Definitely incorrect,center between the slots,once the tab is created separate the tab and cut one side off so its easy to rivet together once you've opened up other cut main.
Please don’t field splice likes this. Now you have a slot right at the joint. Measure back 3 inches from slot use a pocket square mark it, cut it. open the inside up feed new main into cut one. Then you have 6” increments. Squeeze it back together, punch a hole and put pop rivet in it.
Also just throwing up a different type of main your existing tees may not snap in the slot properly. And will have to use tees from other manufacturer. Just use same type of grid if you can and splice it right
Hi there I was wondering if you could give me some information ,,, if a room is 7 metre in length and 5 meters in width with my full tiles dropped in length ways gives me 6.6 metres with a 200mm rip either end then width ways gives me 4.8 with my tiles dropped in leaving a 100mm rip each side , is there any way to get that perimeter equal on both length and width ways or do I just go with the 200mm rip on the length and 100mm rip on the width and no other way to go about it , thanks

Hi there, This video is to show how to connect main runners from 2 different manufacturers so the tabs would be different and therefore would not clip into each other.
@@CeilingTilesUKShurdington or if not perfect eith touch with white gaps or take down the whole ceiling and start again, I need to do this in a few weeks on a job, this will help
Because they are 2 different types of grid , 1 is armstrong and 1 is usg. Had to do this on remodels when new grid is different than old and not completely demoed
This was very helpful to me. Couldn't find any other video that mentions ANYthing about how the main runners should mate up to the wall angles, and how they have to be cut. Thanks for the great video!
