An interior ceiling or wall covering system comprising longitudinal parallel flexible panels formed by vapor barrier material applied to flange surfaces of ceiling joists or purlins or wall girts wherein the panels extend parallel to the longitudinal extent of the joists, purlins or girts and are secured to the flanges thereof by a pressure sensitive adhesive. Self drilling fasteners are driven into the structural member flanges at spaced apart intervals to provide backup support for securing the panels to the structural members. The enclosed space formed by the panels may be filled with loose, sprayed on or preformed batts of insulation material. The panels may be extended in directions normal to the purlins or girts by utilizing light gauge support strips to which the panels are applied with pressure sensitive adhesive and with spaced apart fasteners driven into the flanges of the structural members at points contiguous with the panels. The panels provide a lightweight aesthetically pleasing interior wall or ceiling covering closing an air space between the ceiling or wall panels and the panels themselves.

A method for covering exposed beam ceilings and walls of a building interior having a plurality of parallel spaced apart metal beams forming a structural support for at least one of said ceiling and wall, said beams each having generally planar flange portions forming an inner distal surface and the space between said distal surface and said outer covering being adapted to be occupied by insulation material, said method comprising the sequential steps of: applying a substantially continuous coating of liquid adhesive to a predetermined longitudinal length of the distal surface of a first adjacent pair of said beams; applying a sheet-like panel of a flexible reinforced multilayer covering material over the previously coated distal surfaces of said first beam pair by unrolling said covering material from a supply roll source of said covering material to position said panel in an adhesive adhering relation to said beams; and repeating the previous sequential application steps of applying said liquid adhesive and said panel for other adjacent pairs of said beams.
