Stop for unknown, wet, cracked or crumbling bases, reinforcement, suspected services or unexplained cavities.
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
Professional verification is required for balustrades, handrails, person-supporting items, heavy overhead loads and engineered façades.
Common mistake
Choosing to stop is part of a safe installation, not a failure.
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?
