Framing a basement ceiling for drywall


Posted by Dennis on January 24th, 2001 10:12 AM

The ceiling in my unfinished basement is 9'. However drain pipes and HVAC ducts hang below the joists above. I like a finsihed ceiling as opposed to a drop ceiling. I will create access panels to shutoffs, etc.

Any tips on how to frame a new ceiling 1' below the existing floor joists?
