Characteristics of Precast Easifix
Characteristics of Precast Easifix

 

The panel illustrated left was restrained into a vertical wall, floor, ceiling and the safewall system using an end post. This was secured using boss sections, top and bottom to create a secondary vertical jamb.

Precast Easifix panels always require a perimeter border. The reference band is used around the perimeter of panels to bond the blocks together. This is hidden within the channel and the U channel clamp securely holds Precast Easifix panels in place. The channel is available as standard in white but can be powdercoated to any RAL or BS colour. (Dependent on lead time and quantity.) The U channel works in two pieces, the main section is fixed to the perimeter opening. The cover plate is bolted to the first section, creating a clamp. The U channel can be left exposed as this picture shows.

Connecting joints are dependent on the size and type of panel. This panel was manufactured in three pieces with two horizontal connecting joints. The 4mm joints require grouting after the panels are installed.

Alternatively, plasterboard cover strips can be slotted over both sides of the U Channel and then the plasterboard slots behind the cover strip.
