Step 1: U-T-10 Floor Track is mounted at desired locations with Ramset stud nails or similar fasteners. Three floor attachments are required per ten-foot section. This 2-1/2" track receives std framing on 24-1/8" centers.

Step 2: After floor track installation is completed, ceiling channel is located by plumbing from the floor. After application of U-LS adhesive backed lite and sound seal, the ceiling channel is attached to the ceiling grid with pop rivets or screws. Three connections are required per ten foot section to provide lateral stability.

​

Step 3: If corner exists in run, install first studs approximately one foot from corner, If no corner is involved, place first stud approximately one foot from end wall. Plumb stud and attach to top and bottom channel with pop rivets. Remainder of studs will be automatically located by use of two rows of factory notched bridging without attachment to floor & ceiling channels.

​

Step 4: Modular end panels and corner panels are installed first. Remainder of panels are slipped into the ceiling double channel and rotated into place. The friction grip batten strips are driven into place with a carpeted one-foot long block or similar device. For later wiring or phone changes or total moves, battens snap out of the stud releasing the panels.
