9 MASONRY CONNECTIONS Load Bearing Padstone. Flange Fixing Direct to Padstone (Chemical Anchor or Similar). GENERAL UltraBEAM Floor Beams should be designed as opposing pairs tied at mid span as shown on page 7 prior to the laying of Floor Decking. Floor Decking must be securely fixed with Self Tapping or similar screws in accordance with Decking Manufacturers recommendations so that lateral restraint is afforded to the UltraBEAM top (compression) flange at no more than 1000mm maximum fastener spacing. All fixing Connection Bolts to be plated M12 Grade 8.8 set screws with 2 number washers fitted...

PRIMARY SUPPORTS FOR SUSPENDED CEILINGS Where a structural support system is required to support a Suspended Ceiling UltraBEAM Sections provide a light weight and cost effective solution. Section may be supplied as pre-engineered lengths cut and pierced to customer requirements or supplied in plain lengths for ‘on-site’ working as required. Standard order forms for detailing UltraBEAM Sections are available. FOR CLEATED END SUPPORT CONNECTION UltraBEAM Section should be fixed as opposing pairs with lateral restraint afforded by either our SRS Type Strut fitted between pairs or by screw fixing...

STRUCTURAL SECTIONS FRAMING EXTERNAL WALLING SYSTEMS. Structural Sections Framing is available in Non-Continuous Infill or Continuous frame design options and provide support for most types of exterior cladding - including masonry and rain screen systems. Suitable for low and high rise projects, the systems offer designers a cost effective, fast and eco-friendly alternative to traditional construction methods. Unlike timber, galvanised steel is inherently resistant to moisture and will not rot or warp, however like timber the lightweight steel sections are easy to handle and may be site worked...

Structural Sections Framing Non-Continuous Infill System creates a steel framed stud and track system suitable for use in construction projects where conventional blockwork might be considered. The lightweight ‘dry’ system offers savings in material weight, construction time and labour requirements. The system is fixed between primary structure members and is generally located at the ‘slab edge’ to facilitate the fixing of insulation and external cladding materials which can run continuously outside the main structure if desired. Services slots (100mm x 40mm) located 600mm from the ends of stud...

STRUCTURAL SECTIONS FRAMING EXTERNAL WALLING SYSTEMS. Structural Sections Framing-Continuous System is eminently suitable for buildings where the floor area needs to be maximised. Cleats are attached to the outer faces of the floor slabs using fixings determined by structural calculations. The continuous vertical sections are in turn attached to the cleats using appropriate screw fixings located through slotted holes to facilitate deflection within the floor slabs. Window apertures are formed by fixing lengths of track section at the head and sill positions. Short lengths of stud section are...
