StoneClip fixing brackets for Bluestone cladding insurance

The above wall is being constructed on a new high rise in inner Brisbane. The
wall is to be a little over 4000 mm high and the panels are 1.200 x600 mm x 30 mm thick, with
a weight of 60 kgs/panel. The total down weight when completed will be in the range of 360
k/panel on the bottom panel when finished.
With the addition of 2 x 28 mm set size StoneClips/panel to help the chosen glue or type of
epoxy chosen to fix the panels to the substrate, there would be an added cost of $16.50/m²
to the project in mechanical fixing brackets, which is very good insurance for product of this
weight which is being installed at around 15-20 mm cavity. The danger in this case is the 3rd
row if it is installed in the same day - too much load for the glue to do both jobs asked of it;
support the panel being fixed and hold the 2 panels below before it is fully set and reached it strength.
The 28 mm set clips installed with a 15 - 20mm cavity in the Eco-StoneClip method are capable of
holding at the very least of 30kg/clip, which is the range of what is required in this case.
