MARBLE & GRANITE FIXINGSStangle Cladding Fixation includes design, calculation and production of several types of mechanical fixings andaccessories used for cladding purposes. Stainless and galvanized steel are among the various materials used inthe fabrication.Calculations are provided by our design office in Stuttgart, Germany.INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS FOR CLADDINGDESIGNTYPES OF FIXINGSDesign & Calculation StandardsReference is made to the following standards forthe design and structural calculations of NaturalStone Fixing Systems.Principles for the Fixing of Building CladdingThe fixing systems for building cladding arecomposed of several elements (angles, expansionbolts, screws, nuts, washers, etc), each of whichshall present the appropriate mechanical featuresin respect to the requirements posed by the specificproject. Any type of cladding, once fixed, is subjectto two primary types of load:- Permanent load (the dead load), due to the weightof the cladding itself;- Variable load (applied loads), due to the wind,thermal expansions, seismic motions, etc.American Standards:- Uniform Building Code 1997-Volume 2- ASTM A 276 Standard specification for stainlesssteel bars and shapes.- ASTM 666 Standard specification for annealed orcold-worked austenitic stainless steel sheets.- ASTM C1354 / C1354M - 09 Standard Test Methodfor Strength of Individual Stone Anchorages inDimension StoneBritish Standards:- BS 8298 Design and installation of natural stonecladding.- BS 1449 Part 2 Steel plates, sheets and stripsstainless and heat resisting.- BS 6105 Corrosion resistant stainless steelfasteners.- BS 5950 Structural use of steel work in building.- CP3, Chapter 5, Part 2 Wind loads.- BS 970 Part 3 1991, Mechanical properties forstainless steel.German Standards:- DIN 1045 Concrete and reinforced concrete,design and dimensioning.- DIN 1053 Masonry, design and dimensioning.- DIN 1055 Design loads for buildings.- DIN 18 516 Cladding for external walls.- DIN 18 800 Steel structures, design anddimensioning.- DIN 18 801

for wall cladding, such as wood, brick, metal plastic or imitation stone. Stone cladding is one of the most common materials used for wall cladding, as it is very durable, versatile, as well as long lasting. Cladding will make sure that the mechanical structure of the building remains sound, as it will be able to adapt to changing weather .
Cladding is an exterior finishing system meant to protect the underlying structure (like a home) and provide an aesthetically appealing finish. How long it lasts depends on the type of cladding, but most cladding systems are quite durable and last up to 50 years. While the term cladding is widely used in Europe and Australia, these

strength between the cladding and the base metal. The recommended minimum dilution is 10 to 15% (Ref. 2). In the case of stainless steel cladding, the ferrite con- tent of the cladding should also meet the recommended values, depending on the type of stainless steel, to avoid microfis- suring.
Composite Wall Cladding Boards. Jigsaw Or Handsaw Composite Wall Cladding Boards can be cut using any standard wood cutting tools. We recommend using a fine-toothed blade to get the cleanest finish to your cut edge. Spirit Level A spirit level is essential when installing your Battens to ensure a level support system.

NSI members commonly produce stone cladding, stone flooring, and stone countertops. Stone cladding is applied to a building exterior to separate it from the natural
