VEW1 and VEW2 Parapet Posts
Verified by manufacturer 1 month ago
BS EN 1090 EXC2
Certificate type
Parapet posts.
Application
In most cases parapet posts are required to carry a uniformly distributed load along its height but in some instances it is necessary to consider a point load or a combination of both u.d.l. and point load acting on a post, this may be the case when designing spandrel posts in particular.
Description
Parapet and spandrel posts are designed as cantilevers and are available in both the VEW1 and VEW2 section types.
Larger base connections will be required to resist the ‘bending moment’ and careful consideration of the plate, fixings and base structure is required to ensure the post resists the applied loading.
With no head fixings, Vista VEW1 and VEW2 Parapet Posts are designed as propped cantilevers, using heavier base fixings to resist movement.
