System Description
SAS System 130 is a range of lay-in tiles supported
from SAS Alugrid or SAS Tee Grid. Alugrid-Q features a
continuous linear recess with an M6 thread and negative
quirk relief detail abutting the ceiling tiles, giving a
completely flush ceiling. Alugrid-P is a plain version
without the threaded recess and gives a completely
flush ceiling. Tee Grid is a butt cut exposed grid that
provides a tegular effect.

Alugrid-Q Composition and Integration
The Alugrid-Q cross tee comprises of a steel carrier for
retention of structural integrity in fire conditions.
The aluminium thread form profile features a continuous
lineal recess with an M6 thread form and a negative
quirk rebate. This facilitates the hanging of signs and
other lightweight fixtures by means of an M6 bolt.
Alugrid-Q Junction Detail
The aluminium cross tee extrusions are machined to
create precise mitred “bird’s mouth” intersections on
the grid face.
Alugrid-Q sections can be supplied with “bird’s mouth”
mitres on one side only to fit a flush abutment to
luminaires, air grilles and other services which rest
directly on the grid but are of a larger modular size than
the ceiling tiles.
The continuous linear thread form allows the easy
location and relocation of partition heads by means of
an M6 bolt, without causing damage to the ceiling.

Notes
Hangers installed at 1500mm centres should be
considered for lightweight* installations only. SAS Emac
hangers must be used in conjunction with Emac hanger
brackets for installation at 1500mm centres.
Emac hangers should be installed a maximum of 300mm
from the edge of the system. Where two main runners
are clipped together, an Emac hanger should be installed
within 300mm.
It is considered good practice to stagger joints in
supporting structures.

Additional Loads
A lightweight* system can support additional loads
such as services up to a limit of 3kg. This limit is based
on a point or uniformly distributed load over 0.36m²,
positioned a minimum of 1000mm apart. This should be
considered for lightweight* installations only.
*“Lightweight” meaning base system only such as fleece
or pad tile backing. Where a ceiling supports the load
of services or for acoustically upgraded systems, Emac
hanger centres should be installed at 1200mm centres.
Hanger centres should always be considered when
applying additional loads.
For further advice please contact the SAS technical
department.
