Panels Composition
Trimoterm FTV STANDARD fireproof panels consist of two shallow profiled, coated sheet faces in thickneses of
0.5 mm, 0.6 mm or 0.7 mm. The steel sheet is bonded to the panel core made of non-combustible mineral wool
lamellas of class A1 (EN 13501-1).
All three layers make a solid panel in a thickness of 50 - 240 mm.
A protective polyethylene foil is applied to the panel surface to protect it during handling, transport and assembly.
The foil is removed after the assembly has been completed.
Panels can be up to 14 m long.

1.4.2 Coatings
Two types of steel sheet coatings are used:
- Polyester based marked as SP standard protection.
- Polyvinyl based idenfluoride marked as PVDF (available on request).
Steel sheet is preliminary hot galvanised and colour pre-coated. Thickness of a zinc layer is 275 g (Zn)/m2 (EN 10326,
EN 10327) while colour coating is performed by Coil Coating procedure. This denotes painting between cylinders
and drying in the furnace at a temperature of min. 200C.
All possible shades of the RAL scale are possible.
Standard Trimo colour scale includes the following colour shades (valid for polyester based protection - SP):
RAL 9002 - grey white, RAL 9010 - pure white, RAL 9006 - aluminium white, RAL 7035 - light grey, RAL 5010 - gentian
blue, RAL 1015 - light ivory.
Other paint coatings are available upon a special request (e.g. based on PVC, silicone, polyester, etc.) that may
have other properties.
On clients request or projects requirements also coatings such as Plastisol, Corus HPS200, Corus Celestia etc. are
available.

2.4 Required Number of Screws for Fixing a Faade to a Steel Structure According to DIN 1055
The number of screws per m1 of the HF3 profile is determined by the building type, the height of building above
the ground, the ratio of ridge height to width of a building and the distance between supports. An exact calculation
of the screws required is to be prepared by Trimo technical department (usual number of screws: from 2 to 3 / m1).
2.5 Arrangement of Spike Anchors for Direct Fixing of a Faade to a Concrete Structure
The type of an anchor is determined according to the panel thickness (Table 4), the required number of anchors
per m1 of HF3 profile, the type and height of a building above the ground, the ratio of ridge height to width of a
building and the distance between supports. An exact calculation of screws required can be prepared by Trimos
technical department.

Installation Recommendations
When erecting a horizontal faade the panels are to be correctly orientated so that water can drain (Fig. 3).
Fig. 3: Correct panel assembly on horizontal faades
A protective foil for the protection of colour coated surfaces against any possible damage caused during transport,
handling and assembly is applied to Trimoterm FTV STANDARD panels on both sides. The foil is to be removed from
the internal side before the assembly of an individual panel. The foil on the external side is removed directly
before the completion of works; it should be removed during the assembly on places where it is necessary, (e.g. in a
longitudinal joint of two panels, under screws, flashing ...) (Fig. 4).
If panels are to be stored for a long period of time, the foil should be removed after three months. If panels are
to be stored in the open air, they should be protected against the sun otherwise the removal of the foil may be
difficult.
Fig. 4: Removal of a protective foil
When cutting panels during assembly, only scissors and saws that do not heat the cutting edge to a high
temperature should be used (Fig. 5). High temperatures can destroy the anticorrosive protection in the immediate
surrounding of a cut. Therefore, the use of any grinding machines is prohibited for such purposes! All small metal
particles that appear as a result of cutting and drilling should be immediately removed from the surface of panels,
but certainly when the daily work has been comlpeted.
Marking and scratching with nails or similar sharp objects that can damage the protective coating layer is
prohibited.
Fig. 5: Prohibited and allowed tools for panel cutting
No.17/V-3/07-2006
3.2 Sealing
During assembly special attention should be paid to ensure the tight fitting of panels. There should be no air
space in the longitudinal joint between the neighbouring panels.
Sealing longitudinal joints between Trimoterm FTV STANDARD panels is described in details in Trimos Technical
Document 3. Sealing Trimoterm FTV panels is carried out regarding construction and physical conditions. When it
is necessary that a seal (Fig. 6 and 7) is inserted in the longitudinal joint in the inner (warm) faade side; the seal
should be inserted at the production stage of the panel. As a rule, a panel is delivered with a seal inserted. Panels
can be also supplied with a factory applied mastic seal in both joints.
Fig. 7: Method of inserting a seal in a panel
Seal
If butyl or silicone mastic seal is to be placed into the longitudinal joint, it should be applied in a way presented in
Fig. 8 and 9. Mastic seal is placed in an individual joint before the assembly of the following panel.
Fig. 8: Insertion of mastic seal in a panel
Points of installation for other sealing materials are evident from Trimo Standard details.

3.5.2 Fixing a Horizontal Faade to a Steel Structure using HF3 Aluminium Fxing Profile
A bespoke extruded HF3 aluminium profile is used for fixing a horizontal faade; the profile consists of a load-carrying
part (HF3/1) and a top hat (HF3/2). Loads of the panel are transferred to a profile over seals (Item 7); the profile is
fixed to the load-bearing structure of the building with self-tapping screws. The fixing method is shown in Fig. 18.
Dimensions of the profile with a cover are shown in Fig. 19.

Two profiles are joined by an additional connecting aluminium element (Fig. 26 and 27). The connecting element
is fixed to the end of the HF3/1 aluminium profile by self-tapping screw TDB 6.3 x 25. The front side of the HF3 profile
is sealed using polyurethane mastic seal (e.g. SIKAFLEX SF 221). Then the following HF3/1 aluminium fixing profile
is inserted and the connecting profile is fixed to it. Before completing the final profile fixing it is recommended
that a short piece of HF3/2 profile be inserted in the joint of the HF3/1 profile for levelling; this short piece is fixed
at least with a shift of 50 mm relating to the joint of HF3/1 profile.
The EPDM gasket is inserted in the grooves on the HF4/2 aluminium fixing profile. Mastic seal is mandatory in
the place of seal extension.
No.17/V-3/07-2006
Classical fixing where the screws are visible is also possible, but it is recommended only for buildings where
aesthetic rvalue is not relevant where such a method of fixing is required for stability reasons.

The place of fixing should be at least 30 mm away from the edge; the distance between the anchors depends on the
prescribed number of anchors per m1 of the profile.
WARNING:
- The assembly method described is suitable for Trimoterm FTV STANDARD panels for thickness ranging from 60 to
120 mm.
- Use of SPIKE anchors is allowed only for fixing to a solid concrete structure and never to brick walls!
- Lower values - data of the producer Stadler SFS - are to be considered for the concrete of poor quality.
- The prescribed distance of an anchor from the edge on the load-bearing structure should be min. 30 mm (Fig. 32).
- SDS drills of a 4.8 mm diameter of are to be used for drilling the holes (SFS Hartmetall - Hammerbohrer SDS 4.8 x L).
- Depth of a drill hole is min. 40 mm.
- The holes SHOULD NOT BE additionally drilled.
- Dust that appears during drilling should be removed from a hole before anchors are hammered in.
- Instructions of the anchor producer are to be taken into account when fixing anchors.

4.3 Transport
Transport of Trimoterm FTV STANDARD faade panels from the factory to a building site is carried out by trucks or
rail. The load should be fixed on a means of transport by fabric carrying belts. A lift or crane truck can be used for
carrying of stacks and a fork lift truck for the transport of stacks shorter than 6 m. Moving or pushing of stacks
with points of forks or use of steel wires for carrying stacks by a crane is not allowed, but only load bearing belts of
suitable load-bearing capacity. Special attention is to be paid to the centre of gravity, since it should be between
the forks or the load bearing belts.
Only one stack may be carried at a time!
When unloading a truck the tarpaulin should be completely removed from the vehicle. The carrying frame of the
tarpaulin should also be completely (also from sides) removed so that panels cannot get damaged when lifted.
WARNINGS:
- Only one stack may be carried at a time.
- Off-loading and site manupulation by a forklift truck is allowed only for stacks of a length up to 6 m.
- Lifting by all kinds of cranes is to be always carried out with fabric carrying belts.
- Unloading instructions for handling are to be strictly followed. They are attached to a stack and any other
handling can easily cause damage.
- When stacks are received on a building site a recipient is obliged to complain about all visible defects to a
driver.
4.4 Storage
When storing Trimoterm FTV STANDARD panels the following should be considered:
- It is recommended that the stacks be stored in their original packaging, which ensures suitable water tightness.
- When storing panels in the open air, a cardboard cover protects them against the sun; if there is no cover, it may
be difficult to remove the protective foil. It is recommended that the foil be removed after three months.
- Stacks are to be arranged on the flat and solid ground so that a stack cannot sink under its own weight and slip to
the ground which is especially dangerous in winter when ice can collect on the foil.
- Possible ways of arranging stacks are presented in Fig. 39.
