With key criteria including the reduction of ambient noise, and accessibility but security of services to consider, Feilden Clegg Bradley specified SAS metal ceiling tiles for use in the corridors and offices within the school and sixth form areas of the new City Academy, Bristol.
The City Academy is designed to accommodate over 1,250 pupils, including provision for new sports and arts facilities.
The clip-in modular SAS tiles were deemed suitable for this school environment as they slide along a concealed suspension system to provide access to the ceiling void. This allows large areas to be accessed for maintenance and helps avoid damage such as scratching.
The tiles offer a hygienic, wipe clean solution. Furthermore, their perforated patterns help achieve acoustic absorption, and their bevelled edge provides a clean, modern look.
