Verified by manufacturer 2 months ago
IG Brick On Soffit System (B.O.S.S.) is a prefabricated brick slip unit designed to be fixed to IG's Welded Masonry Support.
Application
B.O.S.S. is used to achieve brick soffits, deep reveals and flying beams on a masonry facade. Suitable for use on residential buildings under 18 metres (11 metres in Scotland).
Description
B.O.S.S. is a lightweight, stainless steel, prefabricated brick slip soffit system designed to be quickly and easily bolted to IG’s Welded Masonry Support (WMS) to create deep reveals, soffits and flying beams on masonry facades.
Manufactured offsite, the prefabricated components are delivered to site complete with brick slips adhesively bonded to the stainless steel carrier unit. These BBA approved lightweight components facilitate fast and efficient installation and integrate seamlessly with brickwork constructed onsite.
Installation time onsite can be reduced by up to 90% and the need for mechanical lifting is removed as B.O.S.S. units are on average 70% lighter than equivalent concrete units.
Features and benefits:
- Simplicity of installation.
- No brick cutting required onsite.
- Support steelwork is completely hidden.
- Adjustable on all axes.
- All brick patterns and various soffit sizes achievable.
- Blends seamlessly with brickwork constructed onsite.

Typical Design Solutions | B.O.S.S. Stretcher 65-327. Guidance for specification option: Brick slip masonry support range. Size: 65 x 327 mm. Units to create a stretcher bond can be designed to suit a one, two and three brick deep soffit. Adjacent soffit units are designed to interlock, blending seamlessly together once the brickwork is pointed. B.O.S.S. Header 65-215. Guidance for specification option: Brick slip masonry support range. Size: 65 x 215 mm. Units to create a header bond can be designed to suit a one, two and three brick deep soffit. The header bond detail on the B.O.S.S. unit differentiates the soffit from the brickwork on the main façade, and are designed to blend seamlessly together once the brickwork is pointed. B.O.S.S. Rowlock 102-215. Guidance for specification option: Brick slip masonry support range. Size: 102 x 215 mm. Units to create a rowlock bond can be designed to suit a one, two and three brick deep soffit. The rowlock bond detail on the B.O.S.S. unit differentiates the soffit from the brickwork on the main façade, and are designed to blend seamlessly together once the brickwork is pointed. B.O.S.S. Soldier 215-21. Guidance for specification option: Brick slip masonry support range. Size: 215 x 215 mm. Units to create a soldier bond can be designed to suit a one, two and three brick deep soffit. The soldier bond detail on the B.O.S.S. unit differentiates the soffit from the brickwork on the main façade, and are designed to blend seamlessly together once the brickwork is pointed. B.O.S.S. Half Lap Bond 215-327. Guidance for specification option: Brick slip masonry support range. Size: 215 x 327 mm. Units to create a half lap bond can be designed to suit a one, two and three brick deep soffit. The half bond detail on the B.O.S.S. unit differentiates the soffit from the brickwork on the main façade, and are designed to blend seamlessly together once the brickwork is pointed. |
