Masonry & Concrete Cladding Materials Brick Masonry Stone Masonry Cut Stone Panels Precast Concrete Exterior Insulation & Finish System
Masonry Veneer Curtain Walls Structural Backup Wall • Shelf Angle • Anchored to Structure • Every Floor • Supports Brick Veneer • “Soft” Joint • Allows for movement • Structure Creep • Brick Expansion • Beam deflection • Erection tolerances
Metal Stud Backup Wall Construction Details
CMU Backup Wall • Masonry Veneer Details • CMU Backup Wall • Dampproofing • Insulation • Brick & Ties
Metal Stud Backup Wall • Metal Studs • Exterior Gypsum Sheathing • Insulation • Attachment of Interior Finishes • Advantages vs. CMU • Lighter • Insert Insulation, RI • Attachment of interior Finishes • Disadvantages vs. CMU • Typically Less Rigid (lateral resistance) • Susceptible to moisture damage • Shelf Angle • Anchored to Structure • “Hung” from the floor
Stone Panels Mounted on a Steel Subframe • Considerations • Non-structural “interior” Backup Wall needed • System Integrity depends on Joint Sealant
Monolithic Stone Cladding • Stone panels fastened direct to the structure • Bolted, or welded attachment • Angle bracing • Sealant required to seal joints • Non-structural backup wall req’d
Stone Cladding on Trusses • Thin sheets of Stone • Attached to steel trusses • Set like “panels” Posttensioned Limestone Panels
Thin Stone Facings Incorporated into Curtain Wall Mullions
Thin Stone Facings Used in Conjunction w/ Exterior Storefront
Thin Stone Facings Cast into (attached to) Precast Concrete Panels Architectural Precast Concrete Precast Concrete w/ Granite Facing
Ceramic Tile Facing On Precast Concrete
Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (GRFC) Reinforced with Glass Fibers Support System - often metal framing Light (easy to mount, less structural load) Extensive range of colors, textures, shapes
Exterior Insulation & Finish System - EIFS • System: • Foam Insulation adhered or fastened to a Backup wall (typically metal studs with gypsum sheathing or CMU) • Up to 4” thick; prevent ‘thermal’ bridging & permits articulation • Base coat(s) of stucco like material with reinforcing mesh • Exterior Finish coat of a stucco-like material • Appearance like stucco
EIFS Metal Stud Support Application of Insulation Base coat with reinforcing mesh Finished Application
EIFS Applications multitude of textures and colors
EIFS • Advantages • Can be applied to steel framing, conc., CMU... • Light system, insulation value • Economical, easy to install • Multiple finishes, textures/patterns, colors • Disadvantages • Designed as a barrier system - leakage damage • Solution – development of an internal drainage system with EIFS • Easily damaged (additional reinforcing mesh to counteract)
