Ok how big are the screens and how high up?

What type of building construction?

Chances are the construction will remain constant all the way up, some kind of structural frame, concrete floors with drywall construction spanning floor to soffit. If the spans and the wall is fire rated, entrances, stairwells, that kind of thing walls are likely to be 2 layers of board, feels really solid, dryline fixings should be OK but recommending anything requires more info.

Have you spoken to the maintenance bloke to see if he's got drawings?

Jings the questions are endless.

Currently talking to the building management guys but so far no one can find drawings and no one knows who the architect was either... :roll:
