Stone i

Exercising good judgment when selecting theparticular stone, determining the quarrying and fabrication techniques, designing the method ofattachment, and installing all components correctly maximizes these benefits. A properly executedstone cladding is designed and inst

It is an overview of cur

5、renttechniques and a review of minimum requirements for sound stone engineering and construction. Theguide does not list all possible methods of attachment nor does it provide a step-by-step procedure forstone anchor engineering. Knowledge gained from new engineering designs, testing of applications

Provisions of otherdimension stone industry publications should be reviewed andconsidered in addition to this Guides recommendations. Allindustry information should be considered with

30、 respect toproject specifications and requirements. If provisions of suchpublications differ from those in this Guide, it is acceptablepractice to follow the publications provisions if recommendedby the stone specialist defined in 4.4 for the specific conditionsof the individual project.4.3.3 Becaus

31、e stone properties vary, the range and variabil-ity of pertinent properties of the stone proposed for use shouldbe determined by testing and statistical methods that areevaluated using sound engineering principles. Use recent testdata where applicable. Always reference proven performanceof relevant

35、re the performance record of the specifiedsystems and materials is not known or questionable;4.4.1.3 When multiple cladding materials occur on the samefacade;4.4.1.4 If the supporting structure or backup is more flexiblethan L/600 in any direction;4.4.1.5 If extreme loading could be caused by seismi

Selection Considerations5.1 Review the following factors before selecting a sto

37、nematerial, an anchoring system and subframe system from thoseoptions being considered:5.1.1 Have the stone materials under consideration per-formed well on existing buildings in similar exposures?5.1.2 Have the different anchoring and subframe systemsunder consideration performed well on existing b

38、uildings insimilar exposures?5.1.3 How is the performance of the anchor and its engage-ment into the stone affected by installation and handlingprocedures?5.1.4 How are the performance and appearance of thesubframe, the anchors connection to the subframe, and thesubframes connections to the building

39、 structure affected bydifferential movements?5.1.5 Do the physical characteristics of the stone measuredby standard tests show the material has structural limitations?Which physical properties are important to the application, andwhich test methods measure those properties and their vari-ability? Re

40、fer to Table 2 for standard test methods andproperties they measure.5.1.6 Do the physical characteristics of the stone not mea-sured by standard tests suggest the material may have long-term durability concerns? Other properties, including (but notlimited to) resistance to chemical attack, weather-r

41、elatedstrength reduction, and dimensional changes, might be evalu-ated by special laboratory tests designed to obtain data undersimulated conditions.5.1.7 Does the project location or shape develop exceptionaldesign wind, or seismic loads, or does the stone materialrequire higher safety factors than

42、 other stones not anticipatedby statutory codes?5.1.8 Do the anchor and subframe system accommodatebuilding dimensional changes caused by wind and seismicsway, thermal and elastic deformation, creep and shrinkage,and their combined effects?5.1.9 Will contiguous facade elements such as windows,other

43、claddings, window supports, or window-washing andwall maintenance provisions influence the stone cladding, itsanchoring or subframe system?5.1.10 Do the anchor or subframe systems penetratewaterproofing, facilitate internal moisture collection, or pen-etrate wall insulation and cavity ventilation?5.

44、1.11 Do the materials used resist corrosion, galvanic andchemical reactions?5.2 The following general rules are helpful in the design ofanchors and connections:5.2.1 The simplest connections are usually the best.5.2.2 Make connections with the fewest components.5.2.3 Use the fewest possible anchor c

45、onnection types inany particular project.5.2.4 Provide for adjustability in connections to accommo-date tolerances in materials and construction.5.2.5 Distribute the weight of stone or panel systems on nomore than two points of connection where possible.5.2.6 Make anchor connection locations accessi

46、ble to thecraftsman.5.2.7 Design connection components and stone sinkages toavoid entrapping moisture.5.2.8 At friction connections with slotted holes parallel tothe direction of load, specify proper bolts, washers, slot size,and bolt installation procedure.5.3 Safety FactorsIn order to design an an

47、choring system,the variabilities of the materials being considered should beknown and compensated. This is accomplished through the useof an appropriate safety factor to be applied to the stone, theanchorage, and the backup structure.5.3.1 Table 3 shows generally accepted Safety Factors forstone cla

48、dding by stone type. These factors are recognized byindustry specialists and publications and are based upon pastsuccessful practice. These factors are based on a maximumC1242 184coefficient of variation of 20 % when project samples are testedin accordance with Test Methods C99 or C880 for sedimenta

49、rystones in thicknesses of 2 in. (50 mm) or greater. Safety factorscould be changed when conditions listed under 5.3.2 or 5.3.3exist in the project.5.3.2 Exemplar Availability: A safety factor could be modi-fied if the long-term performance of the stone material, anchorand backup system cannot be verified by well-performingexemplars. Consult a stone specialist as defined in 4.4 for theappropriate change in safety factor.5.3.3 Structural Variables: A safety factor could be modi-fied if specific conditions exist on the project different fromthose upon which Table 3 value
