6.4mm Thick Herculite Suspended Ceiling
The visible upper surface of a room, which can be an open slab soffit, or any type of dry lining fixed to floor joists or ceiling joists, or a suspended ceiling, or a stretched covering. A roof light can form part of a ceiling. Ceilings are usually painted white or a light colour.
In Revit, the ceiling is drawn using a Ceiling family which provides count, area and perimeter measurement to SkyBIM.
