 STONE CLADDING FIXING

1. Mechanical Fixing Methods-

The stone is fixed to the backup wall using
mechanical anchors.

2. Wet (Reinforce
Concrete)Methods-
The stone is fixed to the
backup wall using a system of
concrete and steel (Reinforce
Concrete).

3. Gluing / Thin Set Methods-

The stone is Glued directly to the backup wall (Interior walls only)

 Mechanical Fixing Methods

The stone is fixed to the backup wall ( Concrete or steel beams) using steel anchors that restrain vertical
and horizontal movement of the stone.

At most cases the stone is distant from the backup wall so an air cavity is created between the stone and
the backup wall. That air cavity enables better building ventilation and thermal & acoustic insulation.
