the nominal suspended ceiling line dictated by vertical front face nominally set 1100mm back

It must have at least 2000mm clearance to the
underside (preferably 2100mm) and this will
require an available suspended ceiling height
of at least 2500mm AFFL. If this is not available
then the Project Manager and Design Manager
MUST be informed at the earliest possible
moment because there may not be enough
space to install monitors. The area immediately
behind the screens will protrude down to give
support to the monitor brackets but should be
40-50mm smaller all round so that it is not visible
from the counter.
See section 5.3 Standard Drawings, drawing no. ‘MAN–
032 Ceiling Fin and Downstand Limits’ and ‘MAN-33 Menu
Screen Downstand and Wiring’ for full positioning and
setting out information
The downstand can either be supplied by the
Joinery manufacturer in ‘flat pack’ form for site
assembly and installation, or it may be fabricated
on site to achieve exactly the same finished
result. The bulkhead and all associated fixings
must be specified to accept a dead load of at
least 80Kg for 3No. Menu screens. The section
behind the monitors (ONLY) should be made
deeper to provide support and protection.
NOTE: the three 32”monitors are each H = 500mm W =
760mm D = 70mm and should be mounted so that there is
no visible gap between them ( The mounting brackets are
adjustable to allow for this).
