Tate structural ceiling grids suspend heavy data center infrastructure, such as cable trays, busway, containment and lighting, from one pre-designed ceiling system instead of custom-built strut. LG2 sells, supplies and installs Tate structural ceilings.
Data center infrastructure
A data hall hangs a lot from its ceiling: cable trays, busway, containment and lighting. A structural ceiling replaces custom-built, on-site support systems such as strut with a grid that is designed and specified in advance.
Tate's structural ceilings provide connection points to the building structure, a continuous slot for suspending equipment, and a grid for ceiling tiles, lights and return air grilles, so one system can carry both the infrastructure and the finished ceiling.
Tate offers aluminum and steel profiles with different load capacities and spans. Datasheets, spec documents, installation guides and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are published for each.
Cable tray and busway
Suspend cable trays, bus bars and other heavy accessories from a continuous slot.
Containment roof
Support hot aisle containment and its ceiling panels from above.
Lighting and grilles
Hang light fixtures and return air grilles from the same structural grid.
Finished ceiling
Hold ceiling tiles, lights and return air grilles in the same grid.
The next evolution of Tate Grid, with a sleek profile and increased load capacity. Part of Tate's Lower Embodied Carbon (LEC) range, made with recycled aluminum.
A heavy-duty aluminum ceiling grid with a strut-like profile: lightweight, strong and easy to transport and install.
Spans up to 8 ft with few connection points to the building structure, and a two-layer continuously threaded slot on the underside so multiple threaded rod diameters can hang different equipment.
For applications where large, heavy items need to be suspended in a building, designed and specified in advance instead of built on site from strut.
A galvanized steel strut profile whose welded flanges support tiles, light fixtures and return air grilles, so one system replaces two separate ceilings.
