TRAC Suspended Ceiling Systems

About the Product

TRAC ceiling systems set the trend and command a very high market share in India. The TRAC range of metal and
Glass Reinforced Gypsum ceilings are specially designed for the Indian market, taking into account of building

design, construction practices and weather conditions. INTERARCH introduced TRAC lineal metal ceilings in 1984.

Applications
The Right Ceiling for the Right Application

There is a TRAC ceiling for every need. Ceilings systems are available in gypsum, coated steel and coated

aluminium. TRAC ceilings are available in a wide range of panel types for including lineal ceilings, clip-in or lay-in tile
and plank ceilings, and C-grid (band raster) ceilings. Metal ceilings are manufactured in aluminium and steel with coil

coated or powder coated finishes. All metal ceilings are available in a perforated version for sound absorption, and
are designed to integrate with standard lighting fixtures, air diffusers, and partitions.

TRAC ceilings are suitable for use in interior and exterior areas in offices, hospitals, schools, restaurants, shops,

hotels, airports and other buildings. TRAC ceilings are also suitable for industrial use and are specially suited to
aggressive environments inside factory buildings.

Advantages
Trac - The Environment Friendly Ceiling

All TRAC ceilings are manufactured from fully recyclable materials. TRAC ceilings are pre-painted and fully prefabricated in the factory. The ceiling systems are friendly to handle, and will not promote growth of bacteria or fungi.

TRAC ceilings exhibit excellent corrosion resistance. They can withstand very high humidity (upto 100%) and are
suitable for use in outdoor areas.

Concealing
Services

Ceilings are primarily installed to conceal services such as HVAC ducting and lighting. The covering up of services
necessitates access to the ceiling plenum. Accessibility to the ceiling plenum for maintenance is the most important

factor while selecting a suspended ceiling system. All TRAC ceilings are designed to allow easy access. Panels or
tiles may be lifted out or clipped off for maintenance or installation of concealed services.

Aesthetics

Ceilings are often

provided to create
attractive interiors.

TRAC ceilings

offer several options to the designer to match aesthetics with function.

Acoustics
Suspended acoustical ceilings serve to provide sound absorption on the most useful surface in a room. They help in

reducing reverberant sound intensity within a room. TRAC ceilings are the most efficient sound absorbing ceilings
available in the market today. Human activity in offices and large public spaces generates noise resulting in reduced
work efficiency. Acoustical (sound absorbing) ceiling systems help in reducing build-up of reverberant noise because
of their excellent sound absorbing properties. This leads to a better working environment and reduced annoyance
due to high noise levels.

Fire Resistance

All TRAC ceilings provide Class 1 Surface Spread of Flame in accordance with BS 476-part 7 (1987). The materials
are incombustible as per BS 476-part 4 (1970) and satisfy Class O as per BS 476-part 6 (1989).

months.
The terminal 3 project required multiple handling of pre-engineered construction activities spread over
an area of almost 5 square km's and over almost 20 active work fronts on different parts of the
building each with their own dedicated resources for power, construction equipment and manpower
teams, all deployed by Interarch PMC. The Interarch project management team deployed more than
200 engineers at the site, including heavy construction equipment, and over 2000 skilled workmen to
execute
the
project
work
successfully
with
safety
and
quality.
All site coordination was handled from its central control at the DIAL T-3 site office and wireless
communication over local radio's assisted construction and coordination of the entire project from
material handling and feed to front, to lifting, assembly and final crane lifts to the building location
and
rooftop.
Interarch shifted the entire team of senior in-house design, manufacture, project management and
construction experts to the DIAL site for a period of over 10 months to handle the structural steel
execution as well as the roofing of the gigantic terminal building. By coordinating its outputs for an
ever-changing airport site, which required constant pre-planning, planning and then further replanning to cater to the dynamic site conditions along with constant design and redesign requirements
from the customer for interface details and adaptability and compatibility to various construction
aspects, Interarch was able to give lightening fast response times and streamline its system
dynamically to cater to the project from its design support set up's directly at site.
The IGI-Terminal 3 building is the second largest integrated terminal building of its kind in Asia and its
roof
covers
an
area
of
over
45
acres.
Once Interarch completed the structural steel design, in-house manufacturing and execution for the
steel
package
of
the
project,
it
commenced
operations
on
roofing.
Interarch operations were deployed after completion of its pre-engineered steel structural systems to
roof the gigantic building in a world-class insulated 7 layer roofing system completed in Alluminium.
The entire roof system comprised 7 independent insulating layers, laid layer by layer, by hand, over a

coverage area of over 45 acres. That led to almost 7 x 45 = 315 acres of roofing laid in less than 12
months. In engineered terms, almost 1.3 million square meters of roofing came together using some
of
the
most
tough
to
handle
roofing
material
in
the
world.
Interarch project management deployed over 30 roofing teams totaling over 1500 people at their
peak, to roof the entire building.

designed completely in-house by Interarch the requirements of the customer and their architects,
however, none of the bulk material in the roofing system were produced by Interarch.
