Abstract
A suspended ceiling system utilizing main runners with cross runners, said main runners and cross runners having an inverted-T configuration with a web with flanges extending from opposite sides thereof and a plurality of metal panels. Each of the metal panels is provided with a suspension arrangement adjacent a pair of opposite edges to enable hanging the panel from flanges of adjacent main runners to conceal the runners. The suspension arrangement is such that space is provided to enable disassembling a panel from the system without disturbing adjacent panels. The panel may be provided with a stop arrangement which would prevent unintentional disengagement of the suspension arrangement from a flange of the main runner.
