main beams and cross beams, which are connected to one another and transversally to one another by connectors borne by one type of beams among the main beams and the cross beams, and engaged in apertures made in the other type of beams among the main beams and the cross beams, so as to receive tiles. For each beam having the apertures, the apertures are marked with symbols on each face of the beam, the symbols marked on each face being repeated sequentially over the length of the beam, the period of the sequences of symbols on each face being equal to a given tile size. The marking is the same on either face of the beam, starting with the same symbol on each left-hand or right-hand end for each observed face.

Described is an approved dynamic construction for effectively thermally insulating and sealing of a safing slot between a floor of a building and an exterior wall construction wherein the exterior wall construction comprises a curtain wall configuration defined by an interior wall surface. The dynamic, thermally insulating and sealing system comprises a tubular sealing element having wing-like connection areas for attaching the tubular sealing element to the curtain wall construction and the floor of a building, to maintain thermally insulating and sealing of the safing slot during exposure to fire and heat as well as movement in order to maintain a complete seal extending across the safing slot and to enhance the water-stopping properties of the insulation and seal within the safing slot.
