Hi,
I have installed hollowcore slabs (purchased from Spanwright) in my new two story house.
To run electrical cables etc and fix plasterboard, I was planning to use a wooden grid that would be fixed to the underside of the hollowcore slabs. This is common practice and is how I have seen it done in the past.
After talking to a friend last night, I understand that a lot of people are now replacing the wooden grid with a metal one (which is quicker and easier to install).
Has anybody out there gone for the metal grid option? I would be interested in any experiences that people have and also on the costing as well.
Thanks,
D
