Ventilated façade/ Kerf fixing system

- Laminam porcelain stoneware slab

Exterior cladding made with laminate porcelain obtained by wet grinding of clayish raw materials, granite and metamorphic, feldspar-containing rocks and ceramic pigments. Compacted by a special shaping in a compactor and sintering at 1200°C, with hybrid (gas/electric) firing. With single gauge square edge and with a structural reinforcement made of fibreglass applied using a controlled industrial process (fibreglass mat applied to the back).

Nominal thickness 12mm.

Size: 810x3240mm or sub-formats.

Laminam SpA will provide the designer and the Works Supervision with the graphics and the resistance design values of the slab related to the system adopted.

- Supply and installation of the sub-structure

- Measurements, sizing, executive design with processing of the parts list of quantities and sizes.

- Sub-structure of aluminium or steel profiles, of suitable shape and section, suitably sized following a structural calculation, fixed to the support by means of L-shaped brackets in aluminium or steel, natural or painted on request. These brackets retain the profiles, allowing for the thermal expansions by means of fixed and sliding anchor points. Wall fixing anchors suitably sized and suitable for the type of support itself.

- Mechanical attachment achieved using stainless steel or equivalent clamps/concealed continuous profiles to fix the cladding slabs to the sub-structure. The clamps/continuous profiles will be attached to the profiles with rivets or self-threading screws. The centre distance between the clamps and consequently of the aluminium sub-structure, must be determined in accordance with the installation site, the height of the building and the wind pressure. Minimum joint between the slabs 5 mm.

- Supply of intrados in Laminam slabs.

- Installation of the sub-structure and Laminam slabs, including labour, equipment, fixing elements (anchors, screws, etc.), cutting of the slabs.
