Working in conjunction with companies such as RFA, HALFEN and ANCON we can offer advice on the practicalities of incoporating such units. We can also supply fixings as part of the contract package. Structural Use Semi Dry All cast stone heads and cill are decorative and are not designed to be load bearing. Quoins, Plinths and String Courses can be used in load bearing situations when used in compression. All units are reinforced where necessary with handling reinforcement. Structural Use Wetcast The same applications as semi-dry but has the ability to be loadbearing through incorporation of reinforcement bars and mesh. Weathering Many factors influence the way cast stone weathers, such as design, exposure, climate and surrounding. All pigments used are colourfast and durable and conform to BS1014. PPC architectural dressings will weather in a similar manner to natural stone, when exposed to similar conditions. Efflorescence As with all reconstructed stone and cement based products there is the possibility that the temporary phenomenon known as efflorescence will occur causing lightening of colour. This will reduce over a period of time with natural weathering Health & Safety The contractor shall ensure that health, safety and welfare measures required or by virtue of the provision of any enactment or regulation or the working rules of the industry are complied with.
