Hello, this is Kikuchi Soken Co., Ltd.

We are based in Ikebukuro, Tokyo, and provide interior construction and restoration services across the Kanto region and throughout Japan.

Today, we would like to introduce a new restaurant interior construction project carried out in Koishikawa, Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo.


In particular, this article will focus on the ceiling LGS (light gauge steel) framework and PB (plasterboard) installation, along with photos from the job site.


LGS Ceiling Framework Installation

The work began from a bare skeleton state, starting with the installation of LGS.
With numerous HVAC ducts and facility piping in the ceiling area, precision in layout and non-interference with existing systems were key to success.

Both pre-construction planning and on-site adjustments were crucial.

The framing extended to the ceiling, walls, and counter areas, all constructed with precise measurements.
Due to the high density of piping and ducts, such restaurant interiors often present complex challenges.


 

Plasterboard Installation (PB Work)

Next, after completing the LGS framework, PB was installed one panel at a time with care.
Special attention was required around electrical equipment and openings, making this a highly skilled process.
