Can Armstrong ceilings support the weight of luminaires and air grilles?

Luminaires can normally be supported on the ceiling grid subject to certain qualifications. Armstrong has a datasheet which outlines our recommendations that is available from your ITS group. Dynamic fittings such as active air grilles should not be supported directly onto the grid because vibration in the grilles could be transferred to the grid and generate unacceptable noise.
