4 Classification and marking
4.1 Classification, codes and specifications
The furring is divided into three categories: wall furring, ceiling furring and straight-clip ceiling furring according to the installation methoddivided into C-type, CH-type, F-type, L-type, T-type, U-type and V-type according to the section type. The classification and specifications of common furring products are shown in Table 1. Other specifications and dimensions may be determined through negotiation between the supplier and the purchaser, and the relevant technical indicators shall meet the requirements of products with similar specifications.
