Other ICC ESR Reports (ESR# 1289) Armstrong is the only manufacturer to have an ICC code-compliant system for suspended ceiling mounted drywall installations. What Does it Mean? With this report, you can now specify and install Armstrong Drywall Grid Systems on any job with IBC requirements.

Leader in seismic testing
Armstrong has partnered with the State University of New York, University at Buffalo, to test both standard and non-standard ceiling systems for seismic performance, including non-standard systems such as: Concealed Z Grid Systems, Custom T-bar Grid Systems, J-bar Grid Systems, Custom Linear Grid Systems, Custom Grid Modules, DP-59 Grid Systems, Access Grid Systems, and Canopy Cable Systems. Most of the grid systems are used for custom panels such as MetalWorks™ and WoodWorks®.
