CEILING PANELCeiling panel is an exterior or interior architectural feature, generally the horizontal underside of any construction element. It is a structure to fill the space between the ceiling and the top of cabinets mounted on the wall, as is the material connecting an exterior wall to the edge of the roof under the eaves. In architecture, it is the underside of any construction element. In popular use, it refers to the material forming a ceiling from the top of an exterior house wall to the outer edge of the roof, i.e., bridging the gap between a home's siding and the roofline, otherwise known as the eaves. When so constructed, its material is typically screwed or nailed to rafters known as lookout rafters. Its exposure profile (from wall to fascia) on a building's exterior can vary from a few centimeters (2–3 inches) to 3 feet or more, depending on construction. It can be non-ventilated or ventilated, to prevent condensation. It may include the grill that covers the venting opening on the bottom. Its joist along the corners connect it to the walls.

WHY METAL CEILING PANEL?By now we all know metal is always better than wood if you have the money. Twenty years ago, metal ceiling panels are used only in gasoline stations because it costs around a thousand pesos per square foot. Since then, wood prices are continually increasing because of government regulations to improve our environment's health. Meanwhile, metal prices continue to decrease because of efficient recycling, mass production and cheaper transportation. Additionally, we have better tools to measure and to make metal handiwork easier. Compound this with the ever increasing cost of a house builder's services - there is no reason to choose wood over metal in 2019.
