Step 4:StrongBack installation.
The rugged backplane is connected by a 200 mm back-to-back lap and screwed together with two self-tightening wafer head screws.If a perimeter runway is used,the upper leg provides a suitable landing for the back.If you use an angle,provide a short lath Packer between the back and the angle,or place the lath near the perimeter angle.Once the fur belt is placed at the appropriate fixed point on the surface of the ceiling lath,lock the ceiling lath to the sturdy front edge of the back with a fur belt receiving slot.

Step 5:lath splicing.
Lath connections can be achieved by using lath connectors with a minimum length of 200 mm to allow each side of the docking nodes to overlap by 100 mm.These screws must be secured in place with wafer technology screws,at least two screws within 100 mm,and no more than 12 mm from the butt joint.All plate connections and reinforced back connections should be staggered.
