Selection must include corrosion, water, frost, UV and thermal movement, not only strength.
Method basis: Rigips/Knauf system guidance and Fischer/Hilti fixing-selection principles. Final parameters always come from the selected product data.
How to plan the installation
Choose a suitable material or coating, separate incompatible metals and seal façade penetrations within the system.
Common mistake
Do not hide a corroding fastener with sealant or anchor only in insulation.
Pre-start check
- Was the structural base identified rather than only the finish?
- Does the weight include contents and projection?
- Were services, edges and minimum spacing checked?
- Does the product data permit the base, direction and environment?
