Timber Cladding with Concealed Fixings from Timbeck

Western Red Cedar Claddings Detailed for Concealed Fixings

TIMBECK, Australia's largest manufacturer of Western Red Cedar products, has recently completed a full product review and released a new series of conceal fixed cladding profiles.

In Australia, most profiled claddings have traditionally been face fixed where the biggest disadvantage of having to penetrate the main face has become more significant with the growing trend towards pre-coated products.

Being also a specialist in pre-coated timbers, TIMBECK acknowledged the necessity to address this issue.

Apart from reconfiguring profile detailing to accommodate concealing the fixing, there was also a requirement to analyse the structural properties of the new fixing recommendations to ensure compliance with building code requirements. TIMBECK engaged Colin MacKenzie of Timber Queensland to crunch those numbers.

The recommendations cover all of the new profiles in all regions of Australia - cyclonic and non-cyclonic. The data is comprehensively presented on the company's web site, www.timbeck.com.au

The full range of TIMBECK shiplap claddings are now also machined with a light easing on all corners. This attribute provides a slightly softer appearance and also contributes significantly to the adhesion of coating materials, important particularly with products exposed to external weather conditions.
