Default Help finding the ceiling joists.

Hi,

I've a similar problem... I tried the multiple drill hole technique
and found what I thought was a joist, but it seems to be a really
thin strip of metal running the length of the ceiling. Has anyone got
any thoughts this as I can't find wood? Only these metal strips...

Cheers


Maybe not terrible helpful, but you can use magnets to find the metal
strips.

And if it's thin strips of metal, there probably are no actual joists
(in a suspended ceiling).

2p.
